Watch the Events section in the Forum (there's a button for Events at the top of the page. You'll find a few Portsmouth Mini Meets in there from previous months.

Will be putting up a thread once we've got past the expense and drain on our time that Christmas is. It can get in the way somewhat. Probably the first or second weekend in Jan unless the locals want to make it an evening do as last time again.

Sorry Gordon. Just posted and seen your reply :P
