There shall be no pictures of me! *glare*

Oh, I guess there will be less manly hugs this year too without Charune.

London is too far away for me Well not massively far but it is quite expensive on the train and I don't currently drive. Hope you have a good time though!

I shall attempt to be there, though work is making it a pain to do much outside Lincoln over the xmas period but I'll try my best!

If I turn up I can offer (somewhat less manly) hugs. And other services that are decidedly un-manly, too.

I'll give manly hugs. Jack can give effeminate hugs.

Has any date been set for this yet? Also, it would be nice to meet any people going beforehand if passing through the Midlands is what will be happening.

I will be getting a train, so the obligatory playing of Lusternia on the way there seems awfully likely, heh.

If you book in advance, it works out a -lot- cheaper. I know it is nowhere near as far, though if I were to buy the ticket on the day, going from Coventry to Euston would cost me over 50 quid compared with £12.50 if I book (2 weeks)? in advance.

I think the 18th of December was decided on, I certainly remember being asked if that was okay with me.

I'll be taking the coach in, it's only two hours long and a third of the price of the rail.

I have the 18th in my diary.

(I'm quite busy in Dec so if there is a general consensus for change, can we move to early Jan.)

We can swap numbers nearer the time.

We went to a Sam Smith's by Chancery Lane tube last year, which seemed to work out.

V. cheap though the booze isn't great and a ten to fifteen minute walk from Kings X, Euston or Waterloo.

if?

If you want to suggest another date please do. We could have it after xmas like last year if it suits people better? I'm back from sheepshaggerland on the 28th, but I am also back in work on the 4th Jan. Some time inbetween then? Can threads be turned into retroactive surveys?

Laysus said he might come if he's able, it depends on a few things.

Survey added. Vote!

Yarse, I'm trying to save money 'cause I'm between jobs at the minute. Sometime in January would be preferable for moi.

I'm supposed to be here until June, maybe August depending on how some things pan out (August is when my visa expires). It really doesn't matter to me.

I can do whenever because I'm a student and therefore I have far too much free time.

man I wish I had the courage to come to this, especially since it is near by birthday, but alas I remain a whimp

Aw.

Lack of confidence? Seriously, I made it and I'm horribly anti-social. I did horribly overcompensate with huge amounts of alchohol though. If the crowd is like last year... it is nerdy and safe
