I suggest after the clocks have gone forward, one problem is that we are at the mercy of "engineering work" on the railways which will not have been planned that far ahead yet........ There's a very extremely thin chance, Chris and Adrian ( gray1720), that I would be able to make this event ...and my fingers shall be crossed  Cheers, Jack |

Now that is an unexpected message, Jack! Wow, I can see I need to get my thinking gear on. Is there anything that can be done to make that slim chance fatter?

Free coffee? And a free airline ticket? Free waterproofing for Jack's camera...I have a spare Tesco one. |

If you do make it Jack, I have a Pentax 100 year celebratory mug that I will gladly gift you, so long as someone reminds me to take it along ! Would be great to meet up again

Well, you all had me free coffee but, of course, the free airline ticket would be a great assistance however, I'm guessing, not very likely  . As for the drug addicts, for some mysterious reason, I have no problem in sussing them out ... or vice versa  and I, always, have me weather/rain proofing kit with me As for Oxford, I don't think it would be worthy of "No-Fun City" nomenclature after only one visit, but, one never knows  . As the Pentax 100 year celebratory cup, you have to remember that I only travel with carry-on luggage so it depends how much space I have  ... although, depending when this might be taking place, there is always the possibility that my ever present photo vest may have some space I shall be crossing me fingers and, of course, purchasing the odd lottery ticket . Cheers and thanks for the inspiration Jack |

With recent events, this had slipped my mind entirely!
I think March has just filled itself in, and April much the same, so we would be talking May at the earliest now, and prime tourist season, if anyone is still keen?

May (certainly apart from the weekend of the 24th) is OK for me at the moment I think.

Just set a date and stick to it. Those who can will, those who can't won't. I'll need to book time off to attend and I'll need to be confident it's not going to change at the last minute.
