Count me in. If you drive I'll give petrol money. We could make a night of it. Chris Teague knows of some cheap hotels near the venue. |

If I do go, I was thinking of getting the train down and staying overnight. Yep, Teague goes to a lot of these, so I was going to ask him for details of a half-decent hotel.
I'll look into it and get back to you guys... |
