Re: FMUKCON 2016
I'm not sure of where to vote for so probably don't really mind where it is . . . although maybe I need to give it some more thought and travel investigation!
ps Thanks Diane 65 for getting the ball rolling again!

Re: FMUKCON 2016
I think its ok to leave this particular poll as a one vote poll, but its important to make the dates poll to be Multiple votes to ensure as wide a number of FMUKers can attend once the destination is elected.
Can I suggest that we tour alround UK we these cons in the coming years so we keep moving to a new location that we have not being to...
...This means taking out London from the list.
We have already done London, Manchester and Edinburgh. Also, I have a feeling that a large majority of our membership are Londoners? So, that may result in London being the winner, everytime...which I dont think will be a fair balanced outcome.
So lets vote for Leeds, Birmingham and Cardiff (and York)?
Those are my thoughts for consideration!
I voted Leeds because Steve instigated an invite at the last con which I am happy to accept! But I am hoping in following years we will also do Birmingham, Cardiff and York :)
