I think we need to wait and see what the list totals by say Thurs / Fri and make a decision then...
Perhaps it might be better for people to post if they can make it on 28 March too. That way, by Friday, we should know which day will have the higher number of participants, and can decide then.

Of course, seeing as I am not able to make 28 March, I am not so keen on what I've just said :).

I didn't see greatkingrat's post before adding my name onto the list (for 21 March). Let me correct that:

jbom1 (probably + Zoe)

I wouldn't be able to make a 28 March one either...

(No matter what happens btw I'm in London on Saturday so even if the R15 does get shifted if anybody wants to meet up ;) )
Attempts: 2 (17h38m, 238 stations) (unknown, 200 stations); Completions: 0; GWR: 0; PBs: 0.

I don't think we have agreed a time or know the starting station yet but we normally aim to start at around 1pm from memory :?:

In that case it would be a bit to tight for me to make it, I would need to be back at Hatton X, or Feltham at 4/4:30pm! :?

1pm start has the advantage of being late enough to allow a civilised start time for us non-Londoners, whilst early enough to permit copious drinking afterwards... :D :D :D

If you go with them I can make it to the start and wave you all off before you get on your way. Depending on whether you go with Saturday or not...
I would say that we have enough now to proceed with this Saturday, which seems fair as this was the date agreed..... Matt could you do the honour's and post the starting station for a 12:45 meet to begin by 13:00hrs.... Are you going to wait for us to finish and come to the pub afterwards :?:
