Scourer: is the booking under your name or “CUK”? It would be handy if people know what to ask the bar staff when they arrive, so they can be pointed in the right direction and don’t end up wandering around confusing Mancunians by asking if they know anything about bleeding radiatorsComment

No point trying to remember names. It's the looks of disappointment / shock that's more memorable.

Just thinking. Anyone heard from Stek. He's over this end and came to one of the Leeds meets. Funny as hell. He works abroad a lot though doesn't he?'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

So far it is booked under my real name. But I am going to ping them a week before just to double check booking is still on. At that point I will add CUK to be booking.
Sadly one person who had confirmed they were going by responding to the poll has dropped out. But one other has said they will come and not responded to the poll. I expect much more of this with 17 days to go.
Also I have given my mobile to one person and will give that out to a few more nearer the time. I am likely to be off CUK for all of the 13th.
I suppose I am likely to be offline for most of the 14th. Not sure if that will be due to getting rid of the germs from being thrown in the canal. Or being part of a police lineup.....Comment

I don't have his contact details just remember his last posts and how they chimed with my investigations on working abroad (never worth it unless you can fully up sticks and move there).merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

I'm due to get there for 6pm, I have Brillo's mobile, will text if the Manchester traffic holds me up.
Apparently, I have one of those faces that everyone thinks they know, so you should recognise me
