What about doing what the Brits call caravaning? Can campers be rented?

Yep, just go to a camp site, tell them you want to camp as a rent boy

We can find cheapish accommodation but doubt it'll be a big swanky motel - it's all relative, I suppose. Youth Hostel? (it's only a name, age doesn't really come in to it!)

During the meet just past the guys slept in my (finished) basement on cots. They were willing to sleep on sailors racks aboard a WW2 Battleship. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be comfortable with "swanky"!

I will be the first to say I haven't slept on a cot, let alone one that fit me, since I was in preschool. And I was actually kinda glad we didn't have to share room with Boy Scouts. Oh my. Just walking through that area was enough to make me question humanity.

I'm all for going to the UK though. I'll start investing into my savings. (that sounds slightly like an oxymoron)

Just imagine what it was like when the galley was serving beans!

Oh, and someone needs to take ownership of it.

Of what.....the beans?

Oh, if you mean the venue then I'd nominate Oberon, he lives the closest to London.

Double oh and let me state this from the beginning, my attendance will be subject to getting the time off and Neal turning up....I have a few things I'd like him to take back across the pond for some of those I met in Texas (especially the t-shirt brigade)

Aces lives in London... I notice he's not stuck his head in this thread though - doesn't want to get lumbered with a dozen or so hairy arse drunkards in his house

I think we all owe him a bevvy or two though!

I'm nothing but a loser.

assuming I can make it. What kind of schedule do you have (Jim)? How long does it take to get from Newcastle to Londow?

...and what about Steed? We could stay with him?
