News update: Dave from Construction Skills College who had been very helpful, - thank you again Dave - told me that his two conference rooms would only seat 5 people including the individual tables we would need in the room, so this would not be suitable. So, I went out and found a much more suitable and very exciting place, with free parking, a lovely cafe, and even a pottery museum to have a look around in at lunchtime if you wish, very easy to get to by car, and by taxi just three miles from Stoke-on -Trent Railway station. Absolutely perfect. This is the venue - can't wait to meet you there, hope you are as excited as I am! :hurray: Stoke Museums - Welcome To Gladstone Pottery Museum
