Youll Be Able To Get The Train
But Dont Expect To Be In London Til At Least 1
What station...
...does the train get into?
St Pancras International
Should Run Straight Though On The Thameslink/First Capital Connect Line
But I Think Theyre Doing More Engineering Work This Weekend, So It'll Terminate There I Think
looks like
Depart: 23:40 Bedford (BDM)
Arrive: 00:36 Hendon (HEN)
Depart: 00:43 Hendon (HEN)
Arrive: 01:35 London St Pancras (Domestic) (STP)
(Rail replacement bus!!!)
FFS
fun times :)
you know it makes sense!
I'm blatantly
sleeping at my parents that night
room for another?
:)
I'll ask
...
I don't suppose your dad would be amenable to me coming over with a sleeping bag, would he?
I'll ask
cheers
are we still going
to borehamwood during the day?
if i can make myself stand for that long
the i'd hope we can.
still feeling poorly?
*portly
aye :'(
aye :(
hey
i know. it will be a great but really expensive night.
kip in my mum's house in hendon
sure she wont mind
rail replacement bus?
*weeps*
I'll ask
oh, it's ok
i'm determined to make it home. just having horrible flashbacks to the last one i got in the middle of the night :'(
luckily for you I can't be arsed to find the thread
It's first capital connect isn't it?
So Kings cross, London bridge etc
The Line Doesnt Stop At Kings X Anymore
Been Replaced By St Pancras.
Might See Everyone As I (In A Very Worse For Wear State) Wait For A Train Back To Luton After Cutting Pink/Polysics!
If You See A Guy Staggering Around In London In A DEVO Shirt, Point And Laugh
x
Guntrip knows the details
this is going to be a great night out
my life in reverse!
weekend engineering work means rail replacement buses, and it'll take you almost twice as long as usual.
wtf?
im tempted to deliberately go to bedford??
what is
Bedford Esquires like?
about 300 capacity
pretty decent soundsystem.
probably the best small venue i've ever been to.
has a comedy metal bar and an even more comedy nightclub in the same building.
as others have said, you should be fine.
esquires is about a 20 minute walk from the station, or 10 minutes if you go through A Bad Part Of Town.
BEDFORD
FTW
it would seem
getting the N5 from Hendon to Camden (or beyond) will be the most sensible option, as its 10x quicker than any rail replacement service.
also, if anyone would like a ticket for this pm me.
<end of public service announcement>
i have a spare as well
:'(
how come nobody wants to see LSF
in a tiny venue?
i know its in bedford, but still...
cos anyone who wants to see them
probably is going to the Astoria one?
shush you
^^^ this
x 1,000,000
I just asked a mate
I'm awaiting a reply.
i saw em play a tiny venue
6 years ago, i dont know i just cant be arsed and i am broke
