Had an email through today on the Norfolkes list, saying Late May Bank Holiday major muster would be in Liverpool. First reaction: buggered if I'm going all that way. On reflection, I realised I wasn't entirely sure just how far "all that way" was. On checking a copy of Philips' Modern School Atlas left over from school days (issued to me 11/09/81!), I now see Liverpool is only slightly further than Manchester and not as far as Blackpool.

Nonetheless, I'm starting to ponder Dropzone as an alternative or, given that there are rumours the parents may be coming over in May, just spending time with them, Heavens forbid!
