Meeting fellow HLers is what it's all about. See Paris thread. The Sissies are a (worthwhile) distraction at the end of the night. 8)

I reacon we should write our HL names on our hands or something :D but then that would cause some confusion when you are following random people around trying to get a glimpse of their hands :oops:

Dunno, but (fingers crossed) it's looking like ruffers will be going to the ball after all....

I have a tiny one bedroom flat with a biggish sofa if you're desperate boss man.

There's a Travel Inn type place in County Hall, has availability 92 for a double, tenner in a cab. (bored at work? me?) How close do you need to be?

That would be the easy solution, beyond that not sure.

There's an ibis at Euston which might make sense, bit closer and if you're on the train are you from there?

@ ruffers: yep, currently working out the "time off work" situation as we're going to need the tuesday-friday off to do laaahndan, leeds & manc, and at this point in time neither of us are sure if we can get the time off :?

if its feasible then yep, the ibis @ euston will be the fella :D

Forget the travel lodge as the prices have now shot up to £66 :eek:

Remember to check the pictures of the room your staying in. I would hate you to pay all that money for the Ibis only to find that the wallpaper isn't to your taste. :lol: :innocent:
