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

I'd probably need overnight accommodation, but around then it would probably be a bed as opposed to using our deluxe tent (which I can only put up when OH is there to help me :rotfl: :rotfl: ).

Definitely pubs - and a restaurant?

If you need any help doing research TM just PM me.

There's a new Lakeland shop opened in Manchester.

Thanks for the link Trow - they're all showing £26 rooms at the moment, but maybe that's cos it isn't 6pm :doh:

If those of you want to pm me and let me know what dates you can make it, that'd be a great start (saves blocking up this thread) then I can post the most popular dates. Shall we start by looking at Saturday/Sunday's in October?

I really want to cry now

Guess I won't be coming... Have a drink on me won't you?

Durrr - brain working uber-slow this morning, so just had another thought.

If the Travelodge £10 per room offer is only on for 8 weeks, that takes us until 22nd Sept. I haven't checked it out yet so don't know, but maybe give me some dates in September? Then we can decide on the most popular from there. If anyone else knows of any other cheapo room offers, then please let me know

Camping/ caravanning would be great, if anyone else is up for it, lift share from different regions great idea too, no problem going together Ancasta
