Tentatively thinking about Saturday 25 Feb 2012 for BIG3. I think the ibis hotel in Birmingham's Chinatown could be a good base of operations. I HAVE ALREADY BOOKED THE KARAOKE!! Consult your diaries.

I shall try and take advantage of the advance warning to balance my budget accordingly so that I can make it down this time.

I can't actually book any holiday for next year until the beginning of February (our leave year is Feb to January) but I shall have a word with my colleagues and see if I can get an understanding in place.

I've put a request in for the day off work before BIG #3, to aid travel.

The timings of the comic marts was a bit off, since 7 Jan is too close to the New Year (going by a few people's feedback from BIG1) and 17 March would have made BIG3 too close to the Roll Out convention, so I figured it best to pick the end of February in the end.
I hope to see everyone there!
And, remember, it will be INFORMAL, so we're just gonna show up at places without booking and smile.

I have informally spoken to my colleagues and it looks like I might be able to get the time off as well. so hopefully I should be able to make it down this time.
