Sounds like a top plan.  Hope to be free to take part.

Also tempted but it depends on being able to get away - far too far ahead.

You can get a train direct from York to Bristol Parkway, and either change or ride over the Bridge from there.  



Assuming I am around I don't mind leading a ride from Bristol Parkway!

SOunds like a great idea - all doable in under a day, even fully loaded.

Bugger.  Beat me to it.  I spotted the first four letters and wanted to make some kind of horned-fish pun.  Well done.

Are monarchists not invited at all? Will the loyal toast be banned?

I will be somewhere other than home on that day. 

I'm so very disappointed in Mrs Kunst.

I shall be informing my contacts in homeland security that, having met on a sinister website, a motley gang of extremists from across the Kingdom are meeting at a remote farmhouse in Wales to plot.

Expect black helicopters.

What a cunning idea.

I don't have a clue what I did for the C&D affair, it's too long ago, and I was at school.

I did go for a walk up Cleeve Hill when D was being shovelled under, and I most certainly wasn't the only one.  I think that's the busiest I've ever seen it up there!
Actually, it is rocket science.

For the Charles & Diana wedding, I was on a campsite in France.  Some of the brits had arranged to set up a TV specially to watch.  My sister did.

I spent the day hanging out & playing frisbee with the cool French kids, who were keen to know if there was a revolution happening in Britain.
Getting there...

I'm game for this, work permitting. That area is so lovely to cycle in, you're very lucky living there.

Mrs MV points out that the thread title is probably wrong - the Big Day will likely be midweek...

That's antisocial of them - they could at least make it a Monday or Friday so we  can make a long weekend out of it...
