please not france, it makes things complicated without a passport.
Go to Scotland, It would take me 5 hours on the train, I'd have to get a train to crew and then one the glasgo. so nothing worse then the Alton trip. the cost maybe an issue but I'll look into that and see if I could go.

Passports aren't to hard to get, and European travel is dead easy nowadays. I'm in favour of Eurodisney myself
Of course, an Alton Towers meet will be needed as well, as I don't expect all meet enthusiasts will be able to afford a Eurodisney trip. Otherwise I'd be campaigning for a h2g2 ski trip as well

Ooh... I want to go skiing too!
Well, given those who have expressed an interest in Euro Disney so far Tink, we have a group of at least 9. We'll need to consider when is the best time of year to go (avoid major holidays but want some sunshine), how to get there (make our own way or go by coach/train as a group) and where to stay (Eurocamp may be a good bet as they supply everything). Someone will put a page together for Euro Disney in due course.
Anyway, thanks to everyone who came along. It was a great weekend, and I'm sure it will happen again. (ooh... American Adventure!) 'Air' was just the most fantastic experience.

Air was really good. nemesis is still the daddy, though.

I didn't get on Nemesis this time.
Had a lot of fun though... although I blame Tink entirely for me getting soaked on the log flume.
