Wave Any AOers near Carlisle?

Hey guys :wave:

Just wondering - are there any of you in or around Carlisle?

I'm just over the border and wondered if there was any chance of getting a borders area meet sometime?

Of course not! You are my MEN

No, I'm just wondering if there is any mileage in mini meets further south of our region and north of the NW region. They're both big areas.

A run around the Lakes sounds great Al

MartinR has suggested a minimeet in Dumfries and I just wondered if a Carlisle minimeet might work too.
