I will discuss possible dates over the coming days, watch this space.
I am aware Duxford is 9th and 10th of September, same weekend as the St. Leger Festival here in Doncaster.
IF YOU CAN MAKE BOTH, VOTE TWICE PLEASE !!!

OK so the website I looked at was wrong and Duxford is 16th/17th September, as luck would have it, this is also the Battle of Britain Memorial Weekend at the Air Museum, and the St.Leger weekend, so all the potential clashes that can affect the date of our get together seem to align on the same weekend, which in theory leaves the rest of them free.... However there are caravan club events on a couple of weekends so that leaves us the very start of September or the very end (same weekend as we have just had).. very early days I know but where does the preference sit with everyone?
1st - 3rd September
29th September - 1st October

1,2,3 for me. End of September is birthday commitments
1st-3rd would be better for me and Marian as i have to be at work on a stocktake audit the last weekend
I can do either, but I guess 1st-3rd to match the other votes so far!![]()
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Too early to tell, so at this stage 8m happy with whatever works best top of everyone
Either is OK for me.

Mrs K and I prefer the later date if possible.

I can do either but I voted for later one b4 I saw I could/should vote for both.
Either ok for myself. Prefer the early one though.
See you on the Dark Side......
Voted for end as its closer to payday
Later is better for us, the early date being the next weekend on from August bank holiday means life can be unnecessarily hectic, but we'll manage whatever the collective decision is
Lest we forget
OK I need to make a call on this. Will double check availability then update.

would prefer the earlier dates, the later ones are possible though (I just would have to skip Nastja's birthday again)

Looks like it will be the earlier date, will confirm booking tomorrow

I am in for both possible weekends (thank you, my dear wife), but Kubajs has some troubles with earlier date.
OK FOLKS... following feedback on here and on a couple of WhatsApp groups and after speaking to the venue, I can confirm that DONCASTER 2023 will be the earlier weekend, that is the 1st, 2nd and 3rd of September 2023. I sincerely apologise if that rules anybody out but unfortunately I can’t find a date that everyone can attend (and guess we never will). So get your hotel rooms booked, think about what games you would like to run/play and we can move forward from here. Here’s hoping for a great turnout in 2023...

Premier Inn website playing silly beggars at the moment, saying it can't complete the booking, so don't know if it is too early to book there yet.

I'll offer up a Spanish Civil War game for next year. It was almost ready for this year, apart from a few small details such as: no planes, no cards, no manoeuvre decks, no scenario. Other than that, it was good to go.![]()

I can run my air racing game again if there's interest, although as I ran it last time I'd only do so if there weren't three other games offered
Got that Dave, thank you, certainly the loudest game of the weekend this year.

Shiny fast planes, dastardly maneuvers and the tail end Charlie winning the race , it was the Grand National of the weekend.![]()

Book me in for the race game too please and I'll see if I can manage to land properly at the end of it, for a change![]()
Happy to put on a game of WW1 if needed. Haven't a clue what though at this point. Perhaps a bombing run on my home town of Dover, as inspired by Peter (Teaticket) some time back.
