It's a motel basically. They did great burgers too!

Near St. Albans in Hertfordshire. Problem is it's easy to miss, I did on the first go and we had to turn around.

This sounds like a lot of fun. Too bad I'm not in the UK. 
Post pictures and writeups when you're done, okay?

Bugger!
Tell them it's ridiculous that you should start the year on a Thursday, and add "so f### off" to the end of the sentence. ¬_¬

Yeah, as well as that for 14 hours of time in college I'm only in lessons for 6 hours of it, most of that time being post-noon on Friday. Sigh.

I'll check the trains.
They seem to be okay on the 3rd. I can get a train from Liverpool to Huddersfield with no changes and get there in under 90 minutes. £16. But would anywhere be open?

Hmm...
They should be by then. January Sales and all that.
Trains seem fine from a Londonward direction as well.

Splendid.
And for anyone coming from London, and possibly this applies to the other end of the GNER line (Edinburgh/Newcastle/Wherever):
And here's a thing. These el-cheapo GNER tickets are only valid on the train specified, at the time specified, in the seat specified. So if you were to miss your connection in Leeds/Manchester/Wakefield, you'd be, to put none to fine a point on it, fucked.
So, it may be better to gather in Leeds and then get the bus to Huddersfield. Which would be about £4 cheaper each way, as well.
