Here are some website addresses for accommodation,many are within walking distance of Burghley House and are situated within the Old Town of Stamford.
Early booking is advised as Stamford is quite a tourist trap at times and remains busy in conjunction with the many events that take place around the area.

Some places such as the George will be relatively expensive but I'm sure not to daft especially if your coming from the South.

Rubbish biggrin

Seriously, sounds great. Rooms are reasonable in the George Hotel so that and the seafood platter are for me cloud9

I assume staying on the 26th and drive to Burghley on the 27th? 13th and 14th are fine too, so as soon as things are confirmed then bookings can be made and seafood looked forward to smile

Nice venue - so count me/us in, esp. if I don't have to drag my a**e round the 3 day event Cross Country course with 50,000 others like I normally do...

Great,the Garden room in the George is the place to be IMO much less formal than the Oak Panelled Dining Room, plus you don't have to dress up like a Penguin.

The George is a pleasant 10 minute walk from Burghley House so there's no need to drive on the 27th,you could just enjoy the walktumbleweed.

Really, let me say this once and only once beware the Seafood Platter its a big BcensoredD..............

A pleasure.......lets keep the numbers piling in,although its early days it makes it worthwhile to see such enthusiasm.

You never know if everyone behaves and it don't do my head in I might start doing others,when I came back I said I would look to do things for everyone
and that intention hasn't changed.

I may be daft as a brush but I'm a man of my word and with the sad Demise of that little Blue Urchin shaking the forum to its core it probably needs a pick up
so lets go for it and enjoy the planning,the run up,the day and I'm sure the many more that will followthumbup

ED there is a vacancy for Area 3 rep if your interested you seem to be a dab hand at organising.
I'm interested in attending but it's nearly a year away so will show my interest nearer the time as I'm sure this will go ahead.

It'll go a head alright baring some Plague of Biblical Proportion......or the Wife saying I can'twhistle

Well and as for the Area 3 job........it would be rude to consider as I've just entered the fold so I'm just happy currently being intent
on World Domination,frankly that sounds easier.

Any way long way off or not get on the list as I need a rough guide line for H and S reasons and of coarse the avoidance of independent
Public Liability Insurance for my meeting next week.

So there you have it and finally,

Else,if thou refuse to let my people go,behold,tomorrow will bring Locusts.......
