Are going to, or at least plan to, attend our conference in Chorley on May 29th?

240 miles, a bit far away for me :P

[elsiegee40]

Too far for me, sorry

Too far north - again

Dos_Box: Can I ask what is planned for this event? Specifics would be great but a general idea would good.

Cheers

It is still in the planning stages. I would like Microsoft to give us an overview of Server 2008 and I may have a specialist talk about how pupils are targeted on line by very nasty types.
I have Apple penciled in too.

You can stay in a hotel for a couple of nights you know. I'm trying to get a discount sorted out.

212 miles from me! Too far I'm afraid. Would have loved to have come along again!

Any reason why it's so far from the previous one in Northampton?

If you book train tickets now you will pay a pittance.

Because lots of people in the north can never make the ones in the south. And I'm organizing it at MY workplace (fully paid for by us of course).

Yes, will be there.

To put this distance into context, it is 2 hours 15 mins from Euston to Preston on Virgin trains. No distance at all.
We will sort out a coach for you to get to the conference from the hotel.

Can't go - too far for me
I do understand why the conferences (note spelling - pedantic cow!) are so far up the country - but to us even Northampton is north. Euston is 2 hours on the train from here!

Wish I could though

Count me in, not missing another meeting...

Is Chorley near Durham? ;-)
