Just be sure to let me know before the day (the night before is okay, but earlier would be preferable) and make sure you bring your membership card and your money!

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5 485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq	Was just discussing this today with a friend of mine who's going there. Think i'll go as well if not just to find out what my real BW is incase I'm a bit over before the Europeans. Bit short on dosh now though so it depends on if I can catch a ride as I don't want to spend 50 pounds on a taxi.

The ones we are using at the comp have been professionally calibrated and are probably more accurate than any you will ever use (seriously). So you can calibrate your own scales against them. I think I'm going to bring mine from home to do this! Where do you live? Maybe we can organise a lift for you?

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5 485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq	I did bring my own scales with me to the British but didn't bring them to the actual weigh in room but 5 min after weighing in (the first time out of three) my scales showed 1.3kg more than the scales used at weigh in. They are electronic though so not sure if I can calibrate them, but can at least get an idea of how wrong they are. Good idea! I live in Lewisham but might be able to take an early bus elsewhere if that would make an easier pickup.

I reckon you can get from Lewisham to Sunbury in just over an hour using public transport (train). Then someone could collect you. Check http://www.tfl.gov.uk/

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5 485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq	Odd, I remember looking for trains to Sunbury before when I've gone to the divisional meets last year and this Feb but couldn't get any trains. I must have done something wrong when I looked for them because now there are plenty of trains in the mornings so shouldn't be any problem getting there. And it doesn't take more than 30min longer compared to the 1h taxi journey that cost me 50. And it's only like 3Km from the station so can just jog it. Cool, see you there then. Will send off an application form later on today.
