Train back to London's easy, takes maybe half hour into Kings Cross. I think I paid £30 return on the day last time? You can book in advance to be cheaper, but that generally requires catching a specifically timed train, which in conjunction with alcohol could be risky.

And while Mac tries to take the glass and causes a distraction, I can hit the silverware....

Sounds like a plan. I've also organised for my dad to drop me off on the day so could i please get directions to the house or a meeting area? i'm sure we can find our way to the city no bother just where to go once we are there.

I'm not much for the forward planning, my general travel approach is turn up and hope for the best, Toby and the rest pointed me in the right direction last year.
I don't know the plan this year, but last year we jest met at kings cross and traveled from there, i think the ticket was circa £20 on the day, completely forget if that was return or one way, was very hungover and totally smashed on the return journey.

What, are you going to be dropped in in Cambridge then? Hetan's your lass for directions, I'd suggest a very polite PM and I'm sure she'll help you out.

Or, send one to Mal mocking Canada. I'm sure that will also get interesting results.

Okay, I've got Pathos sorted, so who is arriving by Train and needs picking up from Cambridge station?

I need to sort out what I'm doing and how many can squeeze into my car and Cougar's pride and joy - and lets hope I don't make another verbal faux pas like I did last year :D

@ Ano - what are your plans for the Friday when you arrive in good 'ole Blighty? Are you staying with us on the Friday night or do you intend to book into the hostel in Cambridge?

@ Morgy - you're going to be arriving in Cambridge around mid-day Friday? Shall I pick you up from the usual place?

@ Mezla - you're staying overnight this time?

Just counting the floor spaces - Illy's already bagged the downstairs lavvy - It makes him feel at home :)

@Hazel - Well, I'll be out of Stansted around 11 am I imagine, meaning I'll be at the usual place around 12 I guess. If it'll be too early for you to pick me up I can just head down to Cambridge and hunt down the buss :)

No problem to pop down and pick you up :D

OK, you might have to downgrade my status to 'Uncertain' because my new job is commission based and I am as yet not good enough at it to guarantee money every day, so there's a chance I might not have the funds to make it on the 10th. Especially now Tiste's lift is gone.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Yes please, if there is room. I can go home if someone needs space after travelling a longer distance though.

Oh I disagree, let's hope you do. :p

I'm training up, I think with STd in tow at least, whatever time works I can haul there for (only half hour on train). And bagsy some floor space por favor! *angelic smile*

@ Illy: Don't be a massive, massive vagina. Seriously. That's the most quiveringly vaginistic thing I've heard yet from you. Get on with it, work, sell a spleen, I don't care.

That would be great - it means an extra space in the car - you need the Citi4 bus to Cambourne.

And here I was already looking forwards to lovingly sharing the couch with you once more.
