yay, you had a nightmare jourmey last time guys x

 

[Flutterby]

Yeah I know, but I'm not paying the nearly £90 train ticket when fuel is nowhere near that price in our car lol!

 

[Flutterby]

I may look at train tickets closer the time, for cheaper ones.

I agree - driving in Birmingham is hell .

I suggest anyone planning to drive checks with the pub about parking arrangements.

This pub is so close to New Street Station ( and the Bullring Shopping Centre) - it'll be less stressful coming by train if you can get a reasonably priced ticket

 

[Flutterby]

Definitely a good idea!

Is the walk from new street to the pub a long walk? I can't walk far.. It says 6 minuet walk on google? Anyone know if that's true?!?

Sorry to hear this Steve, we'll do another one soon.

I will be thinking of you all as I enjoy my mega 2 pint glass of beer in the stands. All I want is a try in the corner right in front of me like last time.

It is around that to be honest - straight out station turn left, cross a big road and you are nearly there

I know I've not been around the forum much recently (keep trying to get back to it but very busy with uni work these days) but I'd love to come along if I can make it. Managed 3 meets last year and they were definitely the highlights of the year! Thankfully this meet is the week after my dissertation is due so it just depends on how well I'm doing with the rest of my coursework by then. I will confirm once I've bought my train tickets but won't be able to guarantee my attendance until much closer to the time once I know if I can afford the time off studying!
