Cambridge: off again :-( :-(

I'm afraid despite last week's promise we're not going to make it to Cambridge today. Given that SNOW is forecast for later today in both Cambridge and Oxford, it really doesn't seem sensible to try to get to Cambridge and back and risk being stranded somewhere en route. :-(

I am really starting to feel like this trip is cursed! The person who told me off for using a car will doubtless be cackling with gleeful schadenfreude. Nonetheless, we will try again NEXT SATURDAY (11th), weather and transport permitting...

ETA: I have sent a txt to the people who originally said they'd come along for whom I have mobile numbers, viz.: [livejournal.com profile] rmc28, [livejournal.com profile] lnr, [livejournal.com profile] ewx, [livejournal.com profile] juggzy, [livejournal.com profile] claerwen and [livejournal.com profile] fivemack.

I do not have mobile numbers for [livejournal.com profile] ghoti or [livejournal.com profile] uitlander, so if anybody thinks they're likely to be making a special trip to see us, could they let them know? (Confusing pronouns, sorry!)

BTW I appear to have three mobile numbers for [livejournal.com profile] fivemack -- I picked the one that I believe to be the most recent, but sorry if I picked the wrong one! :-(

oops, I saw your tweet and meant to reply but forgot. We not only were planning on joining you, we still plan to go, for meeting of Oxonians in the person of Dr Jarrett.

In case you want my number for future reference, it's 07957596800.

I might have problems making it next week, but I can always see you when I pop over to Oxford.

Suits me, I'll be in town as well that day. If you plan a small public house assembly anywhere, then I'd love to come.

Hi, it now turns out that I may be able to come! I have a meeting on the Saturday morning, but it may finish in time to allow me to get up to the Carlton - I'll SMS on the day.
