Jordylass.... if were travelling from roughly the same place, we can go together... that means if we get lost then we dont look as much like tw*ts :rotfl: :rotfl:
The hair extension message board did a central meet up in London, Hyde Park, as people were coming from all over the country, and even abroad so i thought London was a good idea but birmingham or Manchester is a bit more centrally located i imagine0 -

Anywhere near shops is fine by me.

I would be in, in prinicple, but I am away in October (conceiving baby he he) and have reporting rounds (travelling every Tuesday and Thursday to London, Birmingham and beyond) in August, September and November :-( Would be up for a West Country meet though if we had enough people (Jo, MonkeyGirl?) :-)Kirsty, Taunton, xxx0

Vicky - Snap!
The shops in manchester are my worst enemy... damn you evil temptresses.
Leeds has nice shops too... and York is nice.... and and and.. erm... yeah
ive confused myself to back off to bed me thinks0 -
Thanks for the support guys. I think the last meet was in York - I think 4 people went. (I'm sure it was an Old Style meet, as opposed to a general MSE meet but haven't searched the boards yet)
Manchester is good - lots of shops at both ends of the spending spectrum as well as slightly more out of town 'malls' (yeuch, don't ya just hate americanisms).
So, what do you want me to look at? Cheapy overnight accommodation for those who need it? Camp sites ?
Pubs ? Cheese shops? I seem to have roped myself into the organisation here, but I think 3 months just about gives me enough time 
Oooh, shall I pm Martin and ask him to join us? I know he visits us here - maybe he's a true/repressed Ol' Styler too

I dont mind helping to organize either if it takes a weight off anybodys shoulders.0

I thought one of the pre-requisites of an MSE meet was being close to a Lakeland limited shop.....0
