As said, there more the merrier and we will toast daunted as the founder member of the Lancashire meet.

its the preston or blackpool or glasgow or barrow train. Basically anything going north will go through horwich parkway which is the stadium station and is yards away.

or vice verasa if you are coming from de-preston

sorry, could help it as im a prestonian as of birth!!

glad to see quite a few newbies too as the older ones are off this year mainly.

All should go quiet now until a few days before so dont panic everyone.
There are always a few drop outs and last minute newbies so hold tight.

Hi, I know this has nothing to do with meeting up but when you all sent your visa application off did you receive any emails or phone call to say they had received it???? i'm worried as we sent it Feb 2nd and not heard if they've received it. i don't know if I could take it if it's got lost!! If you did receive notification that they'd received it how soon after? we sent it on the most expensive promised post that the post office had to offer. Please someone answer this for me!!??!!??

SORRY...........But I don't think they are taking quite so long now, but it will be a few weeks at least. It's a mess when you can't organise anything. Will keep my fingers crossed you will get word in record time. Lol x
