keep july free...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

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.. :innocent:

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 ;D

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 :D :D :D

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 :D

EDIT: Whoops, the Quiff was faster :D

a taxi from leeds/bradford aiport to the center of town is somewhere between £20 and £25.

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

What we need is as many of us in the one place as possible, with a bar that stays open 'till 4/5 am and.........that's it really, Francis, Derek R and myself can organize an early morning curry...........oh, and we need a big "Heartland table in the bar, just like the Queens :D :D

@Quiffboy :notworthy: for the details :D
