The Gravitational centre of the British mainland is at Dunsop Bridge ,(actually a few miles away), in Lancashire. I was there the other day and there was a sign in braille saying so, though I would imagine that it would be a strange concept for the blind to grasp.

Page 5, is there any kind of concensus as to where people would like to meet?

Scotlands lovely, everyone always talks about wanting to go there, now you can :thumbup:

I'm skint too so couldn't go too far, somewhere easy to access with cheapo travelodges would be fine

Other than that would love to meet up

Do you mind mate, now I think when we first met on RDF I told you in no uncertain terms that I’m the only miserable old git on this forum and any other for matter, wait your turn if you don’t mind. :popcorn:

Anyway, I vote for Bristol or B'ham. Good transport links.

If this ends up being in Birmingham I might well be interested.

The road to Leicester is one that is well-travelled by me. I commuted to Leicester each day for my undergraduate.

I've met members as far south as the Eden Project and as far north as Edinburgh, so count me in wherever. :pop: :scratch: Ah! :popcorn: (bloody pedant!)
