For those of you who prefer directions:
From Railway Station to Coopers Tavern:
Stand with your back to the station, turn right down Station Road, past The Roebuck/Burton Ale House (same pub, two names)
Past large pub on coner of Station Road/Milton Street (The Devonshire), down Milton Street, you will now see a sign for the Coopers, go down the alley, the first door is the gents, second door the ladies, third door the bar. You will note that you haven't gone down Cross Street, that's because you've come in the back door of the pub.

Derby Turn (if anyone's coming later)
From railway station: Go left down Station Street and turn left onto Derby Street, proceed past the Bell and Brewer, past The Alfred, (Derby Street becomes Derby Road at this point) down to the Derby Turn Roundabout, cross Horninglow Road and The Derby Turn is straight in front of you. Go in the front door then turn immediately right through into the children's room, then straight on to the back room (there'll be a sign on this door saying 'h2g2 Researchers only', or something like that.
If you're driving:
Turn off the A38 at the Burton north exit (don't take Burton South, as you;ll end up having to bugger about through the centre of Burton, and no-one want to do that).
The Burton north exit brings you out onto Derby Road, go over the first two roundabouts, and the Derby Turn is the third roundabout. For fxck's sake *don't* stop too early and go into the Derby Inn, as it's a complete shxte hole full of old men and Formica tables .
