    ...been looking at pictures and reviews of the mitre, which I notice has a residents bar :)


    It would be great if people did decide to have drinks/chat in the Mitre bar, as I'm gonna arrive in Manchester later than most (6pm), and will head straight to the Mitre, and don't want to miss people! Not sure when ppl will head to the venue?

    Oh, and is anyone besides me & Una gonna wear anything special? Come on folks, it's a once-only event!

    With the number of us at the Mitre and at the gig I'd imagine the same thing will happen as at other meet-ups - once a few people start to spot each other it makes the 'clump of Frappers' more obvious for others to notice.....which then makes it even more obvious.....which then etc etc.

    I'd imagine there'll be no problem a lot of us meeting a lot of us!

    If you look carefully at the photos on the page you can see that they do cake.

    Nuff said.
