Travel thoughts...

[fajrdrako]

I'm considering going to The Hub 3. Does anyone have any advice for a clueless Canadian who's never been to Birmingham except to change buses? When I'm in England, where else should I go?

Or I might go to England in August or September, for one of the John Barrowman concerts, which would be better walking weather. I'm hoping to hike a little as well. Still undecided....

Birmingham International is at Birmingham Airport, and also a stop on the fast train route from Euston Station, London to Birmingham proper, Manchester and points north. It is also ten miles from where I live and you have no idea of the level of sulk I could achieve if you didn't come to stay. We have Kenilworth Castle, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avon, the RSC and all sorts of stuff to hand, and the week of The Hub I will be on half-term holiday and thus available as native guide...

Eeeeeee you can't imagine how much I would love to visit you. You don't have to bribe me with Stratford-on-Avon (though that's very effective) and any kind of castle (though that works too, very well) and the hope of talk about Lymond and/or Spike.

If I came in, say, September (for better weather and such) does the invitation still stand?

The invitation stands any time you like (except September 3rd, when my daughter graduates from university), though during the working week I'll be at work, surprisingly. I'd love to have you visit, though I might try to force-feed you more Spike!

I would be happy to be force-fed Spike!
