Default Look out poms here I come

I'm in the UK in July and looking to catch up for an ale or two with a few of you poms if you're up for it.

Was just on Skype talking to Jimbuna and we reckon we could combine a meet with a visit to a museum.

If you are interested, post here and let me know which location you would prefer.

Thinking of either:

York/Elvington
London/Hendon or Duxford

The date will be Sunday 13th July till Tuesday 15th July.

No messing about, now if you can't or won't come, don't post please.

Looking forward to seeing my old mate again and will be available for Sunday 13th and Monday 14th....prepared to travel if it means maximising the number of people who can attend.

Be there or be square

All right, I'll just re-coordinate some dates with my friends in Deal and I'll be there

A museum sounds nice

Yep I am available, I must be able to read into the future I booked those days off months ago
I would prefer York but I am willing to travel as long as there is train station I have no transport at the moment.

That's why I'm posting now to let people make arrangements. No decision on where yet but I'll need to sort out my accommodation soon so will give it another week before we decide.

I'm likely to have a rental car while I'm there. It will be a 7 seater, so plenty of room.

I'll be heading from Essex to wherever we go on the Sunday so if York ends up as the venue then I can pick up any strays from the south east if required. Just need a rallying point where I can pick up.

Essex is close to Deal (in British terms, it's still further than my entire country is wide )

I just make take you on that offer

Seat reserved.

Essex to York is about 4 hours drive so not much more than I'd go for a quick weekend away down here.

Must be having a brain pump...who is Martin?

Going to the UK and not using their own invention, like going to Australia and drinking cold beer.
We were drinking real/proper ale before we populated the prison island with those of questionnable integrity
