Hi All

Unfortunately I'm on a flight to Belfast City, arriving at 0810. Same offer as Simon though if it suits anyone!

See you next month - don't forget to register and offer a seminar for the AAE session.

Dear esteemed fellow AAE  members
 
 
 
A request to all those who are also  planning to attend the joint BAP / AAE annual meeting at Armagh Planetarium  next month!
 
 
 
I will be flying into Belfast  International Airport (NOT the Belfast City / George Best version) on the  morning of Friday 19th May (arrival time 0940).  I wondered if anyone  fancied saving carbon emissions and some pennies by sharing a taxi down to  Armagh?  Although it only takes about 50 minutes to Armagh from the  airport by road, according to the www.translink.co.uk Northern  Ireland travel planning website, it takes around 2.5 hours to get there  by bus.  Theoretically, I should be able to get to Armagh by bus in time  for the start of the afternoon sessions, but it's a bit tight!  So, the  more assured options are either (a) get a taxi or (b) rent a car.  The  latter seems a bit pointless as it wouldn't be cheap and there wouldn't be any  driving to be done whilst attending the conference, hence my asking if anyone  fancies sharing a taxi.
 
 
 
Unfortunately, due to flight  timings, I can't join any of the Sunday outings (Newgrange/observatory) as my  return flight leaves at 1355.  Has anyone got a flight back which  leaves around that time, who would be interested in sharing a  taxi?
 
 
 
Alternatively, if you are already  planning to hire a car, would my flight times tie in such that I could cadge a  lift one/both ways and contribute to your costs??
 
 
 
With fingers firmly  crossed,
 
 
 
Simon Ould
