Hypnorm it would be great if you can come, even if you don't talk to anyone outside the forum yet, there's lots of people in the same boat and I'm sure you'll make some new friends!
Hels Are you still bringing your SS? I'm just wondering if I'm bringing Mason or not cos I had organised my mom to have him.
Jo, what station would you be leaving from? I'll have a look and see if I can find a better route for you....it's easier if you can come into Birmingham New Street, then it's 10 mins on the bus, but if you arrive at another station we can work something out I'm sure
I think everyone who is arriving on the train should say now, then perhaps you could organise meeting at the station first...it's up to you though obviously!
Anyone who would like my number, feel free to pm!

Right so it's 2 hours 21 mins if you change at Leeds...would that be OK?
Hopefully we can hook you up with meeting someone at New Street so you can get the last bus with them?
I did look into getting a min-bus taxi from New Street but I figured people would feel safer with their babies on a bus cos of no car seats.

Right, i have found that if i get direct from Leeds there is no change, and is just under 2 hours, i have never been on a train with a buggy b4, is there a place to park it with Jack in or do i have to fold down and have him on me knee???
Looking like i could be there girls just need to see cost now, might have to bring Emily

I used to take Lydia on the train all the time to visit MIL (she lives just past wakefield)...in the days before I had a car lol.
Usually, at either end of the train, there are places for prams and wheelchairs, so you don't have to fold up the pram.
Actually, now that I think about it, I've never had to fold up a pram.
Mind you, those were Arriva trains, not the GNER ones, so it might be different if you're going on a big intercity train. But I'm sure they'll be pram spaces, because they've got to have wheelchair space.
