Hello all,

My magic absence continues thanks to work, and I don't see me making any Wednesdays before the London trip, so there are a few things that need to be sorted. A by-no-means-exhaustive list:

a) Travel - I'm anticipating train. Check in is from 2pm. I'm happy to travel from Coventry and it would make sense that we travelled together, though not compulsory. Rob has been looking into this. I am easy on times.

b) Internet access - This appears a bit steep to me, but the charge for the week is £15 PER COMPUTER (including iPhone / iPod). They ask for your unique network details so I don't know if we can piggy back on one subscription. I'm not planning on using this but if people want it you need to complete this form (http://www.acorn-london.co.uk/independent-travellers/formWireless.aspx). You will need to email them as well to arrange payment at the same time. We are flat 11a.

c) Draftage - Pre-nats drafts, I suppose, should be M11 unless people have great objections.

d) @ Richard - I could do with your money sooner rather than later. I'd rather not have to fill your space with someone else.

Is there anything else? TV is only 19 inch, but I will be bringing my x-box. I imagine Race for the Galaxy will also be making an appearance.

Going for the 12.52 from Coventry to London, 14 quid no railcard south on Monday 16th August.

Assuming we're booted out at a reasonable time in the morning, might I suggest the 12.03 from London to Coventry on the 23rd, currently retailing at an affordable 7 pounds sterling.

Chris, if you can confirm these times fit in with our booking then we can go ahead and book them.

Checkout is 10am on the Monday but I guess 12pm gives enough time to get to the station. Too much maybe? An open return would be preferable.

I imagine you can grab some m11 from Hazel Joe?

Ugh, got autologged out while writing my reply. I'll get some M11 product to bring with me.

Get to Megabus and book a Megatrain down - mine just cost £6.50 return.

Leaving Coventry 13.11, Monday 16th August

Returning London Euston, 11.03 Monday 23rd August

Mine was £8.50 for same. Did you have NUS discount?

All the same it's a bargain. Booked!

£8.50 here too, plus paid for the sms because I'm a little dubious about how this works when the underpaid ticket dude comes to question you.

Bargainacious.
