Oh, and further to the transport issue, if anyone wants to arrive early or leave late, I have bedspace and you're welcome to stay chez Pen. I'll make sure you get to the airport on time.
I was just about to email you! Adelate and I will arrive on Stansted on Thursday at midnight as usual, so would you be interested in picking us up? Again? Ahahaha. Sorry. :) (That was not the plan, but our original flight was cancelled.)
Of course that depends on how much you're willing to drive and how many people you'll already have over. If not, we have plan B and will manage. :)
I have no problem collecting you from Stansted in the usual midnight way ;-) So far there are no other takers for bedspace, but with the brats away in any case, we have plenty of room.
The only flight I could find home that matched with the trains at Kastrup was at 11.55 from Gatwick on the Saturday, but I know that a long way from Hemel Hempstead so I'm probably better off staying at Ephemera's in London, right?
At one time it was really easy and convenient to get from my house to Gatwick, as there were direct trains thither from St Albans. At the moment, the Thameslink line does not seem to be working, so you'd have to get a train into London and then progress... so, yes, you're probably better off staying with Ephemera, particularly since she won't be able to make it (probably) to CS and it'll give you a chance to see her. However, if that proves impractical, you can certainly overnight chez Pen, and we'll figure out the best way to get you to the Gatwick train. :-)
It's like I said to Ephemera, Gatwick's inconveniently located from EVERYWHERE :-) I'm leaning towards staying in London at the moment but there's still a couple of months left to make decisions in.
