        Was that the place the summer meeting was last year?
        Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

          Yes, the exact same place.

            Now Ipswich may be possible, as I have been running a friend to and from Colchester a lot.

            Now late July, London? Hmmm, I'll 'see what I can do'...

              Wrong quote, I meant the one about Ipswich

                Ipswich would be an absolute nightmare for me. Anyone bar Starchild who can get to Ipswich can get to London 90 minutes quicker in any case...

                  I could drive to Ipswich in a reasonable time, provided the A12 was empty. Much more likely than the M1 being clear.

                    Where exactly is Ipswich?

                      And what is there in Ipswich that could possibly make it worth an additional two train changes and 2hrs?, not to mention the extra cost?

                        Near the coast, in Suffolk. 50 miles East by SouthEast of Cambridge.

                        Can't think of any reason to go there.

                          Oh no, I am not seriously suggesting a meeting in Ipswich, but I will have to meet up with Starchild when he is over and I pass through the place. I would prefer it to be a city that is easy to get to. And the easiest cities to get to are the cities in Yorkshire (Hull, Leeds, York, Sheffield), Manchester and London. Any others are a pain to get to, including Birmingham and Bristol.

                          So London seems like the best bet, I may even try and coincide it with a trip to Oxford and take the coach down from there, allowing me to have a tipple or two

                              That's odd - I didn't find Bristol hard to get to at all.
