    So after hearing about Nick's predicament, how he REALLY wants to come to the LAN, we were talking on Skype last night and have realisd we as a community should do something.

    So Nibbler, if your willing to goto the Lan and wear only a red cape, nappy and 'black up' then we'll pay for your train ticket + LAN fee. Standard class only naturally.

    You'll obviously have to keep in characeter the whole time.

    I'll underwrite it, and Beanfro has already pledged, who else is in!

    You do have to confirm now to reduce costs of the train fare of course

    That is one heck of a mental image.

    Assuming Nibbler's coming from Glasgow, it might be worth looking at flying from Glasgow to East Midlands (about 40 minutes away from Uttoxeter) with BMI Baby (currently about £60, but don't know how much gets added to that price). But that depends on how much he's bringing. Otherwise it would be a 5+ hour train journey and probably about the same price.

    I believe that most people coming from the north have already filled their cars up lift-wise, but there are a few WASD coming to this one who might be in the area, or at least on the way (catch a train there and then grab a lift to save money).

    You mean Wedgeh and myself? (as DJDawson isn't coming to this one)

    My car will be full and I'm not sure about wedgeh, would be easier sorting your own travel and getting someone to bring a pc with them or bring a laptop like theanimus has done

    I'll pledge if he also promises to wear a third eye on a stalk for the duration of the LAN, no point doing a thing if you're not going to do it right.

    Guys I hate to do so but I'm gonna have to let this opportunity pass me by - not that comfortable having it payed for me and if I work hard enough then I'll be in Cambridge or London this time next year so I'll be able to come and pay my own way. Really nice gesture though! FWIW: I'll be in London on Friday so if anyone wants to join me and alex for lunch i guess they would be more than welcome.

    i know iv been uncomfortably quiet recently, but im not out of the game for this one.. 100% record and all that i need to keep going - but its going to be touch and go. at the worst i will have to rob the GF's Puma, but im hoping to have my payout by then and have a car sorted. haven't forgotten about you all.
