Hehe, I cleared all the hurdles in exactly that way ... so I'm in for ThirstyMeeples!

Excellent. That's how all the best people do hurdles. 8)

Awesome news, see you in a few months! :(y)

Hurdles? What hurdles? and what lane am I in anyway!?

That looks like hurdling after the ThirstyMeeples event...  :o
I just drew the perfect tile for my MonKnighThieFarmer!

Sad news. You will be missed at both. :(

Any chance that if you resigned now you could apply for your old job again after the UK champs? I don't actually know why I'm suggesting this as my chances of doing well increase significantly if you're not there... :P

I'd very much like to join you guys, especially seeing as it's International TableTop Day - uncanny timing that!

However, I may be struggling to make it as I should really be at a work leaving do the night before which will no doubt result in the consumption of large quantities of alcohol. Now whilst this may be pretty enjoyable at the time, I'm not sure it's good preparation for driving the 250 mile round trip to Oxford! However, should I be able to excuse myself or maybe just not drink very much (!) then I was wondering what's the plan - are you intending on spending most of the day / evening there, or just a few hours? Apparently they're open 9am until midnight and it's either £4.50 / £6 each cover charge for 3 hours (unless you've arranged a special event booking or something).

I'd be grateful if you could let me know sooner rather than later. Cheers.

Thanks mate, it'd be really good to meet you too. Any idea what the plans are for the day?

Drive to Oxford.  Meet online buddies in Thirsty Meeples. Play Carcassonne all day.  Drive home.  That's my hope.

I don't know if Dan/other has booked an 'event' though.

Thanks, didn't know if it was going to be an all day (and potentially evening) session, and whether we'd be welcome to stay for so long as it's likely to be a busy day!

I've already booked a table for 6 people, we seem to have a lot of interest  :(y)

I've booked 2x3hr slots (so 6hrs) from 11am til 5pm. Each slot costs £4.50 (if you eat/drink at the venue, otherwise it's £6).  So that's £9 per person (or £12).

I've booked a large table - and need to pay a deposit by the 20th April of £27, so this is the deadline for letting me know you're coming  :(y).

If you're definitely up for a day of Carcassonne and Coffee - I would appreciate some assistance with the deposit.  I'm happy to take £9 from you now, or just £4.50 if you'd rather.

6 people was just an estimate.  I will be confirming final numbers on the 20th - however costs will essentially be the same if more people attend.

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks Decar, that sounds great to me! I'll definitely be there and am happy to pay towards the deposit, so let me know how you would like to receive that.
