Who's going to Hi-Ex 2012?

[Proudhuff]

Good luck with that... you'll be walking like a cowboy all weekend

[Dandontdare]

I intend to go on the bike

Cool - The HellTrek radwagon can arrive with a lawmaster escort!

[Graham Pearce]

I intend to go on the bike

heck, cycling from Preston to Inverness is only 360 miles. That is do-able over 5-6 days...

...although I wouldn't be able to carry my stock on the back of the bike though...

...and it would be cold...

...and wet...

...and there are lots of hills...

but apart from that cycling does sound like a good idea, but if I can make it to Hi-Ex then I'll be best going by car/train/plane!!

[CrazyFoxMachine]

Will be aerocrafting it from Bristol I suspect - Jimbo is CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGED TO JOIN ME

[NeilFord]

Yup, I'm going to be attending, hope to put some faces to names etc.

[Proudhuff]

I think we're going to need a bigger boat hall

[Gavin_Leahy_Block]

I think we're going to need a bigger boat hall bar.

Fixed that for you.

[I, Cosh]

Maybe.

[chicken]

Think I'll be going to this. Does anybody know any nice hotels in Inverness that aren't too pricey?

I stayed in a place next to the train station a couple of years ago and I'm looking to to avoid it if I can.

Jimbo is CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGED TO JOIN ME

This is true. The 31st is my birthday, so this can be my present to myself!

Does anybody know any nice hotels in Inverness that aren't too pricey?

I stopped in the Ramada encore in January this year, it was very nice - friendly staff, clean, quiet etc... I ate in the retaraunt on one night because I couldn't be arsed to search for something with a little more personality, but it was actually pretty good.

Overall it's not too keen on price, but was comfortable.

[Dandontdare]

I'm torn between the Ramada (only have to stagger to the lift each night; possible convention-rates tba) or a local B&B (cheaper but less handy)

[dangermouse3597]

There is a Premier Inn less than 2 miles from the Ramada also a Travel Lodge and a Holiday Inn Express within a few miles if that helps folks.
