Or a ten quid taxi (probaby, because of traffic. Fiver if you're lucky ^.^)

Can a mod check the 'ayes' on this and edit my first post on the thread? I'm no longer able to edit it.

I'd be quite up for going to one of the GTG's but October isn't good for me. My other half is due to have her baby on the 5th and it's just too soon to leave her on her own.
On top of that It's pretty soon after I've taken a holiday (Paternity, though holiday booked due to not being here long enough to get paid leave) to take another.

November would definitely be better for me and, if it's Birmingham (again), I could make a visits to some other people I know in the area.
