Heartland

An ignorant question.
Related to the Smurphs gig on Oct, 9.
Have any of you experienced to drive (using a bus or train) from Leeds to London Gatwick Airport?
If yes, could you tell me how much time it would take?
I'd like to book my Tallinn-London and London-Tallinn tickets and want to know is it possible to arrive on Gatwick on 4 PM the next day after Smurphs gig. Or should I book my London-Tallinn ticket for Oct, 11 (which would be a bit more complicated because I have no holidays)?
Sorry if it was very stupid question

Thanks, John
If my memory serves me well you just said it would be OK. 2.5 hrs from Leeds to London was the thing I wanted to hear
Thanks again, you good man

Assuming the trains run on time.

Just get your Estonian arse over here. I know you're here prior to that weekend and all the offers are still open. Whatever you wanna do.

I'll be driving up to Leeds with Christian and Jessica and you after Bloc Party in Cambridge on the saturday to see the Smurphs on the Sunday.

On the Monday I'll drop them at Stansted and take you to Gatwick. Sorted.

Now all we need is a kind-hearted kindred soul in the PRWY with floor space to help us out ...

Thanks for letting me know in advance about my plans for october.

*kicking and screaming*

By the way, who are Christian and Jessica? Is it the same Christian I met in Berlin on Sisters 2003 tour? Would be nice to meet you.
(By the way, I'll be in Berlin more than once in August. Any suggestions to the evening of the 3rd of August are welcome )

Where's that PM from today that I'll post in open forum ... I'm sure it's around here somewhere ...

You know it makes sense.

I just said, that I'm not in New York before the 25th of october.

Christian is doc P and Jessica is the lady who just posted. canon docre.

Talk to the lady who just posted and get some recommendations. FGB's know all the best places to hang out.

Nope, I disagree. So, one more comment like the above and I will post it.

Yowza!

I could throw a hissy fit for you posting that in public forum before asking me in private but, fortunately, I'm not that prickly.

Mi casa, su casa. Wherever that turns out to be come October.

As I always suspected and hoped my friend. From Peterborough, Essen, Berlin and Tallinn.

Lots of in the general direction of Pudsey.

Your floorshow would be appreciated!

Oh Quiffy. How can I ever thank you for extending my horizons so? I feel a Gwyneth coming on.

I'm afraid it goes with the territory. Once you hit Gonzoid, you're fair game for a bit of bullying into a Leeds-based Heartland meet.

It's not really like that scene off An American Werewolf in London. Honest.

I really do hope you're not that hairy.

Just that you know, I will not, repeat, not sleep on the floor.

Oooh! Get you, Ms Carey.

No doubt we'll sort something out though. I'm sure yours, Pikkrong's and Christian's presence will be suitably catered for.

Fortunately, I know that John's not too proud to sleep in the cubby-hole under the stairs. Especially after I've kept him up til the dawn chorus and smoked all his cigarettes.

Nope, because I am your mattress. I am your sleeping bag. I am your duvet.

Next!?

And I'm gonna invest in a webcam.

Francis wrote:And I'm gonna invest in a webcam.

For yourself and your duvet?

No need for duvets in this heat.

And here I am, slightly overbombing this forum with meaningles posts, and I've missed the lot of you.

Pretend you look like cd's avatar and I'm sure your luck will change.

do you "pull" if you pretend to be yours?
