Good point.
Five votes for the 29th but any of those willing to organise the
event.
I said i will hide the caches if the 29th was chosen and the
event was held in the Adlestrop area.

So if the 29th wasn't chosen you wouldn't hide the caches? :-\

Griff this was my point that we are doing things the wrong way
round. What would happen if a date is chosen that the Event
organiser and/or Cache placer can't make, where is the incentive
for them to do these? The great thing about the Twixmas Event is
the social side of it, especially for a Cache placer, as you
don't get many opportunities to watch cachers scrabble after
your caches :)

I think it's getting too complicated, perhaps we shouldn't have
an event at all :(
We are doing the things the wrong way round now, but on the
Twixmas thread we have been having discussion with regards to
who wants to organize and who will place the caches.
Wrighty said he would consider placing caches in the Aldestrop
and wouldn't be able to help with the event-side of things due
to this responsibility, then I said I would be willing to help
with the event, and I think you [walktall] did too? :)
Then, we started to discuss dates: I suggested the 28th,
confusing it for the 29th (thinking it was the Sunday) and I
then made it clear I couldn't make the 29th, and so the event
would be one helper down. Wrighty then said it would have to be
the 29th, not the 28th.
Then, I suggested we make it pre or after Twixmas - at the end
of the day it would still be an event, and that's what counts :D
I then thought the fairest way to decide would be to put a poll
up, to prevent any squabbles and disagreements. I posted asking
if it would be a good idea, and then another post later, in case
anyone missed it, and there wasn't a reply for a couple of days,
of which changed the topic back to the hall :) Therefore, I
thought no news is good news, and it put up the poll - I put the
29th on because I didn't want to upset Wrighty by not including
his preferred date. :)
So, we were doing things the right way round, but correctly so
now we are not.
So, I think you [walktall] said you couldn't make the 29th and
nor can I. If Wrighty can't do any other of the four dates
above, then I think it's best we leave the event which would be
a shame - unless someone else can organize it and volunteer to
do so for the 29th.

Yes, plus it wouldn't feel right without you both there! ;D
Can you not do any other date (forget the ones in the poll :D )
within a month either side of the 29th? :) - it wouldn't be
Twixmas, but it's still an event around the festive period, and
it's the enjoyable day caching, socializing and eating (and
drinking!) that counts :D

WE NEED A MEETING
We are going to be here forever trying to randomly hit a date
that suits all, if we sit down with a calendar in front of us we
will all be able to see exactly where we are.
Come to think of it, we probably won't be able to agree on a
date for the meeting either. :-\
In an attempt to get the ball rolling I will nominate Snowshill
Arms on 18th November.

I'm thirsty, we could do with a drink and actually talk to each
other.
Shall we have a vote for the 18th Nov get together at the
Snowshill Arms?
ONLY KIDDING :)
It's in my diary, hoping that it will be more than TJ and I
there :)
