Too right, they had about 7 Ales there worth a try!

Yes for defs. The night before sounds good also! Although I still haven't booked anything at all yet everything's a bit up in the air. So if I even go! 2 of my mates have said they might go to London that weekend, so I could share hotel with them, but that fucks up my airport as they'd be going from a different one, and if I did that one I'd go on a different day. If I'm going from my nearest one, I'll be there the night before instead due to the crap times. meaning more expense hotel wise. Or I could be staying at another mate's house (not the cunt from last time) who is going to the Friday gig with me. If that's the case I suggest Camden for drinks I dunno if I'd impose myself there 3 nights though as he lives with his brother and his girlfriend atm. This is confusing even writing this. Urgh organising!

Don't think I can justify not going to the second night now, being a Saturday and not having to spend the early bit of the week in Bristol and Birmingham and all... Haven't got a ticket yet, I'll probably eBay it or stick a thread in ticket exchange nearer the time when I have ticket money.

Indeed you've got no excuse! So get yourself a ticket ASAP so that we can all meet up again, and welcome other members

Was meant to do Friday's Brixton as well as Leicester and Cambridge. In a sense, glad the dates have been rescheduled as I'm not sure I could have managed 3 gigs in 4 days, but naturally there are more hardcore members of this forum who would've made that amount in the same day. As such, I'm ticketed up and ready for January.

Well hellooo Brixton! Friday's tickets are cleared, now I just need to find a standing ticket for Saturday as well.

I think the reason they chose to make it two dates was that more people should be able to go to the gigs, not that the people who go should go twice... oh well.

The night before would be good for the ultimate FD meetup. The night after everyone might be a little wrecked? The Hole In The Wall pub outside Waterloo station was a grand spot, very central and spacious inside. But people in the know might be able to suggest somewhere better? Just keep it relatively central for us tourists.

Can we decide on which night it's on asap, as i need to confirm flights, hotels, day's off from work etc.

Yes me too, I've been pricing and I'm slumming it in a Travelodge I think, have to see if my mate's gonna go over for the run as well first. Either Southwark or Waterloo Travelodge I think. if not i might stay with my mate for one or two of the nights so could be up round the Camden neck of the woods. He lives with his brother and his gf so I'd rather not do that option but anyway. Aaargh need to book flights as well, fuck my life.

I hope everyone's closer together this time, makes planning drinkage much easier and less worrying about getting home alright.

The night before it is then. I have yet to start the search for hotels. Camden isn't too far from the centre of London so it shouldn't be too much trouble for you. I will probably stay somewhere near enough to Hyde Park again, if i can get somewhere cheapish.

Are ye wise? Cheapest flights I can find at the minute are 45 quid return. But I know they will have went up by the time I book them *head in hands*

Since Ryanair pulled out of Belfast City airport on 31 October, the days of 20 quid return flights to Britain are over for me They still go from Derry mind you but the flights are always dearer and there's only one a day
