    I could manage to get down after w/e December 14. Might be a bit trickier after I resume my labours on January 6 depending on the night of the week. I don't work Fridays so could always skive off early on a Thursday to head south for an evening - I remember Thursday being a popular day years ago with people who are down there working in the week. I'd have no problem getting down there if we did a Friday

    I'm sure something could be arranged. HWMBO is here the week immediately before Christmas and the 20th is free but that's peak idiots in town I suspect.

    We could do a January post Christmas survivors meet up?

    Given that we are down to about 5 posters it's hardly surprising.

    I'm in London every week at the moment but only for 2 days a week and the sole evening is devoted to culture ...

    Could do December 11th if anyone cares but can't be too late as the next day is a school day..

    Anybody up for a Wednesday night out in Leicester? It's my last working day of the year, so I could be tempted to walk down the hill into town for a few pints

    Mebbe do something in Jan/Feb? Or next Christmas...
    I’m with this. A freezing platform for hours will kill the mood I’m afraid.

    All of them have O/T bans, I don't know how that will impact EMT on the day.
