Count me in! Just booked into the Whitehouse View (they had a cancellation).

I'm up for the roast and probably the curry too (will PayPal you the roast money later tonight Markie if I remember)

Do you need me to bring the Xbox 360 or do we have enough tech already?

Is this thing limited in numbers? I realise now that my name is listed and I'd forgotten it was up there. Something else has intervened and I forgot to check the dates, so I won't be there :-(

And I mean to say this, It annoys the hell out of me that I'm not going, because Mark is a proper gent.

Fucking wank, Bane lad.

Can you reschedule your train to coincide with a non-strikey time?

Pisser if you canna make it - would be good to see you again.

Been checking the Park & Ride site and according to this page:

http://www.oxfordbus.co.uk/main.php?page_id=62
(bottom of the map, opposite stop P1)

the buses don't stop near the pub on Saturdays between 09:30 and 18:00. :?

If you're at Redbridge, you can get the X3 or X13, they should stop there every 10-15 minutes during the day on the Saturday, and do stop right outside the pub.

My point was that on that link for the Redbridge service the map says it doesn't stop there on Saturdays:

Or is that not the stop near the pub?

That's not the stop near the pub, it's the stop after the stop outside the pub. However none of the Park and Ride buses stop at the stop outside the pub, they go direct from the P+R to the city centre. If you want to avoid a walk from the city centre, get the X3 or X13.

So anyone using the P&R service needs to get the bus from the car park into the city centre, then the X3 or X13 to the pub?
