Hi all,

Right first off sorry to hear you wont be there Arron will miss you there but i'm sure you will be having a cracking time up north.

After the recce of Oxford last weekend I can say I am happy with the hotel it is a fair way outside of Oxford but is only £9 in a taxi for 4 people to share so not to expensive the rooms are clean and comfortable with good showers friendly staff a good bar to chill in on arrival, and I have decided on an American diner restaurant for dinner Maxwells bar and grill they do not have a website but the food I found to be very good service was good and a starter and main course with a couple of drinks was £25 with tip so not bad and there is a selection of night clubs to choose from the one I went to was the Lava Lounge which had three rooms with a varied mix of music RNB current and then classic proclamers and the like

Hotel info and map via link http://www.premierinn.com/en/hotel/OXFLON/oxford there are still rooms they are now £77 a room so if you have not already done so book up while you can.

Anyone I have not highlited as booked on the list of attendees please let me know and I will amend I need to book the table by the end of next week so need a firm Number by Thursday week.

Nice 1 Steve

Will get Ian to add you to the numbers - Always a great way to meet everyone before the off, and yes we all talk about Severe Weather as well as getting lashed and eating lovely food! You cant miss us on the 3rd just look out for a Bruce Forsythe Look-Alike and we will probably be propping up the bar when we all meet tp go out.

Sorry to hear you cant make it Claire, although that Cameron is a spooky one as he said that you will drop out, his other prediction was Jo to drop out to -to which I said "No Way" Lets see if Mystic Meg can strike again!

Still going to be great numbers +20 to +25 people which when you compare that to Manchester a few years ago and Cardiff last year shows just how popular these events are.

Storm Chase BBQ Will also be talked about and hopefully we can sort out a venue and a date for Summer 2012!
