My weekends have gone to crap this month (family get together, Scouts, Karate camps ...)

I'll check my spare days tonight after work and post up the candidates in here so you can all choose

OK Sorry for my tardiness, but life has just got totally out of hand and my November has been a write off, it's a write off in a nice way as I've been swamped by stuff for the kids, with Music, Karate, Scouts, Surfing and wider family get togethers.

but none of that has been helping with the gearfest, I knew we shouldn't have planned this thing so far out.

Anyway, November is stuffed for me, obviously, and December isn't looking much better.

Currently my free time is:

Sat 5th December (least favourite option)
Sat 12th December
Sun 13th December

and then I'm stuffed until mid Jan next year

I've no idea if any of those dates are good for people or if we just want to postpone till some future date, or if you want to find somewhere easier in town...

sorry again, but my world has just been so chaotic everytime I thought I had everything in order it got complicated again, the joys of teenage kids.

Could probably do a Wednesday in the office to catch lunch if schedules worked (Monday is my usual office day)
