George and Dave, I started the "How many UK catters" thread after a discussion with fellow catters about the idea of organising a gathering. We had no idea of the numbers in the UK or their locations. As you know we are a small country compared with the USA and Canada and so it is possible to find a location which would be accessable for catters from every corner of the UK to attend with little effort. I an sorry if you think this is a sinister exercise.
