Excellent! For those people arriving at the train station, you can catch a free shuttle bus up into town from the station entrance on platform 4 side. Otherwise, it is about a 15 minute walk to the Bargate (see earlier picture). The Standing Order pub is through the Bargate and a few minutes walk down High St, on your left hand side (it's a Wetherspoons).

If anyone would prefer, I'd be happy to meet you at the railway station. 🙂

Thanks Hazel! Hope you weather improves - we've had a few really heavy rain showers here today!
 
I'm tempted but not sure as (always) lots to do at home but if weather pants I may jump in the motor and drive down to see you lot! Then I'd be sober 😱, hmmm maybe not such a good idea!!

I'll let you know, and either way have a F A B time :D

Would be great to see you here Rossi! 🙂 But don't want pants weather! With this dilemma, Rossi, you are really confusing me! (apologies to Ferrero rocher 🙂)

Perhaps my grammar is not the best, and I have confused you, sorry Northe' but as always in such situations I would call my cousin - Emma!! 😉

Hope to see you all soon 🙂

I was just going to ask when people were arriving! I can be at the station for 10:30 and meet people. I'll wait at the platform 1 station entrance near the departure board 🙂
 
station is on the way to town for me, so I can always swing by and meet people.

meet is from 12 officially, but I don't mind starting early 😛
 
I'll be there around midday and I'll make my way to the pub (kind of fancy navigating my way there haha). I'll gather up anyone else arriving around midday too!
 
Right there is a train that gets me to southampton for 11:36 would anyone be able to meet me then pleassse?? 🙂

OR i can be reaaaly lazy and get the later train which arrives at 12:17 😛 lol
 
nikki, I'm hoping to be heading down to the pub around that time. I may already be in the pub with a pint and a balloon though, let me know and I can easily swing by the station and meet you 🙂
