    Hmmm ..... interested in the get together in London, but it's the fasting month ...... can't eat/drink until 9pm-ish. Which means, no energy for playing badminton ..... :crying:

    Heck, at my, err, expanded age and weight, there's no energy even during normal months anyway, wakakakakaka.:p

    I'm aiming to get the NW session at Selwyn Jones - shuts at 10, giving post-work attendees a good couple of hours. There's plenty of clubs in St Helens that stay open late as well, but SJ is closest to Manchester. Anybody who wants to come earlier, even better.

    Anybody coming up who can swing by St Helens? My car situation doesn't look good. Extra petrol will be covered:D.

    We've now got at least four for the "Manchester" session now, and we should all be heading there a bit early. The 7.30 start is only notional, so people can come after work; I'll lock a "true" start time down once I hear from everybody.

    I'll need confirmation from any attendees (PM is best) at least a fortnight before the 31st so I can hire courts appropriately for the numbers and divvy up the cost; it's £7 per court hour, but it now has to be paid over the phone while booking for some reason.
