just curious here, how many ppl would be interested in a UK sort of one-off lug (...) socialising thing, probably somewhere central like manchester or something...

Well, except that Manchester _isn't_ central by any means, I think the idea is a solid one.

Manchester is central if you are looking at the UK.

It takes 3 hours to get to Manchester from London, and 5 hours from Edinburgh. The area is called the 'North West' in relation to England, not the United Kingdom.

The fact I live in Manchester does not affect my impartiality, well not that much.
