Yorkshire Yankee, glad to hear you you are able to make it. If the train option is the one, then I'll have a Skipelf pick you up from Hull9, or advise you on the buses across the Bridge (It's the biggest bridge in Hull9). Do the fine-tuning by PM (including moby number if you have one of those ghastly modern contrivances) and I'll see to it.

Regarding accomodation boasting 240 volts, Mooman tells me that Doo Ron Ron and Glen can't make it this year (because Glen is succeeding Romano Prodi or summat), so the rheum over the road from here offered by the rolling-pin wielding Mrs Styles is officially free for rent.

Jane and Geoff Duck have told me that it is unlikely they will be able to make it, so there's no need to reply on that one.

I am now entering the panic zone well known to all previous MudEuroGather organisers, even the cool head of Wolfgang.
