I'm in agreement with you on that. It's not exactly the most interesting thing to do on a nice evening. However short of moving out to another location (perhaps a bit late notice this month) I'm not sure what to suggest. There are plenty of locations we could meet at which need help but they all require extra effort to get to. I'd suggest Lichfield (plenty to map there) as it has easy train access, but perhaps thats better for a later date?
I'll certainly be there, wherever we decide. I know Brian is away.
