Eckauskas Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I seriously doubt this will come down to season tickets. More likely it'll be loyalty points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Morgan Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I want to go and was willing to go but the person I was supposed to be going with doesn't fancy the 9 hour journey on the mega bus FFS! I have a lot of loyalty points too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboJen Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 This. What time of bus are you guys getting? We're on the overnight one on Wednesday, then back at 3 on Friday. Hotel booked for ?25 a pop On the early one on Wednesday, 0535 I think, so that we can catch a bit of the atmosphere on Wednesday night. Back home on the 0900 on Saturday morning. Gonna make a wee holiday of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyJambo Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 We're on the 07.30 from Waverley arriving 11.55 Kings Cross. Staying in the European Hotel (I figured it was on omen) on Argyle Square (wee Scottish link being another omen!?). Nothing special but clean, decent reviews, full brekkie included and 2 mins from station and 5 from the Vic underground. Back 26th at 18.30 arriving in Waverley at 23.00 ?354 for 5 of us all in. Happy with that :-) If I don't get a ticket then I don't get a ticket. We're all ST holders and all have decent loyalty points. Best case we're there and it's happy days. Worse case we're watching it in some pub and have had a nice wee jolly to London Town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redm Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I believe I'm going on a coach. Nay, a 'bus of desire' apparently... I can't lie, the idea of spending that many hours on a bus freaks me out a little bit but I'm assured the entertainment value will more than compensate for the comfort levels lost by not travelling by train or plane. Either way, I'm stupidly excited. I'm actually having to remind myself to talk about something/anything else every once in a while so as not to completely bore my non-Jambo mates. Thing is, I can't really think of anything else to talk about....help.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
