    HEXUS.social - Annual Bletchley Park Meet -24th October 2009

    I have said I'm going to do this again this year - so I thought I'd get it in early.

    The Bletchley Park meet will be on the 24th October 2009.

    Same format as other years.

    12pm - Meet at Bletchley Park.
    12pm-4.30pm - Bletchley Park visit - There are still things I want to see properly!
    5.30pm - Dinner somewhere - maybe Red Hot again as it caters for even the fussiest of people!
    After dinner onwards - Either those that are left back to mine for some drinkies or we'll hit a pub somewhere (Ship Ashore in Willen - Moby's Local)

    Rooms @ Travelodge are £29 at Milton Keynes Central at the moment - non refundable. Or £59 refundable (We'll try and pair you up to save on costs!)

    EDIT: £39 at the moment at Milton Keynes Central Travelodge - 25/08

    Please let me know if you're intending to come so I can get an idea of numbers - I'll update nearer the time - but life is so busy at the moment that I'm having to plan 3 months in advance!

    (if you're voting on the poll - please post here too - i screwed it up!)

    T xx

    re: HEXUS.social - Annual Bletchley Park Meet -24th October 2009

    Am I right in thinking that to get a train down from here, I'd have to probably get a train to London and then a train back up to MK?

    Either way, bit of a pain that train tickets can't be booked more than 3 months in advance, otherwise I'd confirm right now!

    yarp, i'm in

    Oh and I was thinking about this the other day. I'm quite tempted to drive down as I have a bunch of stuff I would like to donate to the Computer Museum. So if I do, I may be able to give lifts

    It's a bit too far off for me to say for certain but if I can scrape together some cash I'll come down

    I doubt it man, I got a train straight there out of new street station without having to go via London last time, there's a national express stop not far away as well if I remember rightly.
