One way or another I'll be there, flying is looking the most likely, 5 hours plus on a train is just too damn much, all it would take is one whiny child/wanker with annoying mobile ring tone/other annoying person and I don't think I could be held responsible for the outcome..

Like the Oobs said, I shall definitely be there and have already sorted out travel arrangements and that.
I will also be doing an extra night of boozing in glasgae, so Bamabe, if you have any top tip recommendations regarding bars on a Friday night, that'd be ace!

Pretty much anywhere on Bath Street's cool with Bloc, Moskito and Bunker coming particularly recommended. Personally I'd simply start at one end and work your way along.

We can't make it, unfortunately. Have to be in London. We could perchance have a minimeet in london for other such people with lame excuses? Also, Louche is studiously ignoring me (she won't write, she won't phone, oi vey!) so I'm shying coconut style at the mo. [petulant sulk face]

Me and NWOD are now all booked up to fly from Luton, arriving earlyish afternoon, anyone who knows Glasgae fancy meeting us in the afternoon so we at least have some vague idea where we're going? Posts: 2337

I wouldn't be averse to an afternoon pint or two. Where are you flying in to - City or Prestwick?

It's Easyjet and it just says to Glsagow, so I'd imagine city.

Cool. I would've offered to pick you up if it was Prestwick because that's about 40 minutes away on the train, but since it's City there's a shuttle bus which costs about £3.50 I think, and will be quicker than me in my little red car. I could meet you both at Buchanan st. bus station, if you like.

It is City. It's quite cleverley worded to make it seem really brill. The description rattles on about how beautiful Glasgow is and then says 'Unlike Prestwick, Glasgow city airport is...'

Err...this isnt about Glasgow, but since you are all thinking about cheap travell options has anyone ever been on the Megabus? Are they coaches with comfy seats and a toilet etc, or claped out decomissioned town busses that have been rescued from a scrap yard and had "Megabus!" painted on the side?

They are quite nice Abby, from what I have seen of the ones that stop outside my place of work. Double deckers with a toilet by the look of things. I shall investigate further.

I got the megabus to birmingham to visit Sidney and pleased all my fellow megabus passengers by eating a smoked mackerel and boiled egg and mayonnaise pitta bread sandwich for breakfast. The megabus has seats like a bus and a toilet downstairs - but I didn't use the facilities so can't pass comment. I sat on the top deck and in the opposite aisle slightly in front sat a cute male who I spied on for most of my pleasant journey. I'm not sure if cute males come as standard though.

I'm afraid thou shalt have to knock me off that list. I would love to come, but it's our office christmas party that night, and I intend to get disgracefully drunk and make a terrible mistake with a certain lady in the office.

I did a Megabus from Manchesta to London and it was a double decker with no toilet, and I was really hungover and it was really hot but I didn't dare rehydrate myself for fear of ruptured bladder reprisals.
I shall get lots of reading done on the train and chat winningly to the many bekilted sexxy highlanders that will doubtless be sharing my carriage.

Thanks, but I'm coming back on Monday, and cleverly combining a great weekend with a day off work. I'm fucking brilliant.

I spoke to Miffy about it. It dosn't look good. Although, she did sound like she was having sex when she answered the phone. Either that or the handset has been wired up to the mains and caused buzzing interference on the phone and slight gasps as it shocked her ear. I'll try to work it but it seems less than likely.

I still really want to go to this but if the trains are all up the pox on Sunday I'm kyboshed (I need to get to Preston for about 3pm the following day) - plus a hangover will not be welcome that day.
Alas people I am going to have to concede defeat me thinks and try for the next one.
The wierd thing is, due to the change in tour, I shall probably fly out of Glasgow the following Saturday, so if there are any stragglers fancy a pint?

You might still be able to get to Preston, Waynster - I think it's only round Lahndan that the engineering works are on.

Yarrs, I was still able to get a ticket and my train back home on Sunday will stop at Preston, I'm sure. So, you know, it should be ok. You can always phone the operators to make sure though.
