Heres a thought, why not meet once a month rather than every fortnight I'm 
sure everyone can fit a Saturday in once a month? And why not in the 
afternoon? most of us have jobs so staying out mid week is not on when you 
have a job to keep.

Is there a community centre in Wolverhampton? I bet it could be hired/used for 
a few hours cheaply? seeing as most people chuck a tenner in the pot at the 
Standard we could all put a couple of quid in which might cover hire and 
electricity that way people could bring equipment along.

Monday
Tuesday
Saturday
Sunday

Are all good for me but we've been down this path before! theres a one off "OK 
lets meet on a Monday", four people turn up and thats it it gets killed off 
the Wednesdayites rub their hands with glee and the same old faces turn up to 
the fortnightly meet.

Its the older members who can make the changes as they tend to set the pace 
seeing as they know each other really well.

Wolverhampton is a bit of a pain for me too but then again it is the 
Wolves-LUG so you cant expect meetings in Brownhills.
