A meet in Llandudno, Colwyn Bay or Conway would be very nice at the right time of the year when it could be used as part of a day out for those not too far away.
Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and Conway are great areas to visit when the weather is good.

There's that big parking area at the North end of the bay in Llandudno.
We visit at least once most summers.

Can't remember exactly where or when, but I remember some event being fielded there during one of our visits to Llandudno a few years ago.

If the weather was right you could probably tempt attendee's that aren't too far away.

Personally, I wouldn't attend during the winter months, but put it in your diary to suggest a meet during spring/summer/autumn time.

Colin

I would be up for a meet in the Llandudno area - work permitting. Be great if we could do it at a dog freindly beach as i know Llandudno is only dog friendly on the east side of the beach.

Possibly West Shore, but you say North.

This would have been the Victorian Extravaganza that is held every year on the May Bank Holiday.
