Default Bristol / Glouceter Meet: 20th September

No venue decided as yet, but the date was agreed as 20th September.

(EDIT: Venue now The Tudor Arms near Slimbridge)

What do people think about a venue? Should still be relatively warm so something outdoorsy could be nice - we could go up to Sharpness Canal, or somewhere along the Avon somewhere? There's a couple of nice pubs along the waterside in Keynsham - could always try one of those?

It's likely that after this one I'm going to hang up my organising boots and let somebody else take over - I quite like the idea of a change every year to keep the meets fresh and interesting, so perhaps we should all have a think about who should take the reins...

Anyway..

Keynsham/Saltford pubs can be very busy in the evenings, I fancy the canal, that would be pleasant.

Do we need a 'regular' organiser - or perhaps a different one for every month with the organisers planned a few meets ahead ?

Alex,

I guess you've been lumbered with more than yourfair share recently, but I think the approach of different organisers has worked well and ensures the effort is balanced and the meets are varied.

Certainly I am happy to arrange the odd meet or two, as I did earlier in the year.

As for September.... it's in the diary!

Both fair points! Perhaps we should nominate somebody / someone should volunteer to organise each month then as a matter of course? Then it's just a case of getting everybody to commit to the same date and put up the initial post on the forum, which I'm happy to continue doing..

I agree!

A Sunday morning trip over to the mountains has to be on the cards.

i.e. more of this....



But hopefully, none of this...

I'm happy to organise something for a Sunday - being from that part of the world I know the roads quite well
