Ryan, definitely make time for your children. A friend of mine was working every hour he could to provide a secure home for his family (and this included weekends). One day he was able to finish at the normal time (because the computer program needed over 12 hours to evaluate test results), so when he got home his 4 year old daughter was still up. She looked at him and burst into tears. "What have we done to upset you, Daddy?
We never see you any more!" she said. That broke him. What is the point of providing a secure home for your family is you are never WITH your family?

Re: Meeting arrangements
I had to pop up to see Jim today and as a result we realised that we both have commitments next week which will make it difficult to meet for lunch so we proposed moving the date to the following week commencing 22nd. So how is that week looking chaps?

Re: Meeting arrangements

Re: Meeting arrangements
That makes 3 of us plus Jim who I'm sure will be ok for that making four, just need to hear from James, Ryan, and anyone else in the area. I would suggest the venue may be the King Charles which used to be the Lazy Pig in the Pantry last time we met there!! It is in the mid sector between Reading, MK and Hertford.

Re: Meeting arrangements
Luckily for you guys I can't make it. Wish I could be there to represent the ginger members but on this occasion I can't.

Re: Meeting arrangements
I can also join you for 23rd. My car has just passed her MoT test, so she is good to go. I will try and remember to bring the scooter with me, if anybody is interested in having a go?
