  • It's a lovely, clean city. The Turf especially!

    • Is that the pub with the poster of Whaleboy outside and the legend "Fire regulations: this man is never to be allowed back in here!"?

      • Sadly not

        • That would be the Shakespeare's Head on Kingsway I am sure that should Whaleboy attend, the same would be applied here

          So OK, if Gibsie is not coming, it will be Dauphin at 9am as the first pickup (I am trying to get to Stansted about 10 or so minutes after Zopper arrives so I avoid their ridiculously expensive parking rates )

          • Take your time, somewhere around ten o'clock would be fine as well

            • Yeah, just thinking for enough time to let you get through customs and into the terminal building...

              • 10 minutes? More like 20-30mins after wheels down from my experiences.

                Ah, but no checked in luggage would save a lot of time of course.

                • Well, that's a potential problem. I need to bring my sleeping bag and air matras so I may have to check it in as luggage.

                  • Oh it doesn't take very long at Stansted - it's fairly quick without any luggage anyway - the main thing may be delays, but I will keep an eye on those before I set off. And we should get a bit of time in Oxford before anything kicks off...

                    • I'm unable to take any sleeping gear at all I'm afraid (due to entire lack thereof), but I can fall asleep on the floor with my bag as a pillow if I can't blag a cushion.

                      • Are we going to get caught up in a massive protest march tomorrow?

                        • Fight the power! (Or alternatively, whichever side doesn't have riot shields and batons).
                          I don't know - do protest marches usually take place in pubs? I certainly hope not.

                          • May have a forced shut-in though.

                              And they are the Holy Grail of pub visitation, wherever you may be.
