I'd say it's a good time to start, as there are some general points e.g.:
1) Is it to be in Devon then? (Not Cornwall, as I recall, 'cos it would be packed with tourists).
2) Do we inform other European clubs, to bring in an international flavour, or would that be too ambitious and potentially big?

Sounds a good option, re location + your eminent selves as organisers. Other hands would be available to help along the way.
Should this thread be relocated to give it a fresh start and not spin off RTT07?

Agreed - I got into a fine mess earlier this year, even on a local G2G.

Prolly right.
Let's just see what people say.
My only reservation with having it in the west of Ireland is it might be a bit out of the way for any mainland euro-type-personages. My only reservation with Devon/Cornwall is that it's a horrible motorway journey from my house to Devon.

o
If it's Eastern Europe, how about Romania? Great scenery, cheapish (apart from getting there).
