We payed £269 for three nights B&B in Oktober at the QUEENS, in July it will cost £360 for two nights.

I might sleep in a tent, even if it's not the mainland temperature of July.
I might even stay awake naturally because of the jetlag..

Pfft. Camping, people
It's the only way I'll get my parents to let me go. I'm sure they wouldn't turn down a trip to Yorkshire, even if I will be out until all hours

Whoo HOOOOOOOO!!! Am really glad if it IS that weekend - the weekend we break up sees me rushing straight in to a fortnight of pony-patting.
And July really IS 'orange' time

I'll keep Motz safe, but I feel we'd be safer if we shared a tent.

Seems that travelodge thingy you're talking about give a room at £55 a night (some special offers there, but can't figure out if they're really applicable to that one), Ibis seems to do it for £45, so that's even better
EDIT: Whoops, the Quiff was faster

a train from manchester airport to leeds is about 20 quid (single) or 25/30 quid (return) IIRC
