I'm definitly up for this, depending on the dates.
Somewhere on the train between Glasgow and Edinburgh, would probably
work out well, At a quick glance Livingston and Falkirk might to good
places to start. People with cars could head out a little futher afield
if neccessary.
I'm also more than happy to do a talk in the run up to any event.
Anyone in Edinburgh/Glasgow up for some beers in the next few weeks?
Cheers
Chris
