Some people have no dedication! :P

IIRC you can fly Luton to Blackpool - I may be able to squeeze someone else in the car.


My turn to drive I belive.

@norphy: I will be travelling up from Kettering, just up the road from you, if you want to car share. I will be going up the night before.

If there is anyone else who wants to car share from round the Northampton area please let me know.

Heheh. I can beat that. It's about eight or nine hours to Manchester from where I live by car, even longer by train & far too expensive by air. Guess I won't be getting to the Northern conference either.

Admittedly, I won't even be working at a school by that time anyway, but that's beside the point... :P
