I have a few commitments in August but will come if I can.

Marelli, I'm going to be away in NZ in October and November but if the date in August is OK, I'd love to come. Thank you for the suggestion smile

If you can't manage August, Ayse, perhaps October may be an option for you? I think we spoke about that as well when we'd returned from Newcastle.

August is a bit soon for me as I have promised my pregnant DD and SIL to decorate the babies bedroom, rather than having DD do it. SIL has banned her from climbing ladders, breathing in paint fumes etc. etc. I agree with him as twins via IVF was an expensive business and obviously I really want the pregnancy to go well.
I think it may depend on the actual date agreed before I could say yah or nay
Still its a great thought smile

Count me in. I don't mind where or which date as August is mainly free for me. smile

While the Newcastle meetup was being organised, one in Edinburgh during the festival was mentioned. Edinburgh is packed to the crowsteps in August, so it may not be easy to book for a large party, but there are plenty of eateries so surely something will be possible. Any opinions on where to eat? ROSL as we have done before? Somewhere else?

Dates of festivals are -:

Edinburgh International Festival 8-31 August
Festival Fringe 1st to 25th August
Edinburgh Art Festival 31 July – 31 August
Edinburgh International Book Festival 9 - 25 August

More about each of the festivals plus links at www.edinburghspotlight.com/2014/01/info-dates-for-2013-festivals/ (I think they are still using the same webpage as last year and haven't changed the name)
