Olivia, you forgot (might not know) one other thing that Sheffield is famous for... If we meet in Sheffield with the Admins do the Full Monty???

(Possibly at Sheffield Wednesday on a Wednesday, in a flat cap (you can keep your hat on), holding a whippet and a ferret, eating a Yorkshire Pudding (with Sheffield Steel cutlery), listening to the Human League/ABC/Pulp/the Long Blondes/Arctic Monkeys/Joe Cocker/Moloko/Def Leppard/Reverend and the Makers/the Longpigs/the Clash (not from Sheffield, but played their first ever gig there), having a chat with Michael Palin/Gordon Banks/Sean Bean/Helen Sharman/Seb Coe about how great it is that Sheffield is two-thirds green space and has more trees per head of population than any other city in Europe.)

Boooooooo London.

I did see the film The Full Monty, but did not know all of that about Sheffield! Well! After all that how can there be any debate about where to go or what events should be on the planner. Sheffield it is!

VOTE SHEFFIELD

VOTE SHEFFIELD

Followed by a "where" one maybe? Not that I'm psychic! :p

It looks like it's too close between London and Sheffield, but more people hate London than Sheffield so it'll turn into a no further action situation. I'd almost forgotten what the poll was for in the first place :$
