David Filsell Posted 18 September , 2012 Share Posted 18 September , 2012 As a Surrey man a safe visit to Edgbaston with no high balls (or High-Balls) would be good, I will however carefully consider the police presence. As ever, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw Posted 18 September , 2012 Share Posted 18 September , 2012 David, I also come up from Surrey. Given the cost of fuel/rail travel nowadays, might we be able to gather together a group from the Home Counties/Surrey? Could also pick-up someone from Heathrow or Gatwick pretty easily (and return them there on the Sunday) I have a seven seater thingee that I could use if required. I appreciate that there will be some who want to come up on Friday PM for the "Old Contemptibles" and perhaps not stay on Saturday night and some that plan to travel on Saturday and stay over. I enjoyed the Friday evening soiree this year and the curry after. Obviously, we could also coordinate the hotel accommodation to ease further the travelling - and release some people to have a beer or two. Any ideas or inquiries gratefully received.
