Picking up on Fizz's points about the AR and the Olympics next year, there have been a great few members on here already mentioning the fact that during the events, we won't be able to commit to going to anything. I am not allowed any AL between May til September. I can't even book time off for family weddings.

Perhaps a different weekend next year might work better. But then, as I'm not offering my time to organise it, then I can't really moan about dates.

As long as it's sunny, I don't really care where it is. I wouldn't mind doing Yorkshire again, but in the dry!

Wales was smashing. Will never forget 1000 sheep road. Scotland was awesome too but we have the GM for that. Maybe waaaaay up norf, but then people will moan about distances.

I vote Alps personally.

Probably wants to move the same as previous years, so the call for proposals needs to open soon.

Doesn't matter where people want it, people need to want to do it, offer to do it, THEN we can have a poll about it.

Well I wasn't going to say it first, I might get told off

Not many people enthusiastically offering their time and effort either

What about using one of the other choices/proposals that weren't chosen for ar like Eds artnw or another? Just a thought because all the research has already been done. Or just do Dizzy's again in the dry

Do the previous two posts not answer your question?

Some one needs to put their hand up to offer to organise it.

Just to backup what Mike and the others are saying with this, the above is the correct and only approach.

If nobdy steps forward, then we dont have an AR12 IMHO.

On the other side of it, the person that does step forward, should do freely and willingly and not feel under pressure that "There wont be an AR12 if I dont do it, so I will do it even if though I dont really want to"
