Hi Ames, hope thingsare ok with you :T
I think the plan so far is
Some out of towners are getting in from 2 till 5 on Saturday so some of us will be knocking about the train station
On Sunday, about 8 am outside Travel lodge on Vicar lane, walking up with runners, to the start at
Meet the runners and walkers at the finish line Family area, which from what i can make out is Millenium Square (for those that went to last years L|eeds meet) thats where the pub was:cool:
After that meet again outside Travel lodge on Vicar lane about 12, and go up to Roundhay Park (lakeside cafe) about 1 ish

I'm ok thanks.
It all sounds good, but a bit too much walking for me! If I see you walking past on the way to the start line I'll say hello.
Do you know how you'll be getting to Roundhay park? I'll have to have a look at bus times, I wont be able to walk it.
When you say hanging about the train station do you mean the pub? If so I'll happily join you there!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Yes on the bus to Roundhay on Sunday
I think Saturday is going to mostly spent (by me) walking from Station to hotels and back:oPROUD TO BE DEALING WITH MY DEBT NERD #869
