How about the saturday after the beer fest or is that too close? I might be away for a couple of weeks in November so I not sure about when I can do it then. Otherwise we can make a long range plan for say early in the new year and that way everybody can put it in their diaries?
Interesting idea, especially if we want to make a bigger deal of it with tasting/swapping going on around it (and maybe doing a brew! <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->) just in terms of giving people time to get something together. December could also be an option. Jebus, where is the year going? <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->
I (selfishly! <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> ) vote for a saturday, before november or after january, and ideally not the 13th oct, or 23 feb-1 march
