A noise beginning with K?
K-A-R-A-O-K-E :eek:

Oh I LOVE karaoke. If I knew how to edit video on my computer, I would upload a hilarious video of some girls-night-out karaoke from a few weeks ago.
But I don't.

I hate clubs too, crap music, crowded, expensive warm beer, teenagers throwing up their pop... no no no.
Karaoke, well, I once worked in this club where we had to do bandioke for 3 hours straight. A big book with 1000 or so tunes, people pick a tune and us poor musos have to back up their wailing, oh god that brings back painful memories *shudder*
Anyway, I know brum pretty well, my ex ex lives there, we're still really good mates so I've already asked to catch up for a coffee while I'm up there. The glee club is good, but I don't mind what we all do really.:A

But you live in the south - warm beer is part of the heritage...Karaoke, well, I once worked in this club where we had to do bandioke for 3 hours straight.

That sounds a good idea! You can accompany me. I'll "sing" very quietly, while you bang very hard.
No, no...the drums..."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

I also live in the South, Z, and yes, warm beer may often be all that is on offer, but as for being part of our 'heritage' it's a bit like saying that 'gruel' is part of the heritage of the working man - there may be a smidgeon of truth in it, but it's something we're working hard to shake off.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

Hi
I've found an Etap hotel (1 Great Gilmore Street, Birmingham, B15 2AP) that sleeps 2 or 3 for £38 per room. Breakfast is £2.95 extra per person. (prices include tax).
I have a friend who stayed in one and she said that they're basic - no frills but perfect when you just want a place to kip!
I'll post details of any other hotels etc I find!

www.flybe.com starting flights between Birmingham and Newquay from 1st Arpil 2008. Only a summer timetable, but if anyone fancies a break in Cornwall next year, its well worth the 45 minute flight.
A LOT better than 6 hours on the train, or 6+ hours by road.
