Good stuff Nick
Where next chaps - and when?
Somewhere ridiculously and outrageously Northern, I reckon.
Mills 'n' pits 'n' stuff.
Flat caps and whippets would be a bonus.

Lancashire? That's a bit far South for me. Seems to be more of a meet for the Midlands

I fancy coming up for this. Astley Green is about three-and-a-half hours drive from home, trains are out because the earliest (reasonable) service gets me to Piccadilly at 1pm and that's half the day gone (there are some earlier services but they involve catching a bus, another train, going into Paddington and then heading north and frankly, I can't be arsed with all that if I have to get up at 4.30am to get started).

Yeah, I probably shouldn't have gone on a rant about the trains and left it as "I fancy coming up for this". Apologies for the confusion.
