If you end up at Victoria you will need to get on the underground to Green Park on Victoira line North bound.....one stop, and then change to Jubilee Line and go southbound to Waterloo.......3 stops.

Lyn-Su · « **Reply #67 on:** January 28, 2008, 22:23:43 PM »

I'll be there!

Waterloo is great choice as I can get a direct train from New Malden.

Shall we meet under the clock wearing red carnations Del Boy style?

Canterbury_cats (Sharon) · « **Reply #66 on:** January 28, 2008, 19:09:09 PM »

Thanks all.. If i take the victoria route and end up at Victoria station that i know well do i just head towards Waterloo on the underground there or do i have to change..!

Sorry London isnt me, i hate the crowds...! But then again thats what cities are like...

The more the merrier!

blackcat · « **Reply #65 on:** January 28, 2008, 18:19:29 PM »

or if you catch the Charing Cross train, instead of the one to Cannon Street, it will stop at Waterloo East and you just follow the signs....

Canterbury Cats - from London Bridge just take the Jubilee line tube to Waterloo, it's really easy. If all are welcome, hope to see you, but can only decide at the very last minute if that's ok?

actually that has enough style and idiosyncracity I might be tempted. But getting on and off the train could be tricky cos I would forget my head all the time. Also, I suspect I would make a rather cuddlier kitty than she does.

She is Chavcat

What a pity it's not the summer or I'd wear my new "The Mogfather" T.Shirt although this one would also fit the bill....................

Cheers

sorry, I refse point blank to appear in london wearing cat motifs!! I do have a small black stuffed toy cat that I might be persuaded to carry but perhaps if we choose alocation in Waterloo station that is easily recognisable even for newcomers that might be a better choice ...

How about one of these?

I'm going up to Waterloo tomorrow evening so I'll have a wander and see if there's a suitable meeting point where peeps can get a coffee or summat, its proabably easier to stay inside the station until we're all together, then we can wander off to get some lunch thereafter?

Hi all
I will try to put a list together a week or so before the met up and if need be PM you mobile number..

Would appreciate if anyone local to Waterloo can let me know how to get their via Victoria line.. or London Bridge (as i can get a train direct to london bridge) i dont know London that well.

Thanks all, so we agree on any kind of cat mofit.. Clothing, scarf, badge....etc... Just so all know..

Can anyone tell me if there is a cafe that people can wait at outside or inside the station... I have only been there once at it was very late..

Ta

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #55 on:** January 27, 2008, 11:04:10 AM »

Nah, the more the merrier. Imagine the waiting staff's faces with all of us together. Seriously we need a big kitty plush. I have a orange Garfield but no way could you pay me enough to be standing there holding him

rosiesmum · « **Reply #54 on:** January 27, 2008, 08:24:41 AM »

Apologies I have been offline for a while, is it too late to gateceash this gathering?

LeighK · « **Reply #53 on:** January 25, 2008, 15:39:49 PM »

the 8th works for me, I'm also with the "cheaply" bit so I'll start walking now

Cheers

Leigh

puddypaws · « **Reply #52 on:** January 25, 2008, 15:38:50 PM »

Might be able to make it on 8th but not sure yet.

Canterbury_cats (Sharon) · « **Reply #51 on:** January 25, 2008, 15:31:49 PM »

March 8th it is then... No worries people i wasnt thinking of going somewhere really posh to have lunch or anything.. Besides it was a few months back since i raided a bank.. and no i am just living on interest....

The reason i said noon is then you dont have to pay the early rate for trains... If we can meet at Waterloo, that would be good.. Lunch, natter and then if people have to leave no problems..

Mark weekend cheap day return is about 12.00 but it may of gone up since last year.. I have one of those network rail cards and they are def worth the money..

Forms of identification to be sorted out later.. But in the meantime pls make a note in your diaries be nice to see some of you..

clarenmax · « **Reply #50 on:** January 25, 2008, 15:13:59 PM »

Defo agree with cheaply here too

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #49 on:** January 25, 2008, 14:03:55 PM »

Parking for me will be about that too Mark. Its why I say we do something cheaply so everyone gets to enjoy it.

Mark · « **Reply #48 on:** January 25, 2008, 14:02:03 PM »

I still can't decide until the last minute as OH has been away all week most of the time for the last 2 years and Saturday is our only full day really - Sunday is preparing for the next week. Also I have to watch money as I only have some money left over from the B&B which is depleting rapidly - a cheap day return to London is £20 as well

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #47 on:** January 25, 2008, 13:55:34 PM »

I'm due in Spain the following week so will have to watch pennies too, but it doesn't need to be expensive at all. Even a morning tea or something like that.

clarenmax · « **Reply #46 on:** January 25, 2008, 13:54:34 PM »

I'll pencil it in...

Dawn F · « **Reply #45 on:** January 25, 2008, 12:16:50 PM »

my oh gets back from italy on 7 March so I think it might not go down too well if I rush off to London on 8th! Not a problem next time!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #44 on:** January 25, 2008, 00:26:59 AM »

I sadly am just too broke now and the car is sick to add to the problem

Reynard · « **Reply #43 on:** January 24, 2008, 21:54:12 PM »

Mmmm, I might be lurking in London around then - if so, I hope I can join in!

I *am* rather skint though.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #42 on:** January 24, 2008, 19:47:56 PM »

March 8th it is for me.

Canterbury_cats (Sharon) · « **Reply #41 on:** January 24, 2008, 19:43:40 PM »

Hi all
If we keep it March 8th it would seem that only Dawn would have a problem making it.. Everybody else can do the 8th but not the only dates...

Dawn is the 8th totally out for you...?

blackcat · « **Reply #40 on:** January 24, 2008, 18:50:03 PM »

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, sorry, confused. Can not type becaues a) smigeen is on my annds and b) sahadiw s leaning on the keyboard with his head looking ucte and appealing - apparently toad in the hole is dog food???

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #39 on:** January 24, 2008, 18:48:23 PM »

Not this weekend Jo, Sharon means weekend of 23/24 Feb.

blackcat · « **Reply #38 on:** January 24, 2008, 18:39:44 PM »

This weekend is way too close ( I already have two alternatives I could be doing). but 8 March is achievable. I agree (sadly) that London is the obvious choice as all public transport routes lead to London. I will put it in my diary now so I can be sure to get there ....

lucy · « **Reply #37 on:** January 24, 2008, 16:56:06 PM »

We're still in limbo with OH's move, so 8th March may be better for me. But I can't really plan anything too firmly at the moment - so I really hope I can come whenever it is!

So I'm guessing a giant fluffy cat toy is the choice then

Or one of us can dress up in a "Puss in Boots" costume hun

I'm busy this weekend (24th/25th) so the 8th March sounds good to me.

Cheers

Canterbury_cats (Sharon) · « **Reply #30 on:** January 24, 2008, 08:28:34 AM »
