Oh, sorry, I think Barking is quite a lot further out than Clapton, isn't it? But I would still be happy to share a taxi with you if it would help. Do you want to find out how much a minicab from Gloucester Rd to Barking via Clapton would cost?

hoxtonchick · 10/10/2005 12:16

don't you want a lift then dino ?

hocuspocusdiplodocus · 10/10/2005 12:18

hoxtonchick, I would really appreciate it, but didn't want to leave Floss high and dry

hoxtonchick · 10/10/2005 12:21

maybe floss could squeeze in the car to/from hackney (i am probably bringing dd so it will be a bit of squash, but possible) which at least is close to high st ken than barking?

FrightfullyPoshFloss · 10/10/2005 12:21

Dino, won't be high and dry. Last tube goes at about midnight. Might mean leaving a bit earlier, but as I have no idea where Clapton is I'm guessing its nowhere near, so will probably end up costing us both a bomb if we were to share a cab! Thanks so much for offering though, you're very kind.

hocuspocusdiplodocus · 10/10/2005 12:23

hoxtonchick - you're bringing dd?! Er - is that a good idea? It was pretty smoky, and VERY noisy last time!

hoxtonchick · 10/10/2005 12:26

am willing to be talked out of it dino. she hasn't encountered a bottle yet though... still, it won't be my problem!

hocuspocusdiplodocus · 10/10/2005 12:29

Well, you've got ages to try her with a bottle, I guess. Although it does mean having to do that expressing thing, though, groan!

FrightfullyPoshFloss · 10/10/2005 12:33

Thanks so much for your offer HC, can I get back to you? Hope that dosen't seem rude. Would just like to try and work out how much a cab would be from there.

glitterfairy · 10/10/2005 12:39

Travel lodge go down to 60 sometimes crunchie for a double would prefer own room as Beets says I snore! She lies! I do a sort of sweet disney sound like one of the dwarves in snow white that is not snoring it is cute!

crunchie · 10/10/2005 12:49

GF unfortuneately the London ones are more expensive. I will put you down as a yes and I am happy to share a room with you if you like, your snoring will remind me of home

crunchie · 10/10/2005 12:49

I'll check out single room prices if you prefer.

Grrr, tried to do an online quote for a cab from Hackney and just got a message back via email that they do not have a cab available. WTF? How can they already know they don't have one for 6 weeks time? I only wanted a quote!!

Tortington · 10/10/2005 14:08

ask for a quote for any saturday night/sunday morning.

then you will be able to hail one am sure - but at least you will have an idea of how much its goign to cost

Floss!

Actually, the hotel room prices sound quite reasonable - it might be cheaper to stay if you can afford it!

chicagomum · 10/10/2005 16:36

Custardo,did you seemy post renot sending the check until the end ofthe month when we return to UK, as I don't have a check book out here? If it is a prob I will ask someone in UK to send it although I'm reluctant to do that as it would mean letting that person know my nickname.

HuggyBear · 10/10/2005 16:41

im really nervous about going
