Why is only likely to be Scars of Mirrodin? I thought this season was Scars?

I am likely to be driving up on Sunday and have spaces.

Also, the metropolitan line has closures on Sunday!

[Jason Savage]

[Nathan Gotlib]

When I saw New Cross I knew it runs to Haggerston and I would pass that station whatever route I took to the event.

Change of plans: due to my upcoming exhibition I will be unable to attend as I have a pile of work to do....... thanks a lot for the offer though : ( and good luck obviously!

[Eugene Hwang]

Any chance you would be passing through north or central London, Jason? (I live in Camden) If so, would I be able to catch a lift with you?

[Jason Savage]

Hi Eugene,
I qam sorting out my route today, I am waiting for someone to say yes or no.

If they say no I will be able to pick people up at Highbury and Islinton station before going up to the A41.

[Eugene Hwang]

Ah, well if you do end up swinging by Highbury and Islington I am definitely interested!  I'll await your reply then.
