other than that, works for me. If I can get a lift.

This has been on my mind this week actually.

I've organised the last 3-4 and haven't had time at all to even think about it.

Glad someone is taking the initiative.

If Danny can make it, us, who are north of Bombays surely can too!

I'll keep that day free.

One option is to consider holding it at a bar, a bit like the Ork Fest. Start at 11am, be done by 5pm. Food and booze and non-booze catered for. I thought it worked well at The Bollix.

Another option is to hire an island in the Bahama's with lots of live bands and hot girls and charge maybe $25K a ticket?
