Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Arcadian's on the road and has been snouting out venues. He's bagged the Sports City Travelodge for the last weekend in January:
https://www.travelodge.co.uk/hotels/285 ... hotel?sb=0
There is enough space for about 25 x 4' tables across two adjacent rooms (small , and the venue are apparently very accommodating with regard to getting food in etc, etc.
More space behind that partition.
We'll be putting up a booking thread in due course!

Just to bump this up the list as it's just been birthed into the main forum!
Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Looks like a useful space and accomodation on-site (for those that need it).
It's almost on my doorstep, so I'll be there.

Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Hi,
I live in Runcorn, just about 40 minutes from the venue.
I would like to attend, to meet everyone, but would not be staying overnight.

It's probably not much different travelwise as the ABUG South, haven't been to Manchester for a while, not since I worked there, so I'll hopefully be able to make this one.

Sounds good, all being well I will be there.
Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Travel for this looks surprisingly easy - train into Manchester and a bus from right outside the station! Well done for finding such an accessible venue!
Hopefully I'll see you all there! Can't wait for the booking thread to appear

Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Given this is a ~30 minute walk from my house, it'd be rude not to.
Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
I’m about 10 miles away so great location and will be looking to attend !
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Save the Date: ABug North, 26th-28th January 2024. Manchester
Would it be too much to ask if you could confirm with the venue that they will be OK with us soldering in the rooms etc, as I'd rather have this checked in advance than get a bolocking when we set the fire alarm off or something like that.......danielj wrote: ↑Sat Oct 28, 2023 8:12 pm Arcadian's on the road and has been snouting out venues.

I'm pretty sure Arcadian checked that in the first instance

Yes it's all cleared, we will position anyone using solidering irons 'strategically' i.e. close to the windows and away from smoke detectors!

I’ve seen a fix for the smoke detectors…
