Right, folks, this is my last time logged on before the meeting - I'm off to the pub for my tea, then stepping on a train directly thereafter...
Have a safe journey, all, and I'll see you there!
(Unless you use this once-in-a-forumtime opportunity to change all the plans after I've left... I've got a note of LiS's number in case of problems. )

I'd just like to point out that according to my researches, there are 13 of us coming. I don't want to attribute undue significance to that number, however...
We can expect (in order of forum appearance:
DR E VIBENSTEIN
ST FASHION CAT
ARCHANGEL TWEETIE
DEMON DRAWER
PEET
LOST IN SCOTLAND
BABEL 17
SPINY
UNDERGROUND CAROLINE
THISTLE
CRESCENT
KANDYMAN
BARTON FINK
And may God have mercy on our souls.
See you all tomorrow.

13 is very appropraite after all it is the Editors U who will probably still be partying away when we meet up.
BTW on your way look out for a poster for Artist's Model, it's part of the festival. The poster is black with Razor blades on it. I'll explain why later.

Fear not - Joanna and Helena are also coming, although they haven't bothered to sign up here like they're supposed to... anyway, that makes a far less ominous 15, if I'm not mistaken.

14 actually- Thistle can't make it
Unless she's pulling a fast one on me.
Anyway, I reckon it'll be around 4 when I show up. Could we please bear in mind that I'm 16, with highly overprotective parents, and stay around Princes Street Gardens until I show up. I have LiS's moblie number in case, but still...

I may have missed something, but where are you all going to be in the gardens exactly (it's a pretty big place)? How are we going to recognise each other? Just a thought
