But nar, wasn't having any of it.Go by train, depending where they are.. should be easy.. use www.nationalrail.co.uk, www.thetrainline.com or www.travelinesoutheast.org.uk (more thorough without pricing) to find out public transport route.Oh, if you book in advance on website (erm.. friday at latest I believe).. £15.. well worth doing if you're definitely gonna go.

MikeC Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I think we're meeting at midday Elementist! Welcome to the forums TF, again, nice to see another member from another forum posting on TPM! :PThere are various ways to get to Thorpe, I believe if you are coming from Wimbledon you need to get a train to Clapham Junction, then get a train towards Reading (or Windsor or and Eton Riverside) and leave the train at Staines. The 950 express bus to Thorpe leaves from outside the London Waterloo direction side platform, where the main station building and coffee bar is located. Simply cross the bridge, over the track, and then the bus should be directly in front of you. The bus costs £2 for this early part of the season. Trains leave Clapham and Wimbledon every half an hour in each direction.Everyone who has a Tussauds/Merlin Annual Pass must get their pass reprinted at the Annual Pass office on opening day; your current pass will not work on the turnstiles. The reprint will be free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickey Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I will be on my own until we meet up at 12, so if you see me, give me a shout.This is what I look like. I am going to try for Inferno’s first public train of the season if I get there for opening time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phill Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 It would be so useful so if someone made a banner which they bring on the day > MANIA HUBI'll have a TPM badge / something on my bag, plus you can't really miss a group of 20 fanboys / girls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickey Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Oh... I wanted to meet up with you guys after TP... but my parents won't let me... why? why do they have to be so cruel sometimes?? It is understandable though. My parents were worried when I first went to a meet up, now they couldn’t care less what I do when out on a meet, whether it share a lift, or a hotel room. Once your parents are satisfied that it is safe, I bet they will be a lot more willing to let you do other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
