it would be interesting to get a RR day organised, but its very difficult to get a place where everyone would be happy to get to.

if your talking a central position then somewhere between northampton and nottingham would be fairly good, but that is still a good 3-4 hour drive for me and its not exactly a short drive for the scottish members lol
