I have updated the list re the meet up and we have 26 confirmed and waiting for 2 responses but as we have just 22 on the votes I'm guessing that 4 who are coming on the ghost tour aren't coming to the meet up, I know that 5 are coming to the meet up but not the ghost tour. Have I missed anybody of the list who wants to come so that we can get organising a suitably sized room? (well prettyxcool is organising - thanks so much). 8 weeks to go then it's party time :cheer: :cheer:

The extra Glasgow Fmukers are coming to the meet up as well as Ghost Tour . . . .they've probably not voted! That will possibly account for 4 people.
Preferred cinemas: Best: Glasgow Quay, Glasgow Braehead, Glasgow Renfield Street, Glasgow Fort & Paisley
Others I'd go to: Glasgow Showcase Baillieston

Films already booked for:

Hope to get tickets for: Every film if they come to my preferred cinemas

Ooh now one of life's mysteries have been solved ;) Thanks for letting me know as I don't think there is anyway of knowing who has voted (not for simpletons like me anyway).

The venue for our meet up is The Advocate. They have been given the Certificate of Excellence 2014 by Tripadvisor, so hopefully they are good!

The Advocate
7 Hunter Square
Edinburgh EH1 1QW
http://www.theadvocate-edinburgh.co.uk

They do two starters for £6, two desserts for £6 and beer for £1 on some dishes. Some deals are available every day, some not.
If we all sign up we can get £5 off on a £15 food spend. Or we can refer friends, as for each friend who signs up you will get one point, you need two more points to unlock the 20% voucher on £10 food spend, need 5 points to get a voucher for 30% of £15 food spend. However, if one person can get 10 points (i.e. 10 people to sign up) can get 40% of £20 spend on food.

As it is in the Advocate then we are literally just round the corner of where we need to meet for the ghost tour.

Sounds like the perfect choice. Is the 40% off all food when you spend over £20 or just on the first £20? If it's the first then we'll (if we want to -sorry bossy mode kicking in) have to get person 1 to recommend person 2 then person 2 to recommend person 3 etc to make sure that we all get the best deal. Does it work with the other deals ie 2 starters for £6
Getting excited and my planning head is kicking in. I do enjoy having a plan.
