Next Northern Planning catch up is Thursday 5th July in Manchester. Simon's going to arrange the venue and will update us in due course - he's currently sulking after Rob criticised his efforts last time we did Manchester. I'm sure he'll do better, and since he shaved his head, he looks well hard so - SIMON I WAS PERFECTLY HAPPY. IT'S ROB COMPLAINING NOT ME.
The usual crowd will be there, (if Simon doesn't cock it up) along with Simon's Love cronies, plus Lorna's coming along, and promises to drag some other planning types with her.
If you're around that evening, it will be nice to see you.
I wasnt complaining as such!
I liked the place we went, its just that with the trains being so rubbish the nearer the place is to the station the more time I have there!

Hurrah!
I get the feeling this is going to be even more packed than our last Manchester meeting!

From a very early age my father always taught me there are two kinds of people in life: people who shave their heads, and people who don't. Whilst I fear Rob might have a height and reach advantage on me, he'll always be one of those "doesn't shave his head" chaps.

Have you SEEN how little hair I have. Just because I dont yet have the head shaver doesnt mean I won't be using one!
Ahem.
Good work!

Bit quiet around here NP. You still alive?

Barely. Workload doesn't help but thanks to rain and floods is takes me ages to drive ANYWHERE.
Not a happy man, even less happy to find you'll be in London and I can't get there.
Sorry

I would just like to point out to my current employer that I will not be in London on Monday. This is a vicious rumour. Nothing more, nothing less.

Marcus don't worry, no one reads this blog anyway
