Oh Fidget, I don't envy you now. This is always what happens. You say, can you do date A or date B, or if not possible maybe we could find a date C. And....
33% of people can't do date A
33% of people can't do date B
and 33% couldn't do date C
1% of the people couldn't come on any of them anyway.
So you have to choose to go without the people who expressly said they couldn't do that date you have chosen, and worry that they will feel hurt - that you chose the one date when they said they couldn't make it. I think the trick will be that we have to schedule lots of days out and then everyone will get in on one of them one day, eventually When I was working, the girls' Christmas 'do' inevitably took place on about the 25th of January, for precisely these reasons. (PS, if you make it on a weekend, I won't take offence!!)
Cool - see you there. I will be on Cloud 9 cos I will be working from home in that time period, so it will be fabby to have an excuse to get out and enjoy myself for a day!!

Don't change any dates for me, I'll just fit in if I can, if not I'll do it another time so no worries....I'll just go and join Lily and sulk
