Will it be just the DLR added on, or would it be DLR + something else?

I think the DLR is enough on its own - no need to make it too complicated. I like the idea of starting at Stratford International and opening the envelopes when the doors close though.

I agree. Gives you a little time to plan before you get to Stratford where there's plenty of options.

I think we decided zone 1 would be round 5 and Tube Olympics would be round 6?

So only one more to schedule in, presumably sometime in March.

Saturday 19th would probably be a good date; Sports Relief is that weekend!

There does seem to be quite a large amount of closures on that day though. Big blockade east of King's Cross/Tower Hill + no Circle Line!

Due to 2016 being a Tube Olympics year, round 6 of the Random 15 Championship will be pushed back to July (to be part of Tube Olympics).

Therefore the usual end of May Random 15 will be round 5 instead, which is always held within the half term week, my calendar says the Whitsun BH is Monday 30th May- so that settles the Zone 1 as 3rd June 2016 (and R15 4th June 2016).

Round 4 will be held in March 2016, it will NOT be the 26th (as that is Easter Saturday). Exact date to follow, hold your horses.

I've just noticed that the original post gives the January date as 10th - I presume it should be 9th as 10th is a Sunday?

I really must come along to the Third Round before A Levels take over my life (again).

No thread on this yet Tangy?
