We are having a meet at Que Bridge this sunday (had a look on google street and it looks good by the river) so all are welcome

Usual times 12 ish until you are sick of it (I normally leave at 2-30)

One probem with your theory its £10 there and then another £10 back :p and if you read it carefully it doesnt book you a seat it only give you a possition on the train so you will have to scavenge a seat. so all in all its not that good.

There is loads of other websites doing the same thing cheaper, if i booked now i could get a return to london for next week for £15, so it can be cheaper in other places :)

Think the word is "OWNED" Q  :Claugh:

Yep it's Kew bridge but I was tired and it didn't look right but couldn't figure out why  :Cbiggrin:

Think I'll leave it as is cause it's quite funny and hopefully ET will see it and have a dig  :Claugh:

You are welcome to come Q but it might be a short meet for such a long journey as I will have to leave with Clive at 3 ish but would love to see you

It's actually a day return. So Just tenner, not £20. Also, I don't know what trains are like near you but the only time I ever get seats allocated is when I book wayyy in advanced down to london. Can't be that bad can it ???

Ok guys this is where it is

http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=kew+bridge&countryCode=GB

Or if the link won't work type Kew Bridge into Multimap

nearest tube is Gunnersbury

nearest railway is Kew Bridge

Should be there from about 12 but feel free to turn up earlier

As I said this meet is a tester to see what the area is like as a few bits looked good on street view and it is near to a new guy who may be joining us

Well that was fun  :Cbiggrin:

Only Clive , Hollie and me turned up in the end (hope the phone line went well DG  :Cbiggrin: )

There is a lot of places to bock there and loads of steps that are just the right size
A ramp by the bridge is ideal to learn on and there is a small park with an ideal runway to learn to flip (if you don't mind a grass landing)

Hollie managed to jump off her first step and had a go at a three step drop and made it  :Cbiggrin:
Clive was matching me drop  for drop (just like a couple of kids  :Claugh:) and some of them were big for us  :Cbiggrin:

Really good day and will be doing it again soon  :Cbiggrin:

well in the end we've gotta pay £120 between us to get it made back into a bt line, and there ahs to be someone home for the next few days incase a technician comes round, so i'm practically housebound

though it's still cheaper (and better) than renewing the virgin contract form last year and having horribly throttled internet
