And if you're in Birmingham, RJ, you're just eight stops from Aber.

Birmingham is a major rail hub, easy for people to get to from anywhere. Direct lines to Manchester, Bristol, Reading and London amongst others which is where most posters will be.

Of course it's a major rail hub. But it's only one short journey from the hub to somewhere nice. That's why it's a hub, and not a destination.

There are some nice bits in Birmingham center.

Of course last time I wanted to get back from Birmingham I got into Birmingham at about 9:30pm and got home at 1:30 am. Only a 2 hour delay, ****ing Virgin trains.

Thanks for the advice guys - I think it might be best to just put up with it until September.

I'd love to meet up in November. Don't arrange Birmingham too soon though - I don't know if I got in till mid August.

And I'll almost certainly be visiting Aber at some point, seeing as some friends are going there.

As long as the trip wouldn't be to Cadbury's World, I'd be potentially okay for Birmingham. Last time I went there meeting people online, I ended up -ahem-ing with them, and there's not that good a range of people to -ahem- with from Apolyton =o

Ah... a little mystery that has been bugging me for nearly a week now: Why does Dovey Junction (Cyfford Dyfi) exist? It's just a platform in the middle of nowhere, with no obvious exits, and you can change trains just as easily at Machynlleth.
