After much consideration, the next gathering will be:
There are two to choose from, one is south, the other is north (both still at Manchester Airport)
Premier Inn Runger Lane South
Premier Inn Runger Lane North
I will suggest we all book at the south Premier Inn first, because it is cheaper, and if that fills up, book into the north Premier Inn. NOTE: Remember to book the correct dates (a mistake I made for Lavecon)
We will meet up in the South hotel (because as far as I can tell from the above links, it has more facilities)
If by some chance, people want to book at a different hotel, there are plenty to choose from at Manchester Airport.
So why that date?
The date was chosen to mark the 1st anniversary of the kickstarter, and because the next weekend Man Utd are at home to Arsenal, and I think we might want to avoid that night.
So why at the airport and not the city centre?
Because the airport is easy to get to however you are getting there, there are plenty of hotels to book at and it is actually cheaper than city centre.
But what if we want to go into the city centre?
The idea is we all gather in one place, as long as it has a bar, it doesn't matter where we are. If we do decide to go into the city, there is a wide choice of transport ... just don't get a taxi, trust me they will charge you extra because of the airport.

Well if it's okay with you Alien I've made the following registration page:
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/7403268375
It would at least let us keep track of numbers/attendees and send reminders.
Everyone, please sign up even if you're just interested and are not sure yet. You can cancel later, but registering in advance gives a good idea for potential numbers.
Alien, you mind editing the first post to include the link?
As for recording/editing, I can do that perhaps, but only for a set hour with a few rules during that specific chat to make editing easier. I've done this before at conferences and whilst the quality isn't top notch it can still be worthwhile.
