hahahaaa! No you don't ;)

I'm not sure of a meeting point - can people tell me how well they know York & then we can figure something out ;)

I'll start: I have a vague understanding of how to get about & know how to get from the train station/various parking places to the city itself.

the train station is about a five minute walk from the main city centre. It might be easier to meet at the station if people don't know the route to the centre very well?

Yeah, perhaps. There's also quite a lot of parking nearby for those driving (last time I was in York we parked behind the train station....but before the NRM)

Good idea. I'd suggest a particular place but I reckon it'll be easy to spot people! :lol: Otherwise....there's a coffee stand just before the exit (or entrance :P ) I'll probably be there!

yeah the main entrance has enough room for loitering :)

Good point about the car parking too

The last time I went to York we drove, parked for free in that shopping centre place then caught a bus into the centre.
Not too sure if I'll be driving or training it, depends how much train tickets cost I guess!
Doubt the OH will be coming.
Not entirely sure I will even be wearing dreads seeing as the only time I wore them last year was at Bloodstock :S

ah yes, park and ride can be a lot cheaper than parking in town if you're on your own :)

I won't be wearing dreads either as my hair is less than an inch long lol

I should be coming, fingers crossed! Depends on if I can get the time off work and if I have the money (y) But I wanna meeet you girls!
If I come, I'll probably bring my other half, as I live in Bristol I'll have to get the train up to manchester, then either meet some of the manc girls and come with them, or bring the bf.
I've NEVER been to york so have nooo idea! haha

I was going to suggest 12ish because then it gives folks from further afield time to get here? Guess it depends on how far people are coming... And how long we want to spend together ;)

Just checked train prices and it's only £7.50 to get there if I booked today to go this Saturday, so I'll prolly come on the train and book later. Don't want to book in advance and it get cancelled!
Anyone else coming from or through Sheffield?

Are we going to have a "I'm attending" list, or just play it by ear?

I'll do an attending list on the op yes?

I've just checked too & £11.50 return from mytrainticket.co.uk yayness!!! I just need a few weeks to go by so I can book it! :lol: or see if my driver friend wants to come with :D

Oh & the earliest I could arrive by train is 11am, so lunch time might be an idea.

Just an idea! :)

I can't book for that weekend for another 2 weeks anyway, though I am hesitant to book this for in advance just in case everyone pulls out :? Though I guess if that did happen, I'd be off to York for a day trip, or just have to lose £12. Meh. We'll see.

I've already told the boy he is on hair install duty the weekend before :D I won't be bringing him though, he can stay home and play computer games in his pants.

It's the weekend after my birthday & a few days after Bomber's birthday....I'll definitely be coming :D

right, will add an attendees list to the OP - if anyone wants my mobile number, PM me & I'll send you it. (I know this has been done on previous meets, to "mini meet" on trains & things)

I might do then Jessica ;) I have some new curlies coming soon too.

I'm still very much a "quite likely". I can't make any guarantees right now and I won't really know for sure until the rotas are done for April which is ages away yet.
