I'm hoping to go to York in the evening, so I can't help with a lift.

I've had a look at trains, and there is a direct train from Manchester airport to York at 2223, getting in at 0003. Currently ticket is only £9.00.

Check out www.thetrainline.co.uk

I am asking a favor to the english guys.

For some work reason (i change my work the 5th january) i will arrive at liverpool airport (21h pm) or manchester (21h35 pm) very late the friday nights (other french guys form paris will arrive sooner with mini bus but i can't come anymore with them).

My favor is : can someone pass at this time in liverpool or manchester and bring me with him to York ?

I hope it will be possible. the other possibility is to find someone to replace me.

thanks you for your attention :)

Hi Julien - I believe there may be people travelling late on the Friday or early on Saturday from the north west area. Hopefully someone can assist you if the train Barney suggests is no use. I'll spread the word.

Glad to hear it!

So... 15 teams in. Thanks again to all for signing up.

Enough money now in the pot to cover the venue costs, a premium quality gift for all entrants, plus prizes and trophy for the champions.

Any further teams thinking of signing up please don't delay! :-D Will allow me to plan for some extra prizes, trophies, spot prizes and other details.

Keep em coming!

I think Rodders and I have persuaded a couple of guys from my gaming club to form a team with us. There's some negotiation going on with spouses but I hope that we'll be buying tickets soon. I've already booked my hotel so I'm definitely attending :)

Closest thing to a contract would be the rules pack which requests:
UKTC rules pack wrote: ...the captain should provide the following information:

-Which nation the team represents, either from within the UK (Scotland, Wales etc.) or if from overseas...
So on registration you were asked to tell me what constituent nation of the UK the team represents (in the manner of the football/rugby world cups, commonwealth games etc.).

If you absolutely refuse to follow this request I'm sure we can discuss further at EB over a G&T and sort something out...

Hugs :-)
