You daft sod ! Fancy doing a bloody stupid thing like that.
It's nearly as silly as Mr Honeypot discovering that he can shoot lager out of 1 nostril and coffee out of the other ...
Roll on next year so we can see what new tricks the both of you have learned |

Perhaps its closed, but it was on the main street on sea front. Where does it say the nearest mainline station is then, cant be far away. We can still pick you up if your up for it. |

By train or rail If you are travelling by train, the nearest main line station to Minehead is Taunton. A bus transfer service is operated by Southern National between Taunton Station and Minehead. This service is available at an additional cost. On Mondays to Saturdays, there's approximately an hourly service, with the last bus leaving Taunton Railway Station at 10:15 pm. |

Booked, opted for a Silver room as the standard rooms only have baths.
Only paid 25 GBP deposit and I can pay more over the next few months until Aug 2011!
Can't wait! |

Maybe we should consider going together? Well sharing a room.anyway lol, I will book a room and stick the deposit down at the end of the month if you like? I'll be taking the train too, so we could probably meet up somewhere along the way. We got along well at the bbw bash. As its a year away it gives us loads of time to save up. Let me know if your interested. |

Minehead station is part of the preserved West Somerset Railway and not directly connected to the mainline system for through trains. Yes, the track is there but no facility for a direct connection because National Rail won`t allow it! Bastids |

"is it 80s outfits we are talking about ?"
.
What we observed when we were at Skegness last year was that, the groups that dressed up as near to or identical were the most noticable.
Hence we thought about dressing up en masse in the same outfits etc...

So what should we go as then ?
We thought (and this is only our idea, by no means set in stone)
Friday - Schoolgirl / Schoolboy
Saturday - Playboy Bunny - and (Pearl's idea) Pimps
Sunday - Go as you please and (Pearl's idea) - New Romantics - Dig out those Simon le Bon Wigs
See Pearl, we didn't try to steal your thunder ..
Any ideas ?? - put them here but remember whatever is decided is by no means the law anyone can go as whoever / whatever they choose ... |

"By the end of the 80s i was only 8 years old so i think i need some help here.... simon le who...."
.
Awwww, bless!
Google the following and have a look at their pics from that era:
Spandau Ballet
Adam and the Ants
Duran Duran
Ultravox
Depeche Mode
Thompson Twins
Dead or Alive
The Human League
etc...
Big fluffy hair, lots of make up, as in heavy black eyeliner with multi-colour eyeshadows, very heavy blusher usage, and bright lips.
Floppy ruffled shirts, tight trousers or leggings, loose big belts, pixie boots etc... Or pseudo Indian as favoured by Adam and the Ants!
Happy days! |

Looks like we won't be able to go now ...
Our Daughter is celebrating her partner's 30th birthday and has booked to go to Skegness Butlins guess when ?
On the same fucking weekend that we were going to Minehead, and they want us to go with them (Taxi!). We knew about this a long time ago, but being as scatterbrained as the pair of them are, we've been waiting to see if they changed their mind, or it fell through but alas, they haven't changed their mind and they've paid their deposit, so it looks a though we're going to have to swap our booking to accommodate them ...
Suppose there's always next year ? |

Well we ain't going to Skeggy either now ...
I (Bob) have changed from being self employed to employed and I'll struggle to get the time off so looks like we ain't going anyplace now.
Seems this one was doomed right from the start |

From reading through this thread it appears that a few people can't make it now, or have changed their minds.
But we'll be there, deffo
It's a great weekend.
Might do Bognor next year |
