Booked that Saturday off work, so unless I get some proper crazy magazine work offer (as in something I'd be strawberry floating nuts to refuse) I'm 100% in for this bad boy. 8-) :twisted:

I'll probably book some B&B near Denster's house (can you recommend any decent priced ones)?

I'm not the only one who thinks that Denster looks like a cardboard cutout there am I?

Yeah, Buffer's car. He'll no doubt crash it, so it'll just be sat there in the drive :fp:

It's £3 in a taxi. About a mile and a half.

Can you not get to Sundeland then? Buff could you bring you from there.

At least 3 changes, and 4 hours just to get there. I may as well go for the long haul if that's the case. No offense Buff. :wub:

It's only two hours from Glasgow. Is Dunkeld two hours away from me? :?

I'd totally be in for this by the way, but it's my brother's 16th on the 27th and I'm obliged to be there, and in a good state of repair. So maybe next time. :(

Probably. 20 mins to Perth, and likely change there (and) Stirling. So seems plausible. But this way goes through Edinburgh.

Dunkeld>Haymarket>Manchester





But I'll look into prices, etc. Dunno how much money I'll have to spare by then.

Not the drinks I'm worried about. :P

Which station in Manchester am I aiming for?

Ah. Getting to Manchester from Glasgow is as easy as getting the express train to Preston(2hours 20 mins or something) and changing at Preston to get to Manchester in about 40 minutes if memory serves. So three hours and I'd be there. Unfortunately it's at a bad time and oddly expensive. :|

I didn't realise any major trains left from Haymarket, but I almost never venture into Edinburgh as it's gooseberry fool. Sorry Proto! :P
