Fucking hell man, don't try and sell that flight or anything will you?
Btw, modnazis. If you could add/alter to the tiltle of this thread saying something indicating that the North foreverescheduled meat is now on the 10TH OF NOVEMBER, that would be grand. Also, you shoud make it sticky, just in case any members of Red Watch happen to be surfing.
I would be thankful theodore.
Hurrah! I shall negotiate with my girlie (who's likely to be the only one playing snake games nowadays :C ), and I'll let you know.
Train tickets look ok too, it could work out at about £90 for all that for both of us - although I so wish we had a car instead... Ah well, next meat might be 'motorised'.
Looks like it. Come along Pete, let's make it a /huge/ meat and show them northeners that they're not alone :{)
(and we're coming along too, 95% sure)
Right so, I have tried to make the inital post's list up to date. Those still to confirm the new date are:
Andy Caer

Boff
Ant
PB
Rich
Greg
Nyaarrrghhhhh!!!
Don't worry, this isn't a "can we change the date?" Nyaarrrghhhhh, but bloody hell thetrainline.com's getting on my tits today. First time in, it told me there were no trains between Glasgow and York. Then I went in again, and it found some, and let me chose my train, and showed me the ticket prices, and then I decided to see if I could work out how the shopping basket worked, and somehow ended up losing the booking (for future reference, if you get to stage 6 of the booking process, the ticket is added to your basket. That's the ONLY WAY). THEN I went back in, and the ticket I'd booked wasn't available on the train I'd booked it for, but I managed to book another ticket at the same price at something approximating the same train*, tried to pay, and it didn't get to the confirmation screen. Phoned support, they confirmed that payment hadn't gone through, and I should try again. Tried again, got a message saying that payment hadn't been authorised. Tried another card. Same thing. Tried another card. Same thing. Gave up, and I'm going to go and speak to a human being at a train station to see if I can get the tickets I'm after. Useless bastards.
*Original was 9:30 Glasgow -> Edinburgh, 10:30 Edinburgh -> York.
Second attempt was 9:20 Glasgow -> York, which is the same train as gets to Edinburgh at 10:30. Madness.
Well, that was interesting. Went to Queen Street station, gave the lovely lady there the sheet of paper I'd printed the times of the trains I was trying to get on, she keyed them into her computer and told me the trains I was trying to get didn't exist. I asked if she could put me onto the nearest existing trains, and she did. What a faff!
Still, I'm all booked up, and will be on the 10:30 from Edinburgh to York (coach G), and the 9:30 to Edinbugger from Glasgow (probably).
"The 10.50 train to York, does not exist. Please listen for further anouncements"
Hurrah!
