You sure you got that right Stretch?! That is insane!!! I live only 8ish miles from G'ford if you need a place to crash if that helps. I live in a mansion so plenty of room.....meh no I live in a flat but can fit 2 people in if anyone is interested and doesnt mind sleeping on either my sofa or futon

Just to say - skate prices are confirmed as £5.90 and £1.90 for skate hire

Looking forward to this, 3 and a bit weeks to go! If anyone is heading up from Portsmouth I'll be getting the train as I say

Have to be a maybe not, waiting on to see if I'm working as know sometime in the next few weeks I have to work for 2 weeks solid Will let you know when I know!

I may be able to grace you guys finally with my presence just a little over a year since the last time... Depends of when I get paid.

So now we are getting closer to this meet will there be anyone else not skating?

I don't know if its possible but would anyone be able to give me a lift to Guildford as this will likely confirm my attendance to the meet.

@Mr. Fish might be able to if he's giving lifts

Mr Fish will be unavailable to give a lift as I'm not going past watford

I thought it was close considering you go to Watford Top Golf occasionally, my mistake

but I wont be leaving from mine

I shall be arriving by horse.

I thought you'd be catching the cider train, Sidders?

I'm well aware that I am earning a reputation akin to Slammer for reliability, but I can't make this now. Just realised that the date clashes with tickets for a night out that my wife got me as a Birthday present. I could still go, but as it would result in divorce I better not.

Next time...

All I'm now saying is... I will be looking awesome on this day

Hmm I seem to be on the attending list, yet I don't remember 100% confirming (unless I've lost my memory)...

However, there is a very high chance that I shall be attending

Not sure whether or not I will be skating this year - last year I was a maybe then ended up being a no as I had aching legs from the previous day out at London Zoo, where the only comfortable way to walk was to walk like a flamingo

If I'm not skating then I will happily take the role of photographer

I haven't skated for quite a while - so whether I stay on the ice for the whole session remains to be seen

Looking forward to this - need to make a note of last train(s) back to Portsmouth

Awww, me and Mikey first met at this meet last year. ^.^

Due to shortage of money and other commitments, I won't be able to make this trip now, but whoever goes, have a great time and I look forward to seeing you in march for the Thorpe open meet.

Note to anyone thinking of coming by train - just found out that South West Trains are running their Winter Sale promotion which means that if you are travelling from a SWT station to Guildford, the ticket will be £10 return, bargain!

Normally my ticket from Portsmouth - Guildford return would be £22.50

Not trying to show off or anything, but went bowling new years eve with Myk, James, Jack and Tom... we had 5 games and I won 3 so before we start, is it alright to say GG all?

So who is actually staying at Travelodge on Saturday night? So far...there doesn't seem to be many, if any at all

I'm not really sure I can as it's cheaper to get a return for that same day. And I was clever enough to forget to include skating/bowling costs when working it all out

Hopefully I'll still be able to make it...I need hugs!

I've just spotted on the list - "Mystery Member" Any clues?

Good spot!

I see Sidders has vanished off the lists and I have reason to believe he shall be in attendance

Well it's not me, I will be working, so I hope you all enjoy your time together.

I thought Sidders would be more of a 'Thing 1'
