Re: Where should we have our 10th Birthday bash?
Considering there has been complaints and dissatisfaction among a number of members, that a lot of the recent exclusive events have been in London, I think somewhere in the north would be appreciated.

Somewhere sunny would be good, otherwise London Good transport links, centrally located (based on population weighting, not geography), means i might actually go

I was wondering that? What will it consist of?

Do forum rules apply a these "bashes". Are moderators going to be wandering around giving infractions for Mild Trolling?

I think everyone should wear a T-Shirt with their forum Avatar on it.

Sounds like fun, hehehehe. I voted Madchester, I hope it wins, then I might actually make it there.

If people want to be further north, then how about Cambridge? They dont speak funny like other north places, lots of university eye-candy, lots of pubs for family entertainment

Re: Where should we have our 10th Birthday bash?
Voted Manchester, got to have something outwith London for once so more people can attend.

I think a birthday bash would be excellent but do you have rough indication as to when this might happen so that people can start to plan.

Nice idea...
