It\'s that time of year again when we start thinking about our MoneyAM Xmas Meal. This is a chance for old friends and those who have never met up with other MoneyAM/Shares users to celebrate the festive season.

In a change to previous years we have decide to head North and join the North Westerners in what has become a regular fixture in their calender, organised by Ruth, with drinks and a meal in Manchester. All are welcome to come along, but please can you let me know by the 23rd November either by email ian@moneyam.com or post on this thread you are coming.

So here are the details:

Friday 7th December 2007

19.00 (7.00pm): The Old Monkey Pub, 90-92 Portland Street, Manchester, M1 4GX

"We do have nice countryside, towns and villages, pubs with real ale, etc."

Yes that's all right but nearly all of the conversation (assuming that you can get any out of them ) mainly revolves around House prices, do-it-yourself and work.

Bullshare - 06 Nov 2007 14:56 - 72 of 156

Anyway there are a few of us soft southerners coming up North for the Xmas meal , so be nice to us ;-)

Big Al - 06 Nov 2007 15:06 - 73 of 156

Hils - you got that right. ;-)) A bit like all those ruskie fans Chelsea have these days. Perhaps they're forced to go as the alternative may be a trip to the Gulag. ;-))))))))))

Nice as cream pie without the pies, Mikey ;)

If you look at the whole UK including the Shetlands, Newcastle may be the middle (centre point north/south) of the country.. So Newcastle is in the midlands, Manchester is in the south and Wallsend (Hadrian's wall on the north sea) is just in the north of the UK. H

oilyrag - 07 Nov 2007 07:32 - 76 of 156

If you want to stretch a point, wouldn't the Falklands be the most southerly part of the UK.

sutherlh1 - 07 Nov 2007 08:38 - 77 of 156

I think the Falklands, like the Channel Isles are not part of the UK, although they are British. I think the most southerly part of the UK administation area are the Scilly Isles. H

Talking about the Channel Isles S, I was interested to be informed that the policing is the responsibility of the Hampshire constabulary...without going off topic of course -):

Gausie - 07 Nov 2007 11:22 - 79 of 156

I will be spending that weekend in some far flung place as it clashes with a family wedding and I'm committed to spending pretty much the entire weekend with 'em.

The wedding party is on the Saturday night at some dive called 'The Midland Hotel' and the northern flat-capped whippet-racing chips-and-gravy-eating mob that my cousin is marrying into can't even pronounce the word 'cousin', let alone 'bath' or 'grass'.

... may sneak out for an hour or two and join u guys for a drink.
