I will be sober.
I will remember all of the weekend.
I will not be available for roshambo lessons.
I will not put stupid answers on the quiz. Easy trophies, innit?
(It must be, I have one already!)
I will not be up for the football.
I will not have gone to bed by 10am. Breakfast, then bed, ldo.
I will not be singing.
Seriously though, I might not be there. And this also applies to Joobs. Sorry guys, but our darling landlord decided she didn't want a lodger any more, and gave us notice today. So we are probably going to need our money to pay deposits/rent etc. Happy birthday to me (well, in a week).

Train fares:
http://www.eastcoast.co.uk
- £25 return so far from London...if people get confused, PM me and ill see what I can find.
Hotels: See Claw's post. Travelodge Riverside is £150 for 3 nights if you book 3 separate nights through their £19 promo. Will post others I find.
Driving: If you have a drivers licence but no car/insurance and fancy it,
http://www.enterprise.co.uk
have a weekend deal where you hire a car from Fri to Mon and get it pretty cheap - £35 for the smallest car for 3 days plus if you want it Thursday to Tuesday, they take a little bit more off the standard rate. All they do for cover is take £200 off you which gets refunded when you return the car provided there's no damage.
Flying: Obv airport is EMA.

As I understand it Friday is the pre blonde bash drinking session and there is sufficient time to drinky drinky that nobody is inhibited in the having of a good time by any lack of intoxication. You want to have some pre pre drinks? Are you sure this is a good idea?
Aee you really envisaging a scenario where you are gigging it up in some Nottingham nightclub in the early hours of Saturday morning rueing your relative sobriety and cursing all the gods of the parthenon that you didn't have half a bottle of gin before you got on the train?

I'm always inhibited by lack of intoxication. But there's no such thing as pre pre drinks...its an all day session.

may I refer you to the link I posted earlier (possibly in another thread, cba to look) reporting on the last pre bash friday in nottingham
I believe the first paragraph (again cba to check) refers to pre drink drinks and that ended in a somewhat marv weekend so nerrrr
