Heartland

Thanks everyone for the help in the ticket hunt!
Great excitement abounds!

Just wondering if/where people are staying?

I've booked the Holiday Inn which is just about the only place which wasn't totally booked out and didn't look like a bit of a scarey/stabby bnb (who advertises their BNB with black and white line drawings instead of photos- frightening!)


*please feel free to move this if I've posted in the wrong place. I am incompetent

You might want to get a taxi from there.

I'm staying with a rather nice man

Aye, Googly maps says its about a mile? I don't mind taxi-ing, you can always depend on taxi drivers for a bit of banter.

Apart from ones in Nottingham -

Me: Robin Hood is from Nottingham, isn't he? I love Robin Hood! Do you like Robin Hood?
Taxi Man: *stony silence*

he had probably never heard that one before

I'm supposed to be staying at the Thomas James with every other poor soul.

I suspect I'll wake up in a tree.

Aye, me too an' aw.

How does it go again? Oh yeah. "I prophesy disaster."

some sort of map is in order

It's only Leamington Spa. What could possibly go wrong?

everything and/or anything

Were stopping Alan Partridge style. The Days Inn. Warwick Services on the M40. £45 for a double room.

Please ensure you suprise the hotel staff with a little prank or two.

I've gone for the Thomas James, too.

Sleep, however, will be very much optional.

I think the Thomas James was booked out? I am sure I looked at it with a view to booking? Hmmm Most things within a two mile radius were fairly well booked out

A surge in "goth" tourism, who'd a thought it?

Leamington is afraid. Very afraid.

There will be extra Police on every corner, trained in dealing with the goff element and taught to recite 'Moonchild' word for word instead of using pepper spray or tazers. Allegedly.

You'd be suprised how often that'll work. Even the most sinister, speed fuelled monstrosity can be stopped in his tracks by a well placed "It's righteous day move outta my way!"

Sounds like fun. I envy you all!

Even the sleeping in trees bit?
ESPECIALLY the sleeping in trees bit

Think I got the last room at the Lansdowne Hotel it says parking onsite possible

There's always next year - go on, you know you want to!

Well,it wasn't when I rang,but then that was nearly four months ago
The G/F and I are in there,£60 for the night,but apparently it's two minutes walk form the venue,so money well spent,looking forwrd to the breakfast crowd on wednesday morning!
