I think you just accidentally bought 20 train tickets for illegal imigrants. The "oops, I've booked the wrong date" thing is clearly some sort of ruse dreamt up by these people smuggling gangs that hide their members as sweet old women working in train stations.

I AM DOING. I've taken off the confirmations from people who havn't said anything about the new date on the new date and added new ones by people who have said they can come. Who've I missed?

Oh probably. I should have known by the fact that she was eight feet tall, was wearing a long coat and had four legs.

Hey! :S

I'm meeting up with my brother separately. Although I could probably invite him along also.

Hehe :D

 

Aye, bring him along. Should be a meat this one I reckon.

Dear Kenneth.

 

I just purchased my tickets of trainness. We are sitting opposite, next, or near each other. I hope this acceptable.

 

Yours,

 

Adam Boff Stevens esq.

Hrm I have booked tickets BUT I fear the train ticket man may have messed things up.

 

After giving him the list of trains and the seat (kennys) I said'd be good to sit near he tapped (pretty much punched) the keyboard for a while then muttered something, eventually offering me a ticket. He then said in a triumphant way "it wouldn't let me reserve a seat near the one you wanted, so I've moved it"

 

I fear I may have caused trouble :-((

We shall fight it out on the train...

I don't think seats will be too much of a problem. I'm sure there'll be space for 3 and a half drunken Scottishers.

That would be some impressive quantum contortionism.

Will do. Are we going to do any gaming with DSes or PSPs or whatnot do you think or is good old drinking good enough for the Northerners?
From: Mouse 2 Oct 2007 23:31
To: DrBoff (BOFF) 264 of 518

Well, if I personally had any of this DSeser or PSPser business I would be well up for it. I might be able to dig out an old phone and muster up the old Snake, (if you'll excuse a Manthorp Vernacular) via blue tooth...

 

Other people can play though, as long as they let me have a go. :( I had a Game Gear once you know.

This fighting on the train... is it between ourselves or amongst the other people?

 

(Go team QM!)

It'll start off between ourselves, and then we can try to get the ticket collector involved. See how long we can keep it up before they chuck us off.

 

When I was going down to the ATP Festival, a load of Young Farmers got on at Lancaster, on their way to a Young Farmers conference in Newton Abbot, and started having water-fights and generally arseing about in coach C. We knew it was coach C because there were a sucession of increasingly irate announcements asking them to stop arseing around. The best one was when the steward explained that due to their actions, he now had wet trousers, and that this kind of attitude was not acceptible. Eventually some policemen got on at Bristol, and walked up and down the train a bit, and on the way into Taunton there was announcement that if there was any more unacceptible behaviour, the culprits would be thrown off. The announcer didn't sound convinced.

 

So yeah - looks like you can get away with quite a bit before they finally chuck you off. The steward was a wuss.
