Indeed, sorry to hear that.

On the flip side, means we've got a bash to cheer you up with :)

Sorry to hear about the break-up, but glad the bash is still on and I finally get the chance to meet you, although a shame if I don't get to meet LadyJG as she sounds like a lot of fun. We should probably alert the major of Blackpool about the number of legendary drinkers in the area so s/he makes sure all the bars are stocked. Let us know if you need money up front for the hotel stuff and/or what we say when we get there. I'll be driving up.

I was thinking to grab the boys from BHX at about 12pm Friday if that's okay with them, and saunter up to St. Annes, which'll be around 2-4 hours depending on traffic/speed cameras. Ofc can help with any ferrying from the station/booze shop/hotel required.

LadyJock has confirmed that she will pop in and say hello to all you bummers and will do a breakfast for us.

I have amended the front page as it is now officially a JockBash, as far as I can tell there are 11 of you coming so if i have the numbers wrong i apologise, Stoat hurry up and fix the Scheduler, makes it easier to keep track of these things. :)

Thanks to all for your sympathies, to be honest it's a good thing for both of us, and I can now do what i want without any guilt or worries... is that a good thing? :?

See you all on friday

Jock! Two things.

1 - Sorry to hear about you and winestorm. Hopefully everything will fall into place for you.

2 - I'm going to have to be a cupcake and pull out. :(

I just plain can't afford the expense or the time away from the house right now, there's just too much stuff to try and get sorted. I'm gutted. As you'd sorted the place out and paid for it I'll send you monies to cover hotelage. PM me bank details dude.

No worries Pete, I can fill the space, Jockgit Jnr (my spawn) will fill the gap. Sorry you can't come, we will have a farting contest in your honour.

Tickets bought, should be getting in to St Anne's-on-the-Sea at about 13:30. Looking forward to eradicating a few more livers! I'm guessing cash on arrival is the modus operandi?

Don't know what the modus operandi is but usually it would be cash on arrival :P

That way I can get it paid off and out of the way, then i can work out how much I have left for booze and loose wummin... :ahoy:

Shame about that Berky, you could have brought the missus.

Friday is approaching fast, so last chance to bottle out or reconfirm. Still haven't worked out what to do on Saturday, went to Pleasure Beach last weekend, and while fun it was fekkin expensive, would be nice to find a cheaper alternative... I have 3 days to figure it out..

I completely monged and forgot it was this weekend. I'm gonna absolve responsibility and claim it's all because the 5cheduler isn't here. (but really it's because i'm a idiotic student now).
Looks like i can still scrape enough pocket change to go though, so you lot are stuck with me. :D

OK final instructions...

When you get out of the station their is a pub called The Crescent, I vote we meet up there first and then make our way en masse to the hotel.

If anyone is going to be very late then PM me and I'll send my mobile number... in fact can we have a quick roll call of when you think you'll be arriving please.

I'll be there for 1330 as it stands but I'm not constrained to any specific train so can be later if need be!

Not any earlier than 2pm, hopefully half-past, but we'll let you know on the way if we're massively delayed. Do you have a post code for the station/pub?

Edit: I found it on Google maps.
