Maps amended above to show the route from J36, M6.

5 weeks to go !! Fab can't wait , we will be up for a walk as normal.hope the rain keeps at bay,it can be a very soggy site if the rain persists .

Walk to Stanley Ghyll Force? Haven't been there for years. Hope we'll be getting on La'al Ratty too! 

And what is "La'al Ratty ?

Google is your friend, Tim. It's the Ravenglass Railway. I believe we get reduced price tickets courtesy of the site.

La'al Ratty

I've got a cheeky bottle of La a Fee Verte that I may well bring along...

Soopa job will get in training ready.

You know us abs we will walk anywhere, train journey a must though.

Claire has to work on Friday we won't leave Wales till about 6 so it will be very late fri or very early sat so can anyone save us a pitch close to you lot thanks Daz

Will do, Daz.

For sure Daz , but think Abs has already sorted that we're all together anyway!

Just over 3 weeks to go so I thought I post some pics of La'al Ratty for those of you who've never been on this line:

Can't wait , what time does everyone think they will be arriving

Late morning for us Tony, I think.

Ditto

Late Friday evening for us

Probably mid-late afternoon for us , plan to leave Dover between 8-9 in the morning , Jo will want to see Holly off to work and drop the dog off with her Mum first..

Hasn't diesel electric hit that part of the country yet Abs? ;-)

How dare you, that's our finest West Coast rolling stock.

Hi Abs , Any ideas how far the nearest pub with Sky Sports is away , Liverpool on at 4pm on the Sunday afternoon , have the Ipad and Jo's phone as a Wifi Hotspot as backup !!

I've already asked them to put the Rugby League on Steve!   

You are pure evil Mr B   Am sure they wont mind if I watch the Rugby and bring the Ipad with me too!!!

@ESKDALEDUBFEST Q from one of our LFC supporting attendees. Do any of the pubs nearby show SkySports? He's keen to watch the game on Sun pm
