Sound great by the way. And excuse my ignorance but what is at Elland Rd. I'm arriving in Leeds on the Tuesday 7th so I can have a look around and staying at the Radisson around the corner from the venue so am keen to find out all about the town while I'm there.

Man, if FFS was still around he'd have a field day :twisted:

PM me nearer the time and I'll try and squeeze a trip in for you! I've the Thursday already booked off but can easily take the Wednesday off too and show you the sights and sounds of Leeds if you like?

The Radisson is £89 for a double room with breakfast,but about £65 without breakfast.
That's for the room,not p/p.
