Kirsty, Can't you drive us down there? Splitting petrol money is far cheaper xD

£30-40 petrol there and back. Then £12 parking each day.. (£12 is the cheapest parking you can find).

The highest estimate is £80... That's the cost to travel two people and I'm sure the car has room for four so that's about half the price.

A bargain, when you think about it.

I'd drivesome people down but I dont facy driving that far, then having to pa to drive in london etc.

Hmmm I'd like to go to an expo at some point with the club but my parents are overprotective and will probably say no T_T

Plus I have no idea how I'd get there, who I'd share a room with (which I would have to being under 16 and everything) and how I would get moneys to go.

Any suggestions for any of those would be fantastic.

How about kirsty and laura split the driving, and isnt parking at the hotel free?

If you're talking about the travel inn thats like, opposite the ExCeL centre then the parking costs I think, can't remember how much though.

lolololol I'll only be a driving n00b aswell...
scarp the driving from me, I cant get my car insured til early November anyway (just found out)

We'll see how much the tickets are when they come out.. But yeah.. you have to pay £12 to park at that Travelodge because people used to abuse it.. people who are using the airport.

1. Tell your parents how reliable I am

2. Get the train with all of us OR in the car (However it happens..)

3. You're under 16 so we can fit you in anywhere (cause you're classed as a child) that and Georgia is hoping to go, isn't she?

4. Self yourself. Lmao xp I'm joking xp!! Suggest a certain teacher accompanies the trip? xp Seriously speaking though, it's expensive because you need money for food and buying stuff etc.. so it does rack up..

Remember there is always May's expo too!

I said, "yep, what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change."

I probably wouldn't be able to do May though because I'll have like, just left year 11 so it'd be GAH EXAMS etc.

I might get some money for my birthday though but I'm probably going to have to weigh up the pros and cons of October Vs. May and see what happens.

I'll make an assumption that the May expo will fall on a weekend?

Yep, it's on a weekend! And you can check when your exams are in November, I think it is, when you exam timetables are released!

I did say I didn't want to be reasonsible for under 16s >_< Just because of how May turned out.. I don't want to lead too many people astray D= Nah, but who would have thought a bunch of 18/19 year olds would be so much work?! x_x I'm half-joking xp;; *huggles all those went in May* I enjoyed having your fates in the palm of my hand

Taya says: The thing is people keep on forgetting how old you actually are, and because you were organising it so well everyone was just relying on you. Most of us who relied on you were older than you XD

Kirsty, Robert can't take me and Daniel in October now because he can't really
afford it because he's just moved house,
but I think that I will be able to go in October, and was wondering if I could
go with you guys?????? (as I have no knowledge of trains, london etc etc.....)

Get the bus. Book in advanced and its around 32 quid return over the 4 days from Grimsby to somewhere in London. I say over the 4 days since it is 6 hours on a friggin' bus. I have traveled by epic long bus of doom before, and I can tell you its every bit as bad as you might think it could be. And then worst.
