A bit of advance notice seems to be required since it's not the most active forum is it!? I realise i'm at risk of butting in as a newcomer but if we don't set a date then this could take a long time. So what about Thursday 12th March. Meet at the Swan at 19.00 in Stafford and then maybe just stick to somewhere like Pizza Express for the first time (i.e. somewhere we won't have to book to get in). Does that appeal to anyone?
