Is the August the 9th in Southampton still happening? Who is going?
What about the Birmingham one? If I can stay at my friend's house , I might be able to do the Birmingham one, and I live near Southampton. I would have done London tomorrow but I'm going on holiday then

Aw, I'm really sorry to hear this Laura :( I hope you feel much better very soon and I will see you next month in Southampton 🙂
 
Hi Northerner

Thinking of you all today. Really can't wait till Southampton you and many have given me a real lift joining this forum so seeing u will be delightful. Let me know how today has gone. I hope your dad is on the mend also.
 
What's the time, place etc for Soton? 🙂
 
These meets sound interesting and fun. I hope to make it to the Birmingham one.
 
Hi Northerner,

Please can you tell me the name of the pub you meet at in Birmingham as I'm just arranging to stay at my friends towards the end of September for a few days and was wondering if I could try to get into Birmingham to say Hello 🙂

Ypauly and his nurse once gave us directions to the Briar Rose from New Street, starting from this post. 🙂

We will have to do new ones as there is a major re-development of new street station under way.

I should hope so; as I recall, in September 2012 there was only one lift which connected directly from the concourse to the platforms, it was virtually impossible to find by anyone unfamiliar with the station layout and hurrying to catch their train, and to reach any of the other platforms by lift, one had to find that lift, ride it down to subway level, and ride one of the other lifts (which didn't connect with the concourse) back up. 🙄
 
for those heading for York, may I suggest a cottage on the outskirts? short breaks and reasonably priced, we have stayed there a few times and its very comfortable, I will add the details if the moderators say its ok?

Yes Will, I see no problems in posting a personal recommendation. I've already booked my accommodation as I was worried that things might get booked up with it being the Yorkshire Marathon that weekend.
