I am ok with all of the dates, so I best not vote as given a minimum of two, might sway it unfairly. So I look forward to our annual meetup and seeing everyone one year older ;)

Checking train fares and the cheapest I can get at the moment is £67 return for 2 adults. Travelling down on the last train on Friday night and coming home on the last train Saturday night(7.08pm). We can get into the travelodge for £36.

Total = £103
