I have a HDD-Based PS2 with has the C64 Emulator on it (and Katamari, etc..), and a nice PC 22" Widescreen TFT (Samsung 226BW) with a Gadmei TV convertor box (TV5821 - http://www.gadmei.com/new3/ProductShow. ... icleID=154) for TV/Phono input (Widescreen PS2). Would there be room or any use for me to bring these bits along to RV?

Yes, I am arriving on Friday and now staying at the Sports View Guesthouse - I could not bring myself to keeping the room at the nanford, even though thats where I know the after-party will be happening. I am leaving sometime on Sunday. Is there somewhere to park near the pub for loading/unloading of equipment? It would be easier than trying to get it all in a taxi to bring there, or walking it round from there (too heavy - The monitor weighs a fair bit, even though it is TFT).

Thanks,
Steve.

Is there anyone who is going for the day on the Friday (And returning home in the evening) who is going from South of oxford up A34 ?

I live 15 miles or so away from oxford just off the A34 (Didcot), and although am getting a train in Friday morning, the last one back is quite early that evening and a lift would be great! (Otherwise it's a £30 taxi)

If no luck with a lift mate I'm sure we can organise a whipround to help cover that.... no probs ...

I know Didcot well - The Broadway Spice in Didcot is possibly my favorite Indian take away in England.

I used to work for RM (Research Machines) in the business park there/Abingdon.

You can pull up outside the pub ... run in and grab us ... we'll help you unload.

Although the Sports View is a little way off it's smashing ... run by some really nice folk. Clean and tide place!

That kind thanks. - but I would feel bad spending peoples beer money. £30 isn't much when you split it over AN ENTIRE WEEKEND of gaming! :D I can justify it!

there's a huge piece of pavement right outside if you don't mind mounting the kerb and knocking over some pedestrians and some cyclists if you're lucky.
