Re: [Tower Ravens] Bromyard

Hi All, For those going to Bromyard, here's an update on roughly what is happening. We have currently been asked to do a workshop on the Saturday at 0945 and the ceilidh spot in the evening at 2100 - both of these will be on the main site - so short walk from the tent in the morning! Otherwise, we'll likely have some spots around the town from memory and can find our way to dancing in pubs! On the Friday night there is the torchlit procession, which at the moment I have been slightly non-committal as not very many of us were sure when we would be likely to be arriving. The procession starts at 2030, so once you've sorted your travel out, if you could let me know yay or nay for procession if you haven't already. ☺ So... travel. I think I noted before that the easiest option is taking either the 1523 or 1445 train from London, both of which get you to Bromyard at 1833 - if you're able to "work from home" on the train, this would be a good option if taking public transport. The other option completely by public transport is the 1922 from Paddington which after waiting about an hour for a bus will get you there at 1225. However, given that the latter isn't ideal, then the team can reimburse taxis - though perhaps try and coordinate a group if possible. This brings me onto getting home, which has the slight difficulty of there not actually being any buses (except for the 0850) - so again we'd need to look at taxis, or whether anyone driving could drop people off in Worcester or somewhere on their way back. I'm not sure who is driving though... The good news is that the Paddington-Worcester return is £36.15 with railcard (other routes available) As it seemed to mostly work with Sidmouth, could you add your travel arrangements to the Bromyard section at the bottom of the sign-up sheet. If you happen to be driving and are able to help with any king of lifts on Sunday / would have space for a person in exchange for petrol money, please could you add that as well? In terms of packing things, one thing to bear in mind that whilst it is pleasant during the day, once sun has gone down, it gets really cold! So you'll definitely be wanting your hoody, and maybe layers to go under it as well. 🕶 Thanks, Hannah
