Alright, I'm rapidly running out of scheduling room, people, so let's get this thing nailed down/hosted if we do anything at all xD
I am now only available Monday or Tuesday night due to heading home for Thanksgiving.
I am hereby offering to host a BBQ on either of those evenings after 5 PM; thinking simple food and some drinks. I live in a shared house with students, so fair warning it'll look 'student-y', but if everyone's OK with that, then reply with your preferred night and I'll PM you address details. Also PM with any dietary restrictions or allergies; I was thinking some BBQ chicken drumsticks or pork loin, with asking other people to provide side dishes ('slaw? salad?). I've got some homemade dandelion wine, but it was a partial ferment- so sweet as hell. Still alcoholic, but more like a cordial than true booze.
Otherwise, if someone else would prefer to host, feel free to reply in the thread with your proposed time and date. Looking forward to meeting anyone available/interested!
