The A34 should be fine coming, but not going, by the sounds of it.
Rail replacement buses are a PITA, but I did once have the joy of riding on Somerset County Cricket Club's team coach, which obviously had nothing better to do in winter.

Best wishes to the meet up and all who travel in hope.
The issues in getting anywhere reliably sound positively Byzantine.
I hope you all meet up successfully and have a great day.

Most desperate to get to the pub: Nige. The rest of us didn't want him drinking on his own.
Best dressed: Ivor E Tower.
Most like their internet persona: all of us. WYSIWYG.
Most interesting camera: The Radcliffe one, closely followed by the Contax twins.

Thank you to all, especially to Adrian for arranging this wonderful day out to see some of the interesting places in Oxford with some excellent historical commentary. The only photo I took with the phone; a splendid pair of Contaxes (is that the correct plural of Contax?): Attachments:

Adrian, thank you for organising a great day wandering around Oxford in the sunshine, your local knowledge is very impressive, or did you make up all the little details?
It was good to meetup with Martin, Jules, Nigel, Chris and Adrian + Mrs. Adrian.

Did anyone remember to take pictures? Why would we want to do that? Keith and I's are all on film, but the others certainly took a few. |

Thanks for organising yesterday, Adrian. It was great to meet some other humans IRL. Even Martin was OK. |
