Illustration Symposium next Wednesday!

Hello people,
I was just wondering if people who are planning to go to the Symposium next week have arranged how they are going to get there? I know you have Chiu! It's about £16 return (with a young persons card) on the train, unless anyone can drive that is?!

what time does the synposium actually start?! I emailed chiu but he either didn't get it or decided not to tell me :P I need to get the tickets booked soon or else they will be mega expensive!

I can't drive...not sure there is anyone who is going who can either x.x! Which kinda sucks because that would have been much cheaper :P

It starts at 10. I think it takes just under an hour to get there on the train, and it looks like quite a walk from the station too. So we could get the train at about 8.30?
I'm not sure who else is going either!
Shall I just book the cheapest I can find and then I'll tell you know the time so we can get the same train?
Do you have a young persons rail card?

Yeh I do, I think evelyn and Naomi are going...not sure who else! other than chiu...If you lemme know which you've booked (and yes preferably the cheapest >.>) you could letus know...Naomi said she knows how to get from the station to the uni and that its not as far as it looks...so maybe being on the same train as her might be a good idea >.>"

Here are the details:

Depart 08.30 NEW STREET
Arrive 09.11 CHELTENHAM SPA
Seat A 33A

Depart 18.12 CHELTENHAM SPA
Arrive 18.57 NEW STREET
Seat C 53A

£16.00 with 16-25 railcard

I don't think you can pick your seats but I requested a table seat so we'll see!
Also it's an open return really so we can leave whenever it ends, which according to the website is 5 or 5.30.

Ok,bought the same return ticket so I'm set to go!

Chiu said...

Ok! Me Too! same return ticket for 24 squids, afraid I'm no longer under 25 by a couple of years only :)

Jellysock said...

Are there any tickets left or stuff like that? I'd be interested in going! And where is Cheltenham?

Chiu said...

I can only have six tickets - and as far as I know the following people are going:

Rose K
Jess Watson
Naomi Porter
Evelyn Lindsey

Myself and George
I will check if George still wants to go, if not the offer goes first to Johan, and then Debbie, and then finally you Beckie

sorry, they just wouldn't give me more!

Jellysock said...

That's okay :) Next time I'll just make my mind up sooner

naomi said...

Me and Ev are going by train too, I expect we'll just jump on one and hope for the best.
As for knowing where the event is, I've been to Cheltenham once before so I know VAGUELY the way to the centre of town but I have no idea where the uni is lol!!! So it's google maps for me...

See y'all tuesday x

Chiu said...

jump on the same train and we can all split a taxi together when we get to Cheltenham!!

Jess Watson said...

the taxi sounds like a good idea or else I fear I'll do a Guy and show up just in time to see things ending XP
