    hi Oggy - this is the 4th outing of the DFW'ers and we've hit Blackpool, Glasgow, Birmingham and now it's Leeds turn!!

    I think next time should be Manchester, nice and central with lots of cheap bars.

    Manchester would be cool! As would Newcastle.
    When are we getting the MSE world tour t shirts printed then?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Centre of Leeds to centre of Newcastle is 1hr 40 by car (not rush hour; no breaking speed limits) - this doesn't include time for parking.

    It's just too far oop north for all the southerners... ;)

    Ahem, some of us Southerners have discussed an Anglian meet in January next year.

    There's a certain stalwart poster in Norfolk and a few others around that way.

    So long as they're nice, and the trains are trains and not buses...
