Much as I like Edinburgh, it's unlikely to be a feasible option, what with work, children, serious difficulties leaving the pub in time for the last bus etc.

Maybe there should be two polls. One for the date and one for the location. Alternatively, have it all on the one poll. Edin 20th, Glas 20th etc. That will give us an indication of numbers.

Agent it wouldn't matter the location I'd have similar problems, as well as a 10 mile journey from Perth train station, that's why the suggestion of an afternoon to evening session.

RH yep a poll would be the best way forward, re dates 20th is a week day.

As most of us come from all over Scotland probably a early evening - late session is best for the ones who need to catch trains back to their homes,

I´m going to my parents at Xmas and they live in Angus,

I´m up for both options

Ha. I'd turn up to Glasgow or Edinburgh, but I imagine a fight would break out.

Bit far for me. Will be going to Oban for Christmas. Going to Sctland before that for a few drinks before Christmas is pushing it just a little bit. I don't know of any late night trains from Glasgow/Edinburgh to Rhyl or Wrexham, at least none that'll arrive this side of 2010 anyway.

Aventinian,
Och do you really think anyone would pick a fight with you. Course we wouldn't.
What goes on in the forum stays in there anyway.
I don't know if I can manage unless hubby is home, but anyway, the rest of you have a great time if I can't make it and have one for me.
