As the voice of experience, I don't think a get together needs to be too 'organised' as such. It can get very problematic with everyone putting their two bobs worth in and things changing to suit this one or that one.
Just choose a place and time and announce it in 'Get togethers'. Then whoever's interested or in the are at that time will come.

Same as trying to organise catch up dinners with about 6 - 8 friends. Now if it is me organising I make a date about 2 weeks ahead and that's it who can comes if not there's always next time, used to give me grief trying to accommodate everyone.

.. as per the Newcastle Show idea already posted.
The Adelaide Show is approaching as well.
Does the Forum have any easily identifiable code of hat, dress, or what ever for other forumites to I.D. each other at such events?
