Indeed. I would like to come, but I have no money and simply can't afford the train fare to London at the moment. It's about £100 for a return ticket. In comparison, a return ticket to York is £16.

If you'd've alls booked a while ago it would be cheaper!

We got snazzy advance tickets that just over £20 each return, bought on the 11th of August. :]

So, with all these wusses dropping out, what's the current headcount?

I think approx 20..25? Not too bad, even though it'd be more if certain people could plan properly. :@

Since there's exactly a week to go, an updated first post would be good.

And maybe rename the thread to something more fitting... "Three northerners walk into a bar..." :P

I'm still on, but will need to be away before the last train around midnight.

Good good. :)

 

Though I'm more moaning at Kowsix to go update the first post - hasn't been changed since May, and 80% of the maybes are now definites, and some of the others have wimped out, so it'd be good to have a clearer idea (and maybe also list arrival/departure times for those that know).

 

Oh, and was someone going to phone up the Fitz and warn them to make sure drink and nacho stocks are high enough for our impending descent, or not bother with that?

You. You're the organiser, so get your lazy arse up and do what I just said to Boff.

Can't; I'm busy.

(Unless you can tell me how to get an "image X of Y" into the header of a Lightroom web engine Lua template - because that simple damned task isn't in any documentation or examples and is driving me round the bend - and if I can just figure out that one tiny thing I can be done in no time.)
