Hi, I have decided to attend the MPD 2013 day on 16 November 2013 so have gone ahead and booked flights. I got a really good deal at the President Hotel Russell Square - £147 for 2 nights B&B and 3 course meal each night also. Its the "Lets go weekend" deal if anyone else is interested. You have the choice of other hotels within the group, some have no supplement so it is £125 for the 2 nights B&B & dinners.

Regards, Aime

Hello Aime. I am also going on my own!. I was so worried that I would be the only one sitting by myself. I live just outside London. So I will not stay in town. Just get the tube in. We should all meet up. All the guys who are on our own

It's great to see that you are all coming, and travelling from afar, please don't worry about being on your own, we are a really friendly bunch and we will make sure that you are not left standing on your own, the atmosphere at our forums is always great and friendly and there are a few regulars that make sure that people on their own are introduced to other people.

Hi All, I arrive at Heathrow on 15 November at 1335 hours so will then make my way to the President Hotel. On the Sunday I leave from Heathrow again at 1530 hours. Looking forward to meeting everyone and happy to arrange to meet up before or at the Forum. Kind regards Aime

Hi all, I have booked the President Hotel for two nights, Friday and Saturday. Not sure of my arrival time yet as too soon to book the train. I will be travelling from Exeter, Devon and will aim to arrive around lunchtime, (maybe get some shopping in). I will let you know my mobile number Aime then maybe we can meet up for dinner with whoever else is on their own or who wants company.

Best Regards Judy x

Hi maggie, I think I will do the exeter to paddington train on the Friday and will come back on Sunday. I'm sure the train will either stop at Tiverton or Taunton.

Hi everyone, just getting some prices of hotels, where are you all staying and do you know if they are close to venue

Aime in reply tokentuckyrain

Hi kentuckyrain, The President Hotel is in Russell Square quite close to venue - if my map reading skills are correct! I think a few of us are booked in there. Ask for or look for the "Lets go weekend" deal which was £147 but includes two breakfasts and two dinners or lunches. Looking forward to meeting everyone. Aime

Hi I hope to be there with my husband. He has ET. We went to this in 2011 and found it to be very informative and helpful. I have registered but haven't booked flights or hotels yet as I have to wait to have leave confirmed at work. it would be nice to see some one else there from Dublin.

I'd like to attend, do you need to purchase tickets? I'll be coming from Essex using the c2c into Fenchurch Street if anyone in the area would like company.

We found a National holidays weekend in London on offer for the same weekend. Saturday is the one free day, we will be at the Living with MPDs Forum. The plus side is this has enabled us to have a long weekend in London and perhaps see a show, etc. If your travelling down from Yorkshire it is well worth seeing if there is any availability left. here is the link nationalholidays.com/holida...
