You really are like a kid waiting for Christmas, Andre. I used to help my kids know how much longer it would be before a big exciting day, in 'wake-ups'...so it would be 3 more wake-ups for me.

I am soooo jealous. You'll all have a fantastic time!

I don't know Helen. Initially they were not coming. Now It seems that they may have changed their mind.

We'll see.

Fingers crossed I'll get the day off work, would it matter if I was a little late?

Jayne, don't worry about being a little late, I am famous for it (a bad habit I know). We'll all be loitering around the loach section for a while before heading off to the pub for lunch.

David, are you sure your folks won't let you come down? Could you get the train here? I'd willingly pick you up from Peterborough train station. (Same goes for Soph).

......I have Aborichthys elongatus! :wink:

Those times should be fine, although i'm sure to get some grumbling about the early start. (-:

If there is anyone from the Guildford area or indeed on route (around the west/north side of the M25 then up the A1) who would like a lift just drop me a PM.

if anyone else needs a lift from the norfolk direction, then shout. i could get you from Norwich or Kings Lynn stations


Jayne, dont worry about being late. if you have one, PM one of us your mobile number, so if you havent appeared till very late, we can check you are OK, and not go without you (if you want to that is :D ). even if you dont know what we look like, you will know. we will be the bunch of overexcited and drooling people. we dont need anoraks to give us away :lol:
