Actually, let me take that back. Sae, there's no courses on the 24-25th, so I 'll prolly not be able to make it over there that weekend. >_<

*runs around in distress*

*goes to check Ryanair and other prices*

Anyone know how much the train from Standted to London costs?

(Edit: I spaketh too soon! I can fly out, arrive at London Stansted at 7AM or 13:40. Train to central London is about 20 minutes. I'd prefer to take the 7AM flight so we'll have some time to actually talk and walk around and shop and stuff. If I take the 11:40 home the next day, it'll save me €10, which is always a Good Thing. Since I won't need a hotel or anything (Sae, do you think I could get changed and/or leave my bumph in your hotel while we go a-Slimelighting?), total costs of travelling will be around €50. *cringe* Mmmmkay, can do this. Add about €25-30 for food, Slimelight and general shopping, and that's a week's budget right there. Must. Start. Saving! But I can at least probably make it.)

Mou. *cries*

(We're going to take the train from Stansted to London tomorrow, but I don't actually know how much it is. I can tell you after the weekend.)

Ta. Actually, it looks like it might be feasable. Watch this space. (Or rather, watch this entry!)

Considering the journey lasts about 45 minutes, and the train from Canterbury to Nodnol lasts an hour and a half, I'd guess about Considering the journey lasts about 45 minutes, and the train from Canterbury to Nodnol lasts an hour and a half, I'd guess about £10 or £12, return. (Twould be tres cool if you could make it.)

(Are we talking Saturday?)

Getting changed and leaving bumph in hotel: not a problem. I assume that if we're going Slimelighting (eee!), finding a place to sleep really won't matter, but if for some reason it should become necessary, you could probably crash for a night, too.

Saturday, yes. Sine Slimelight is on Saturday evening, Zed and I usually meet on Saturday, go to Slimelight in the evening, and then split on Sunday morning. :)

I'm looking into cheapest and easiest options to get there, but by jove, get there I will!

Re:

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Er. "By jove"? What the hell am I on? o_O

Thoughts of going to Britain are turning you more British than even you want to be.

Eee! Does this mean I get to be responsible for taking *three* people's Slimelight virginities? Now that just rocks!

[sivan.livejournal.com]

See? So much for the cherries. *runs around mindlessly and straight into the nearest wall*

(Three? Who's the third?)

Re:

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

*blink* Cherries? (Apart from the obvious, I mean. And what does it say about me that to me, "the obvious" meaning of cherries is losing one's virginity?)

[sivan.livejournal.com]

I was referring to the obvious, actually. The quotes Zed posted in her journal -- she's taking cherries left and right.

(And. Um. Whatever it says about you, I'm afraid it'll apply to me as well.)

[pelicanzed.livejournal.com]

(Me too. Fruit just isn't innocent these days. Bananas. Peaches. The word fruity itself. Dodginess abounds.)

(And don't forget the lemons!)

Re:

[pelicanzed.livejournal.com]

Mmm, cherry goodness everywhere! I feel like Pacman! Apart from the fact that he's yellow, and I'm, well, not. (On the grounds that this may cause further confusion, in the version I spent most of my life playing - Snapper - you got different fruit on each level, but cherries were the most traditional.)

It's not really the Britishness I mind, it's the Old Personness of it all. Good grief. (I am not Charlie Brown!)

Ah, well, you're twenty one now. Ancient! (*am v. glad 22-and-very-bitter-about-it Bryn is at a computer on the other side of the room*) You already talk about The Good Old Days. Soon you'll start ripping knitting patterns out of magazines in waiting rooms, since you're too cheap to buy them yourself. Just remember: fishnets good, hairnets bad.

q! :D

Re:

[pelicanzed.livejournal.com]

Ooh. I feel highly q!ed today. Mostly thanks to myself, but hey.

[sivan.livejournal.com]

Jove?

Re:

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Please pick any of the below possibilities:
a) you are wondering what I mean by "[by] jove";
b) you are implying I am "on" jove;
c) all of the above;
d) none of the above.

If a): "By Jove" -- quite possibly the most British expression of all times. Meaning: "by god".

If b): Well, :p

If c) or d), please elaborate.

Thank you for playing.

You are on Jupiter? Keweliez! What's it like? I might join you, since the computer room is far too hot. I was watching "2001: A Space Odyssey" half an hour ago, and I didn't see you. I'll have to watch it again sometime and look more closely.

*sings* Now that she's back in the atmosphere with drops of Jupiter in her hair ...
