Is it visible on the mobile app or am I just blind?

It’s not visible in the app. I had to go on the website to find it.

Oh, bummer.

That leads to my next question: can someone vote for me? Or is that not allowed / a possibility? The app keeps me logged in so I have literally no idea what my login details are.

When I looked up the website on my phone it had me already signed in from the first time I guess. Cuz I don’t remember mine either.  Maybe try and see if it remembers you?

Thanks for the tip!  Alas, it did not remember me.  But somewhere from the far reaches of my brain, my password appeared.  I have voted!  Hooray!

Love the idea of the Wine, Cheese and Chocolate event... but I'm not quite sure what to do in terms of logistics for the meet up if we are meeting near Bristol Temple Meads station, rather than Cabot Circus, as it's going to be tricky for me to find somewhere to park that doesn't cost a bomb.

It would be nice to stay in a hotel, but the Holiday Inn Express is over £110 for the night (and even the ibis is £85), which seems a lot to pay when my parents live just 15 miles away. On the other hand, if I want to drink, I'd have to ask them for a lift... and that wouldn't be fair on them if it ends up being a late night. There's no train directly to where they live, so if I wanted to take a train, I'd still have to drive to the station on the other end (and the last train back is 11pm).

My last train is 22:30.

I have voted. My husband and I will be going. We're taking the train from Worcester to Bristol; will come back home same day as we're quite close.

Okay, I think I've got things sorted for the 3rd :). My parents have said they'll give me a lift into town and then back home again at the end of the evening, so I don't have to worry about parking or trains :).

I suspect I will be on my own.  I'd be surprised if the whole crew comes....

I will probably take the train unless someone local to me is driving and wants to listen to me talk talk talk the whole way.   [smiley=laugh4.gif]

I think I’ll be solo too.. still trying to work logistics of this because we have a family party that day, but neither of us actually wants to go LOL we are awful...
