    If you can get a train to Oxford Street Station in Manchester, go for it, although it'll probably be Manchester Piccadilly station where you will get off the train.

    Hi Manchester folk. when I get the train on Friday night, which station should I get off at? What is the name of the station?

    Thanks

    Ryan

    Oxford road station is about a 20 min walk from my place but I don't think any London trains will stop there, in which case you'll want Piccadilly station in the centre of town.

    It's handy though as Piccadilly is just round the corner from the local arcade and right near all the buses and taxis you could ever need.

    Friday 23rd September

    Meet Ryan at Piccadilly Train Station
    Hotfoot it to Piccadilly Amusement's (Jenny's)
    Line up the 50p's for Tekken Tag /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif
    Slowly lose the will to live as Ryan pummel's me and a few other's into the dirt on Tekken (BTW The stick's in Jenny's are actually quite good! /versus/images/graemlins/blush.gif)
    Show Ryan round Manchester? (I'm assuming you'll want to see the sight's, or Mcdonald's and KFC as we call them! LOL /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
    Head back back to Chris's for round the clock VF.
    I advise bringing the obvious sleeping bag/joystick combination. I will obviously be sporting the Stella/Fosters/Jack Daniel's/Subway footlong combination! /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif /versus/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

    I envision the tourney finishing by around 3.30 at the latest but we'l continue to play after that...

    Most travelling folks tend to set off around 5/5.30 in order to make 6ish trains home.

    7-8 on the friday night sounds good.
     
  12. SlimTYME

    SlimTYME Well-Known Member

    It will probably end by 5/6pm, on the Saturday booking a return train about 7/8 ish would be good idea.

    Hi guys!
    Howz things! This seems to be a pretty good turnout. Sorry to bring this up, but did we come a conclusion about the shoulder buttons on the control pads?

    LOL

    Yeah, seen as though Maz will be the only person using them and some people said they weren't that bothered, he can use bindings.

    Kingsouther
    Stalwart Samurai


    GROUP B

    Jide
    Akairyu_Medion

    Darius
    Ironmike
    _Optimus_


    GROUP D

    Of course we also have 4 on the bench as it were;

    LM_Akira


    Also we may have to slightly alter the HSF placings a little if G_Ho can't make it (tho we do have another SF player interested I hear) but this is how things stand atm.

    Your Credit Card **** **** **** 4003 has been charged GBP 37.00

    Outward Journey: Friday, 24/09/2004
    departs LONDON EUSTON at 12:00 travel by Train service provider VIRGIN
    TRAINS to station MANCHESTER PICCADILLY arrives 14:37

    Outward Journey: Sunday, 26/09/2004
    departs MANCHESTER PICCADILLY at 18:32 travel by Train service provider
    VIRGIN TRAINS to station LONDON EUSTON arrives 23:02

    I've booked and paid, but it was a bit more expensive than I expected. I was only going to buy my tickets in few days time and I didn't realise how quickly the cheap tickets sell-out.

    Anyways, the ticket schedule I have was still avilable this morning, so if you don't mind staying an extra night it's not too harsh on the wallet. There were no more cheap tickets back on the Saturday night when I looked and I was even considering coming up on the Thursday. The coach is about 30 squid, but the journey's 5-6 hours (twice as long as the train).
