Stoke is gonna be your closest city for a night out. Birmingham is probably too far. Stoke is okay, not the best, not the worst... I'm speaking as a Stokie. But the night will be what you make it

Just an update/reminder for everyone

As we have been through the discussion the official date of this event as follows

Thursday (optional) Bowling and meal out for those that have travelled far and will be staying up the night before

Alton Towers Friday 7th October main event of the weekend we will be there for the day. another optional feature for those staying over night or local another meal out and possibly go out for the night for a casual drink.

Saturday (optional) Cadburys world (chocolate factory) i can arrange a chilled-very easy day with a group tour with plenty of freebies and should be able to get away for 3-4pm in the afternoon.

Cant do this now Cant get the time off work

guys....

I really wanted to go but have only got 1 days leave left and I'm saving it for an emergency

any chance of making it the weekend ?

Give it a couple of weeks, Stason a few of us work shifts and don't know what we're working that far in advance.

I can't do that weekend as it's my gfs sisters engagement party and I can't miss that. I really want to go but it would have to be the week after or before

4 hours is a little far to travel, plus I'm working the firday night til 10 & working saturday from 4pm onwards.
