I was singing Magic when I got the news. It's a kinda magic, magic, magic. Freddie would be turning in his grave bless him, sorry Freddie, but it was the thoughts of James

My problem is transport. There is no direct route to Norhtwhich, just busses and trains that run at strange hours, still I'm hoping that I can get myself there and eventually meet up with some others from here.

nice one Wyvern. I checked the times for trains etc. 09.15 bus to Altrincham, then train from Altrincham to Chester stopping at Northwhich at 10.35 so I don't think I'll miss too much, Just hope I catch a glimps of James.

Is it not on their website? Checking in times do vary I know but most are usually 12:00 or at the latest 14:00.

Can't find it, but as I want to make an adjustment to my booking, I'll check when I call. But I think my train gets in about 1.30pm (I'm leaving just after 7am!) so I shouldn't think I'll have to hang around too long.

Hey everyone! God, havn't been on here for ages!! Just thought I'd mention that I live In Northwich and if anyone is struggling for somewhere to sleep one night during Thundersprint, I have a reasonably comfy sofa going spare in our living room, rent free!!!!
Would love to meet up with people while you are all here (maybe I could swap numbers with some of you to make it easier, if thats ok?)
Oooh, I'm so excited now!!!!! Kimmi x

I am more that happy to meet people off the bus and show them the delights of Northwich (never thought I'd say that!) The town centre and the Floatel are within 10 mins of my house!

Hi I am still hoping to go to this so would people meet with me as well? I would be alone. I still need to book somewhere to stay though. hope I can find somewhere not too far away. I read that you can meet some of the celebs at the place you are all staying on the Saturday. I wonder if that also means James?

Hey Starfish, of course we'd meet up with you too! I'm sure we can meet up in the Floatel bar, even if we're not all staying there.

Just found this little snippet on the Thundersprint website. Unfortunately, I don't think they mean it in quite the way we'd be hoping...
You won't see any in-your-face-activities at the Thundersprint. We specialise in Maypole dancing rather than Pole Dancing!

Can visualize loads of Bohemian woman all dancing round a phallic symbol with a photo of James on the top!!!!! Funny enought, that's almost exactly NOT what I was visualising!

I know I'm a little late but does anyone need a roomie for this? I really want to head but fear I wouldn't be able to afford a room all on my lonesome, though I shall search and hope for the best

I have been given the go ahead to attend this avent. I Need a roomie if your interested go team. its up to you. I want to book somewhere like now as time is ticking away. I know I am greedy where James is concerned as I have just recently met him but this will be a fun weekend & a chance to get to know people & make new friends.
