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

there's always the travelodge and the ibis - they have pretty fixed prices IIRC
i'll see if i can locate any cheaper options in the meantime...

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 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
