It's the same weekend as my fathers 70th party so I'll be missing this.
But I'll make up for it at the 30th bash in Feb (if there is one!)

Badges are our responsibility Dreddd, not Thargs. If you want to be discovered...well make yourself discoverable. Subject to ticket prices I may pop down for the event.

like PVS, I'd like to go, but Oxford is a helluvah trek- I detest driving long distance, and the thought of spending most of the previous day on a train makes my head hurt! Even a train journey to Glasgow or Edinburgh is a major chore. Och! Maybe one day I'll get a job somewhere more civilised and be a bit closer to the action. Anyway, enjoy yourselves.

It's Oxford - your car isn't welcome here :D All the local parking is permit only, or only after 6.30pm Mon-Sat. Your best bet is to get a park and ride into Oxford and then walk to the pub.

I shall park in that car park under the bus station if I can`t find one nearer. It`s more expensive than London but the Dreddcon is worth it.

No Dreddcon for me. My new job starts on Friday, so I've got a night shift, followed by temping until 12.00pm, then another night shift. So My Dreddcon hours will have to be occupied with sleep instead.
And my long looked-forward-to Saturday night out back in Cardiff is cancelled too. C'est la vie.

keep thinking about going but 3 1/2 hour drive for a single day and then return.
My hotel fund is taken up with the Birmingham convention at the begining of December.
Plus got to find somewhere to park for the day but I'm sure there must be some M&C spaces near by.
