Liverpool sounds good to me but only if you agree to have one in Dundee and Monifieth and Auchtenshoogle

I don"t think Brighton should be used for APAT events - it would be hard for some of us to get there.

LOL - Brilliant.


Actually Mark it"s going to be held at the G Casino, not Rendezvous. Shame as G casino parking is a nightmare and Rendezvous have their own car park

G has its own car-park too Debbie.

It"s tiny compared to the Rendezvous one isn"t it?

Oh and Middlesbrough!!

We live in officially the worst place to live in Britain (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-487603/Revealed-The-worst-towns-live-Britain.html) AND its the most depressing place in England (http://www.dailystar.co.uk/posts/view/117531/Middlesbrough-named-most-depressing-place-in-England)...

Actually. No. Please don"t ever come to Middlesbrough. We love the place. We"re proud to live here.

BUT its great to have an excuse to leave the place every once in a while to go to an APAT  :)

If we are considering a 3 day event to supplement the current structure, can I assume that where this takes place is paramount. It should be somewhere that requires a bit of effort to get to, so as to make most of us feel that we have been somewhere. If so, then the following criteria should be considered.

1. Easy access from the West Midlands
2. East access from the West Midlands
3. Venue to be as close to the West Midlands, and as far away from the South Coast as possible.

Can I suggest that day 1A is held in Steve Redferns back garden, day 1B in Andy Duncans Shed and Day 2 in Brian Yates" spare bedroom!!! :D :D :D

A new development in New Brighton, Wirral is to include a new GCasino.  Just across the Mersey from Liverpool, this could be a possible new APAT venue.  Suprisingly I live in the Wirral so any casino/cardroom close to Liverpool would be great.

Just to caution....Brighton is one of numerous venues currently under discussion - we have not agreed to host a tournament there at this point.


Following the last APAT visit to Brighton I"m surprised if we"d be allowed back.  ::)

As for a team event you can not get better than holding it in Leeds. Trains, planes and automobiles easy to get from the North, South, East or West plus I live 5 miles away.      ;)
