London SMNC Meetup

Let's all go and get drunk together some time between the third and seventh of October.

Do you pay for plane tickets as well?

Haha, no. This is more targeted at people in the UK who can just get a train down for a day.

I would if I lived there. That's worth....something

Aaah, but trains down to London are SO long and expensive. No chance of it being more centralised UK?

0/10, worst excuse ever. You don't even have to cross any water.

how much do you have to spend to get there?

My plane and train tickets cost me just over £100($150). Though I am going to see a friend - I'm not just coming over for a SMNC meetup.

I'm also a poor student, and trains are bloody espensive.
£104 each way from Dundee to Kings Cross - and that's arriving at 1am, and that's not factoring the return trip, and accommodation.

heh, if it cost me that much I wouldn't go either.

Damn, why are planes so much cheaper than a train?

that's more or less true in the US too. You take a train from one coast to the other, it takes several days, and is around the same price.

But still - £100 each way?

I can get a return ticket to Dublin(100 miles away) for £10.

Don't worry Jammy. Your boy Chris will be there.

how? you're not even allowed to cross the street. BAM

Edit: Really? My first like comes from me posting a gif?

Clearly I need to post more...

Can I jet ski across the Channel?
