I currently live in London but from September I'll be in Manchester. Plus I go up there reasonably frequently to see my mysterious brother who will remain completely nameless... ;)

The gaming place Anvar is talking about I think is near Manchester Piccadilly.

is Manchester a nice city to go to and visit with my wife or is it a typical industrial city, full of uglyness?

It's actually really nice, mainly because the IRA blew up most of the city centre in the 90s...

You think Manc is nice? Wow. LOL i guess its ok. Good for shopping GE, you can tell your wife they have at least 2 major retail venues.

Picadilly is usually the station i goto from Stoke. I have a feeling i might know where this place is... Whats the store name. I have played in a Decipher tournament once there and met a decipher employee cant remember his name.

Hhhmmm...I'm actually thinking about doing this, taking a train ride down to Manchester and playing some games with you guys!  When would it be?  A Saturday or Sunday would be best for me, as my babysitter would only be available on those days.

The place I'm thinking of is very near to both Picadilly and Victoria stations in Manchester. Perhaps we should add a poll to this thread with options of Manchester, London, either or other, so we can see what the majority want. If the poll is split, we could always hold two get-togethers.

As for date, I would suggest that a Sunday is best for me, probably in late July or August, but perhaps we can work that out after we have a city chosen.

I was thinking of Fanboy3. Obviously, I'd have to ask them, but unless they have a busy prerelease on the day we want I think they'd be fine (and might even support the event...)

Started a new thread with a poll. If a mod wants to magically combine these two threads, that's fine with me.

Ok, poll added. I marked it to allow for users to change votes, in case it becomes easier to go to another place than the previously selected one. I also didn't want to let it run forever, since the idea is PROBABLY gathering you guys as soon as possible, so I let it run for 30 days, starting today. Soooo, vote away! :D

Well, Manchester is looking good so far. Any other votes?
