Ok, I should definately be able to make it, I've made sure I have the weekend off work.
I'll be leaving about 7 to arrive in Manchester at 10 ;]
Two things though.
1) Does anyone know a decent place to park in Manchester? Like cheap whole day parking.
2) If anyone lives between me and the meet (this is my route), I will have 4 spaces in my car, I'd be more than happy to give people lifts. All I'd ask for is a few quid for petrol money, but that would be nothing compared to what you'd be saving on bus/train fares. If you're interested send me a pm or try and grab me on irc (Chobi/Mana).
Looking forward to meeting you all ;]
Especially YOU! *points*
