Tomorrow sees us setting off early - I'll be leaving the house at 04.40 and picking up 4 other Lions from 3 different clubs to make the trek by car northwards to the Royal Armouries in Leeds. Taking a car may not be the most environmentally friendly way to travel, but at least we are taking a full car!
In Leeds we hope to meet friends from all over the UK (and, who knows, further afield, too - I believe attendance will be around 1200) as well as hear reports and vote on resolutions affecting all Lions throughout the UK.
I have never been to a national convention before, but if it is half as good as the local East Anglia one was in March, we are all in for a great time. I just hope that the "refreshments" are not too tempting as we all need to get home again before midnight.
At least the others can sleep an th eway up and on the way back. Just spare a thought for the designated driver. At least if they are sleeping, I can choose what is on the radio.
