Meet me by the station!!!
Bluebottle Started conversation May 8, 2002
If you want to be met at the station, let me know here before Friday morning, and I'll do my best to meet you.
Let me know who you are, what you look like, what time, roughly, your train will be arriving, where from and what train company you'll be travelling with.
Look out for a scruffy bloke with longish hair, a blue fleece, a h2g2 T-shirt, a ZZ9 Plurual Z Alpha badge eating a Cornish pasty.

Bluebottle Posted May 8, 2002
Yes - but in past h2g2 meet-ups, I've thought I've known what someone looks like, only for them to lose weight, grow a beard, have a drastic haircut and change hair colour, and in consequence, I've not recognised them. I'm not very good at that sort of thing...
But if you wear your Triffid shirt, I'd recognise you anywhere.

And what time will you be arriving, and will it be Thames Trains after changing at Basingstoke, or perhaps Virgin?

I "think" they'll be on the same train...
I'll send Peregrin along to the station as well... How anyone "couldn't" reckognise HIM would surprise me....

I was speaking in fake slavic. It actually meant that you /have/ seen me before.
It'll be a Virgin train arriving at 12.46.

Ming Mang Posted May 8, 2002
Me and my mum will be arriving by car at some point, hopefull around 1-ish, so we'll wander in if you're going to be there still..?

Ming Mang Posted May 8, 2002
Cool!
In which case, I have longish average-brown hair, will be wearing a t-shirt, probably dark coloured, black jeans, be wearing glasses, and rather on the short side. My mum is shorter than me, and has short curly dark hair. And I'll probably have a rucksack on.

Good grief, this is this weekend already isn't it? Well, myself and Toccata will be arriving by train. I haven't checked the information out yet but will post when I do. I shall be easily recognisable as I shall wear a hat. Quite possibly my Panama depending on the weather. However there is a photo on my page and various others linked to from there so you shouldn't have a problem. Off to check the train times now.

Looks like the 12:46 Virgin Trains arrival. Don't like the look of the train home though, may have to spend an hour in Basingstoke
Meet me by the station!!!
Munchkin Posted May 9, 2002
I change on to that train at Basingstoke. I do have an anal habit of being early though, so I might not be on that one.

Pastey Posted May 9, 2002
Munchkin!!!! Darling!!!!!!!! You coming along to this one??!!?!?
In that case, sod the car! I'll be getting a train and a hangover.
Meet me by the station!!!
Pastey Posted May 9, 2002
Just checked the train times, and it looks like I could be arriving at any point during the morning/lunchtime. All depends on how work goes that morning. So, if I'm on time I'll be at the station, if I'm early I'll be in the 'goblin.
Meet me by the station!!!
Munchkin Posted May 9, 2002
I feel my part is being built up too much. That and I could do without the grief from your wife again.
Key: Complain about this post
