I request that both a still camera and a film camera are taken and employed. Oh, and that someone writes a recount afterwards. The internet is nosy and wants to know what the fuck you British get up to.

I've got a camera and can write up a recount afterwards. And seeing as you were good enough to do that about yours, we can do the same for ours.

Fantastic! I look forward to massive shenanigans.

The shenanigans will be off the hook, I might even wear a hat!

Okay, let's just pick a station, and put it on the OP.

Let's go to Kings Cross, that's large enough to have trains come from everywhere. We should all meet somewhere near Kings cross. Those of us getting trains will want off-peak tickets, that's departure before 9am, and returning after 5. It's like £100 cheaper that way. My train is priced at £44 return. A tube pass will be like a tenner or something, and any busses we might need I will hold back another tenner for. So that's like, £60 travel for me (two weeks college EMA, easy)

As for doing stuff, I'm gonna bring another £50, just to be on the safe side... London's extortionate.

I've gone off on a tangent here, shall we decide on meeting at Kings Cross, 1pm at the latest? I might work up a banner on Photoshop for you to shove on the OP.

I was going to wait and see how many people are flying in from Scotland/Ireland. It might be better if we meet up near one of the airports.

Edit - weekends are off-peak anyway.

 

[Anachronism]

New question. What station in London am I going to? I'm getting my train price.

Erm, not sure yet. But we'll probably all need Underground tickets for the day anyway.

King's Cross is probably the ideal station, to be honest. It's easy to get to via underground and overground trains, and a lot of the cross-country trains go there as well.

 

[Neosage]

Ago, are all the midlands escapist going to meet somewhere? Or what?

 

[Ago Iterum]

Im only 16 so i doubt i would be able to get in on the fun.

This sounds fun, I'd go if I was 18, but I am only 16

You two, shush and join us. We're going somewhere where those over 18 and under 18 can have fun.

 

[nolongerhere]

I'm in scotland, and I'm interested, just need to know where in london, and try and scrounge enough money together to get there.

We'll see how many under 18's are interested, if there's a lot of you we'll get you involved somehow.

And no, it WON'T be illegal.

I've got a route worked out from Coventry that costs £44. We'll have to find a way to get you here. There is a bus from Leicester, the 48 Stagecoach, which goes from Leicester to Coventry, but you'd have to catch it at about half 6... Worth it for the day out though, right? How long does it take you to get to Leicester? Can you get a lift there?

What sort of hat? This is important, you see.

Well, you'll need your parents permission then. They'll have to sign a form

Go on a train website and try and find out what time you'd arrive at Kings Cross. I'll do the same. I'm looking to arrive about noon-1pm.

Whereabouts in Scotland are you? We'll (hopefully) organise flights to London from Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Ahh, there's the problem, I own no hats. I could buy one for the occassion... But what sort of hat would be appropriate?

Could you add a poll to the thread then asking ages so you get an idea of whos what age?
I am 17 in june.
But it soudns liek it could be fun, i will try and get there.

 

[Liberaliterr]

Do they have an age requirement for travelling alone on trains and such? I'm sixteen so it should be ok.

A beret! I've got the bowler, Jim's got the Trilby/Fedora, Ultrajoe has the Ultrabeanie..
