Is it ok I advertise this in Other Places? I feel yacf is followed by a decreasing proportion of AUK membership and so won't be seen by the newer/younger/post COVID recruits

Well it certainly won't be seen on the AUK website - posts have slowed to a trickle over there (I know you weren't actually suggesting that)

Richard S & I are booked.  We're just waiting for a suitably named storm to be forecast (we got Eunice there and Franklin back last time).

The FB group seems likeliest, though more people might read the AUK forum than post there.

We'll have to plan an interesting route.

[Regulator]

Ooh - I misread the date.  I may arrange to take a trip to see the Coven and gatecrash your drinks (although there are much better pubs in Salisbury than Neverspoons).

I suspect there may be a move elsewhere during the evening, for food.  You'll have to keep tabs on us.

[PeterM]

George and I will be there, maybe even on the right day

[teethgrinder]

SCAM WARNING

Just in case anyone else gets an email from Booking . com asking for verification of their booking with a threat of cancellation.  In my case for the Kings head.  It is very convincing and nearly had me fooled.  I found this article about it - https://www.theguardian.com/money/2023/oct/23/bookingcom-customers-targeted-by-scam-confirmation-emails

Dinner - Saturday night

If anyone would like to do what we did either last year or the year before (can't remember which, too much time spent in the company of IanH) and have a team curry I am happy to book the resturant that we used then (see link below).  The are happy with large groups.  I reckon we will be able to book for up to 15 people.  If folks which I will make a provisional booking for 15 tomorrow and we can go from there.
