I've just added my name to the poll.  Saturdays are probably best for 
me, although I could possibly make a Sunday.  I'd rather not do a 
weekday unless I can get away with it as I'm contracting at the moment 
so if I don't work I don't get paid, so it would cost me a days wages 
plus traveling costs etc.

I've mentioned it in the Devon & Cornwall LUG but so far I'm only 
getting lukewarm reception, possibly only 2 or 3 people (out of about 
200) interested.  Doesn't help that we're so spread out!

So... getting a coach from Devon/Cornwall to London might not be cost 
effective.  Sean, do you know how many people from your LUG would be 
interested?

Looking at Google, going from Devon to London via Glastonbury only adds 
30 mins to the journey, but I guess we'd need a minimum number to make 
it cost effective.  Otherwise I guess it might work out cheaper to book 
the train in groups (South West Trains have some fairly good offers on 
advanced bookings such as save over 60% when booking groups of 10 or 
more, or 3 or 4 adults travel together for the price of 2 adults).
