    Not going back to read every post, I'm ging to assume it is at the Spylaw Tav in Colinton.

    Has anyone considered where there is reliable cycle parking? Last time I parked my bike there, other cyclists put their bikes in the small opening opposite the entrance which blocked a car accessing the drive.

    Good point Dave C - I did point out at beginning that parking of bikes would be an issue. I have a cable that will go round about 4 bikes.

    I will contact the Spylaw

    Plenty of railings up at the top of Spylaw Street and Bridge Road, should be able to hold a fair number of bikes.

    They have a Jardin d'bierre which could be used in winter to lock up bikes. I like this idea as I'll be travelling back from Newcastle on the 22nd so likely be very late to the party.

    @gembo - you need to sing that badly (or sing badly?) can't we just put a sound proof box over your head or something?
    You can breathe in between songs....

    @unhurt, see germ thread, will be lovely to see you so long as you have letter from doctor saying you are germ free. Unless the Macedonian has done the trick? I am on a Family Perrin, cote du Rhone known as Les Cardinaux.

    @genbo been grotty from Thursday AM so by this Thursday PM I should be non-infectious. I undertake not to cough on you or touch anything adjacent to you with unwashed hands regardless.

    Afraid the Newcastle trip will be an overnighter so despite for the first time this happening within walking distance of my house, I shall be absent.

    A squadron of bears heading for the forest with bog roll and spades.

    @gembo + @unhurt = quite talkative? @IWRATS granted observer status? @SRD will surely be there?

    I am planning to give my Thursday music practice as rest this week and come over to Colinton as well. If people are arriving after 20:30 I shall go via home on my way from work.

    @gembo what song are you going to present this time? Mr Bill and I refer to 'Once in a Lifetime' as 'gembo's song'.
