Bus to Waterford

[Poor Student]

When would a bus have to leave the Montrose to get there in time? If it's 3 or after I might have two plus myself going. Is there any interest in this?

[Poor Student]

Pineapple says we need at least 20 to make this break even. It's highly unlikely we'll get this together but we have so far:

Poor Student
Poor Student's brother
Gooner Student
Harpo (said he'd go either way)
Pinapple Stu
Schumi (I assume)
Dmythdman (still want to go?)

That's 7. Lefty, Colie, Reginald, any of you interested? Can someone find out if they are? Plus Drunken Deco, his posse and other randomers.

Bottom line - we didn't put it in our original budget, and we aren't up on our budget, therefore we can't afford to spend any money on it. If we were Shels, we'd be OK, but alas...

Schumi - did you get a quote in the end?

[Poor Student]

Not sure if that's directed at me Pineapple or just a general point to others (I did get your text ). I perfectly understand, I'm just seeing if we can somehow muster the numbers. They do exist but are rarely all available at once. Are Bald Student, Student Mullet, Aberdonian Stu or John83 interested at all too? Did you try to get word to the others above?

[Aberdonian Stu]

I have far, far, far too much work to do.

Never thought I'd be saying that.

Also I can't afford it with my holiday coming up. Don't quote the cheapness of the bus, the ancillary expenses are the killer for me.

I'm going either way but I wouldn't count on the two of us.

[DmanDmythDledge]

I'm definitely going.

[Poor Student]

I'm definitely going.

Unless 12 more (at least) can be russled up very fast you won't be going by hired bus. I can't contact anyone else but the ones who've already agreed, so it's up to others.

So how will we be getting down? Train, car? It doesn't bother me but I'll get whichever one is later.

Bus at 4:00 will get you there at 7:00. Bus at 2:30 will get you there at 5:30.

Train at 3:05 will get you there at 5:35, train at 4:25 will get you there at 7.

I really don't think I can head unless I get back the same night.

[DmanDmythDledge]

I really don't think I can head unless I get back the same night.

Same with me probably.

[Poor Student]

Same with me probably.

Hence the reason to push for a bus. You won't be getting back with public transport. Rope some mates in.

[DmanDmythDledge]

Rope some mates in.

I'll try but they're lazy shíts.

[Poor Student]

I'll try but they're lazy shíts.

The drinking thing is a good selling point.
