Thanks Annie and David for your feedback,
We will definitely do some looking around at alternative dates, although
there some restrictions on us that make September quite a bit more do-able
than other times (particularly in terms of the facilities we could access).
Would people have preferences for earlier vs. later in September?
Or any other ideas about timing/location of the next conference?

Rebekah (emerging rather slowly but surely from maternity leave!)

Hi Grant and Rebekah,

Thanks for the Edinburgh offer; a trip to Scotland  would be great. Want to
keep up the momentum for our conferences.

David mentions a clash with another event in September. Also, we had
previously discussed the possibility of re-timing  perhaps to the spring .
September tends to be a bad time for some of us ( eg myself!) who will be in
the throes of beginning a new term. Having said that , there are always
clashes and reasons for difficulty, and September/ Oct  has worked well for
several years for us, and so if 11/12 September is the only reasonable date
for yourselves I'd say go for it.

( re the possibility of other offers, one of my colleagues at Plymouth had
mooted the idea of Plymouth  but we aren't in a position really to offer,
plus it's not so long since we had a southwest ( Exeter) base, so count us
out.)

Are you emerging from maternity leave Rebekah - hope going well?

Annie

So far there doesn't seem to be any definite arrangement for the next CP
conference....so Rebekah Pratt and I have scoped out the possibility of
hosting the next conference in Edinburgh. We would be able to jointly
(Edinburgh and Napier University) host an event on 11th and 12th September
on the Craiglockhart campus of Napier University which is pretty handy for
the town centre.

Obviously this is simply a proposal for discussion at this stage, so it
would be great to get some feedback or hear from anyone else with plans to
run a similar event.  There have been some great conferences recently and
after the good spirit at York this year, we must keep the momentum going.

Let us know what you feel about a trip to Scotland! Edinburgh has terrific
transport links and has a welcoming atmosphere for this sort of event.

Best wishes, Grant and Rebekah
