I tend to go premier inn if I'm in London, although they can be pricier at weekends. Travelodge is generally a bit cheaper but I'd check trip advisor before you book, they can be quite hit and miss. Do check where they are in relation to where you're going as some of the ones that come up as 'london' can be quite far out.
I may be staying over on the sat, have friends I can stay with but they're a little far out. If I spot any particularly good deals I'll let you know.
 
Just remembered, it's the marathon that weekend, so hotels will be tricky...

Thats a nightmare, hotels will mainly be booked up, also travel in by road/bus/coach will be bonkers...

I love marathon weekend, but having worked next to the wheel for many years I can vouch it is a travel nightmare :(
 
Pooooo trust me to pick a busy weekend....dohhh!!!!😱

Have had a quick search for hotels and no they are not cheap...not really sure what to suggest unless any of you have any friends in London.....Lou can everyone kip at ure office if it's by the wheel :D
 
I have a hotel room booked - but fares are proving to be very expensive - but still trying

A bit south of Glasgow - a tad far to walk....................

But I am working on it
 
Would love to come but have too many uni exams :( x
 
Well i decided the mother in law can accompany me but you all must behave she is president of the WI in her area so im sure she can look after you bunch no problemo haha.

So where else is rocking in leciester square as the day goes on? Am going to formulate a list of a few ideas so I am prepared 🙄

I still can't believe circle d is 2 yrs old, its been a hell of a lot of work but the feedback I get from ppl makes it allll worth it 🙂
