    Yup, I am going from Huddersfield Train station at 10:30am if you'd like a lift:)
    I am not sure yet if I will be coming back to Huddersfield or going straight to Leeds from the demo as I’m off out in Leeds that night.


    So if I don’t go back to Huddersfield I could drop you at Leeds Train Station instead if that’s ok? Should get back to Huddersfield / Leeds no later than 6pm I should think.



    Smartie.uk is coming too and I think so is People are Strange.



    I went to the one near Pickering last weekend and it was great!

    See you there! Love Clairexxx
