Saying that we were in the Auld Dubliner talking to three guys from the Brazilian football team and Hulk was there but he doesn't speak a word of English. I didn't even know who they were but my mate was a gibbering mess.
Anyway.... what was the topic again?'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

The S Class would be 06/07 with high mileage.
I take the M60/M56/M6/M42/M40/M25/M23. I think and there is always a lot of traffic, so I get bored really quickly and don't want to get done for speeding!
Yes, I agree the plane journey make take longer, but seems less hassle, I only have hand luggage so I presume I would need to be there approx 30 minutes before flight.
Train journey is good for Manchester to Euston, it only takes about 2 hours, but the rest of the journey takes another 2 hour 30 minutes - minimum.Comment

I want to leave Friday evening and be back on Sunday evening.Comment

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostHmm, see your dilemma now. Forget what I said. I would be thinking hard about ways around that one. Why not just get a gig in Manchester
I'd suggest a flight from Manchester to Gatwick, but there aren't any. Which airport are you planning to fly to - Gatwick was the only one near the M23 that I could think of.Comment

I sound sad, but this is the job I have waited for and its a long long away. All my previous jobs were no more than 8 miles away.
Besides I much prefer this that getting to Liverpool or Sheffield, getting stuck in traffic for two hours and then being stressed getting into work/coming home.Comment
