Who's going to YORK? Old Style gathering: Poll
Comments
-
Can I come too, date permitting? I love York and haven't been for years! Would have to be an overnighter for me, as live NE Scotland. March would be good for me.0

I agree with Fran, the Micklegate loosk nice & is central to public transport too
**Edited due to "pubic" transport spelling error!**Post Natal Depression is the worst part of giving birth:p
In England we have Mothering Sunday & Father Christmas, Mothers day & Santa Clause are American merchandising tricks:mad: Demonstrate pride in your heirtage by getting it right please people!0 -
It's just occured to me that the weather may not be brilliant in March - would end of April/May be better?0
-
The weather can be (is!) crap in any month! When is Easter next year (cos there's school hols). Also leaving it until May would make it in between school hols and May bank holiday so could put people off (?) or make it more difficult.Torgwen.......... ...........0

OK then, it looks so far that York is the best acceptable option, we could do worse than that, as it is a lovely town!
Would anyone in the area try and make some contact and a provisional booking (with budget) for however many of us who have responded yet?

ooh, hope everyone else ok with that, wouldn't want to spoil it for rest of you, but wouldn't want to miss out either. ;D0 -
The Micklegate hostel looks nice, the other one looks like a prison! :D
Tee Hee Hee!
'the other one' is actually Clifford's Tower...one of York's ancient monuments...love the idea of it as a youth hostel...might be a bit draughty tho!
(sorry Fran! it wasn't exactly clear)Nice to save.0
