Hello Cambridge

[j4]

I'll be in Cambridge next Saturday (5th June) for a party, & if possible I'd like to make a long weekend of it, i.e. come over on the morning of Friday 4th (or maybe even Thursday night -- hey, does the Carlton still happen on Thursdays?) and stay till Sunday afternoon.

So, with apologies for doing this as a big impersonal request, does anybody:

a) know of a cheap B&B on the north-ish side of Cambridge, or
b) have a spare bed for some/any/all of Thurs/Fri/Sat nights?

(addedentry will be joining me on the Saturday, so we will both need somewhere to stay on the Saturday night.)

I haven't been to Cambridge for far too long. Will be trying to meet up with literally everybody[*] (including several people who aren't on LJ, people I used to work with, & people I haven't spoken to for over a year). I can't see how this can possibly turn into a complete (dis)organisational nightmare where I end up running round like a mad badger & still managing to upset people by not seeing them all, no no, not at all. :-}

[*] OK, pedants, not literally literally everybody.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner! If you're still willing (and if james_r won't be offended by me turning down his offer!), please could we bagsy your futon for Friday and Saturday nights? (That is, it'll be just me on Friday night & Owen too on Saturday night.) Will gladly recompense you with e.g. beer or nearest local equivalent. :)

I am hoping you're going to the same thing as us on Saturday night? :)

Yay, that will be lovely, looking forward to it.

Yes, we are going to a significant birthday party on Saturday night.

Ah, I was just coming to check if you still needed crash space, and say you'd be very welcome at ours if you didn't find any! Rachel's is definitely far handier for town than ours :)

Thanks! -- but yes I will stick with Rachel's, it is just a wee bit closer. :)

I hope I'll see you anyway on Sat. though? :)

[lnr]

Yes, we shall be there. Though I was briefly confused about which Saturday it was: just back from holiday and I'd got my weeks all muddled :)
