    I hope to be there about 12-1 ish (if I'm still invited as I've been a bit quiet of late).

    Looking forward to meeting y'all

    Okay, mind made up, I am coming too! Sister cancelled so will just be me. Got the gym til 11am, so will have to get the 12.30pm train to Waverley. Will get there around 1.30pm, who can I PM my mobile number to? Any takers?! Is everyone starting at The Standing Order or meeting elsewhere first? I'm excited now.....

    I see that The Standing Order has WiFi access - would a laptop be of any use??

    Might be a plan for the fancy folk with iPhones and the like. I'm aiming to wear a bright coat and look lost (My coat is purple&green and I wear glasses if that helps anyone) :D

    My laptop is one of the bigscreen jobs for watching movies etc, and is a heavy begger to carry about. If anyone has a wee lappy though that might be a plan!

    That is most definitely not me - I can't even text

    But I do have a wee laptop if you want me to bring it through .... but do you think they'll let me use their electricity after an hour or so??
