So, I totally got time off for 3-13 May, but thanks to the joy that is international flights, I won?t arrive until 4 May. 

Those of us that can, totally need to figure out a time to ALL meet up and be silly together.  I suggested a real sleepover... like get a hotel room (or more [at least one with a kitchenette for the one with dietary issues]) somewhere in between where all of us are and have a rewatch TOGETHER! Because it would be AWESOME!

*is giggling like an idiot right now*

:0 How exciting!

Well, I'm unemployed at the moment and don't see myself getting employed before then, so timing's not so much of an issue. It is the destination, as long as it's accessible by train, I'll be reet.

So sad I can not go T___T  but you girls enjoy!! and have lots of fun!!!

Couldn't we get together and get a holiday rental apartment in somewhere like London, that's accessible to us all? (Mils I assume you're flying into there, and is it accessible to Down? I just know that Rev and I have really good rail links to there.) I think if there's at least four of us, it shouldn't be too expensive.

~sleepover~ XD

London's a couple of hours on the train from Norwich, that sounds reasonable? .........We might want to try the end of the week rather than the beginning, though, it's the bank holiday monday, and there are enough people in London ANYWAY... although it might actually be impossible to tell........... XD

geh, IDK, BRAINS have none, but London! Can be got to! Reasonably easily as long as we don't break down at Diss! (I... am too familiar with Diss station) (.......please do not taunt me with the phrase 'good train connection' XD)

(pffffffft London who needs London for airports. NORWICH~ WE HAVE A NOT-QUITE-A-HUT~ and it's quicker to fly to Amsterdam than it is to drive to Stansted. XD)

...............................................................I would just suggest that if we do so, no one let me near the Tower of London and the Armoury therein. (Took Mum HOURS to get me out last July. HOURS. Everything was so shinyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy)

I?ll already have spent HOURS on planes. What?s a few more hours by train? I prefer the train anyway, but you can?t exactly cross an ocean by train.

This is why I like hiding out at the end of the day, because SO MANY PEOPLE, but... I don?t really think it will be too busy?  I was there over Easter last year, and it wasn?t much worse than when I was there the summer a few years before.

I easily spent hours there myself last April, but A was all for it. Weapons and things!  YAY!

Stop being logical about this.  It?s nonsense, all of it.

And flying into Norwich was way cheaper (and my tickets are purchased).  But we could still meet up in London or somewhere there abouts.  I know my way around London well enough.

I arrive in Norwich on the 4th at 9 in the morning and leave again nearly 10 on Monday the 13th.  I?m sure we can work something out, easily enough. Who wants to organize that? 

But as a warning... if we did London, I would insist on seeing Wicked again, whether or not anyone went with me. I don?t care if I get to see it here again in September.  (possibly Phantom instead, because Sept, but most likely Wicked....)

A quick National Rail enquiry tells me that London is more or less two hours away from the Shire (Kelly), Manchester (myself) and Norwich (you two). So that sounds optimal. I don't know if we'd all want to stay in London for a night or two.

As for seeing Wicked, when I went to see it in London, the theatre was half empty, so if you really want tickets, Mils, I don't think it'll be an issue. I also stayed in a Premier Inn that was around the corner from the theatre and it was just so ideal.

Dibs on not booking any accommodation though o__o

I?m cool with it.  Trying to pick up a few more hours at work for more spending money, so shouldn?t be a problem.

Theatre was packed when we went, but it probably depends upon day of the week/time of year/etc... As I said, we were there over Easter week last year, not considered before making plans, because we were just trying to work around Passover.  Forgot Easter entirely.

NOT IT!  [but I suppose I can if need be]  Though it might be easier for someone a bit more local to make calls, since I would be doing everything online, as I don?t like paying an arm and leg for international calling.

SO!

We have accommodation here in a "deluxe one-bedroom apartment" because it's the only place that was in budget and available and TO SPECIFICATIONS. It has one double/twin bedroom and one double sofa bed, a full kitchen, free wifi and a big tv. I think it's also directly above a supermarket. It's approximately 30 minutes on the tube from all three of our train stations. Check-in is at 16:00 on 9th May and check-out is 11:00 on 11th May! It works out about ?60 each all-in, I hope that's okay. I know I took a while to book, but I promise you the prices have remained the same. xD;

Rev and I are arriving in London at 14:23 (Euston) and 14:20 (Waterloo) respectively, as these were the cheapest tickets we could get. xD We'll meet up and then meet you guys somewhere??

Mils and Down if you would like to let me know the most appropriate email addresses you want me to forward the info to, that would be amazeballs.




WHERE WILL WE GET FOOD GUYS?!
Should have wished for unicorns.

Ah yes, Tesco Express. There's also a Sainsbury's down the road.

And an Iceland even furtherer down!
