mythicFOX Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I've pinned this so no one can say they missed it. Already a little over excited about this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seregon Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Assuming Manchester is the closest major airport, how troublesome is it to get to York from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythicFOX Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 From Manchester you'd be able to get a train direct to York in about 1hr 40min. It's then a quick cab ride to the venue. Leeds Bradford airport is closer to York but is smaller and has no direct rail link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tapdancer Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I live a mile from Leeds-Bradford and would be happy to help out with transport to York / back to the airport assuming travel schedules can be synchronised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clousseau Posted December 25, 2014 Report Share Posted December 25, 2014 WOOT! Where are the best hotels (read cheapest) in the vesinity?There are 3 or 4 Premier Inns, and some guys stayed at local independant places. Depends on the best deal on the day you book.

Captain Sparks Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 Here's hoping I can actually get a ticket after last year's timing & Internet connection problems.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJudge Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 I am up for this for sure. Will book a hotel room that can be cancelled just in case I don't get a ticket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seregon Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Any tips on nearby hotels or b&b's within walking distance, or possibly ones that are only a short busride away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrManson Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 One interested Swede here, that has pre-booked a room a bit South on Haxby road. That should be just a short bus drive away, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurreyLee Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Any news on when tickets are going to be released and how you can apply for them.

Tigerstyle Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 It's not been decided yet, but it's unlikely to be for another couple of months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManMyke Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Tickets for this event will go on sale on Saturday 28th March. There will be 80 tickets initially available and they will cost £40 per ticket. As per 2014 this will include food on Saturday and Sunday along with the hall being available to us on the Saturday night for drinking and free gaming. The event will be a 7 round tournament due to the numbers so make sure you are ready for the long haul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 any idea what time of day on that Saturday? I'm at an event and don't want to miss out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManMyke Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I realise its Haul of Eggs that day but whenever I pick a date there will be someone saying 'oh thats so and so' I will put them up probably at 9pm which should give folks a chance to get back from Haul of Eggs but before the younger members of our tribe go out on the Saturday evening drinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
