    Seen as there was a thread set up for the other date, I thought there should be one for us Saturday people! :) Just so we can get to know each other and work out how we're all getting there etc!

    I'm going to be travelling there on the day so I'm hoping to meet you all at Disney HQ! ;D

    I'll be flying to London on the Friday, then tubing/training it from south London on the Sat morning.
    I was wondering, i'm so shite with London, anytime I go i just follow everyone else, would my friend be able to come to the interview, obviously not into my actual interview but like just sit outside or something? As that would make my journey so much easier lol.

    To be honest, whilst your friend could come with you to the actual location, I don't think he/she'd be let into the offices themselves because you have to be signed in and checked off a list (they're quite fussy on who they let in! :p) and then you have an hour or so of presentation. Then you're given an interview time... in the past (not promising anything!) they've given earlier interviews to those who have come from further away so you might end up with one in the early afternoon. If it's not long to wait then you can stay in the offices area (they have a waiting area with sofas and stuff) but if it's later in the day then often people leave, go out to find food etc, and then go back.

    The problem is that you don't know how long you'd be until you get into the presentation but of course, you could just call your friend and meet back up with them afterwards :)

    Yeah I know a friend that got waitlisted, then in like end of october they said, hey you wanna go in December! So it ain't all bad, it's just the not knowing!

    My friend lives in Battersea, so I'm probably going to leave the flat at 7am just to make sure I am there on time ha ha ha. Then I'll be on a late train back to Manchester, having a look prices are more expensive than I thought they would be!

    My email is laura.hibbert@hotmail.co.uk if anyone wants to talk, going back to Manchester or whatever.
    Also, I am from Doncaster, Yorkshire, but go to uni in Salford near Manchester, just to disperse any confusion!
    ;D

    If you're anything like me, it's definitely best to go the day before, so at least you're actually IN London on the day. I would be like panic central ha ha! Well done, and see you there!

    Just about. I'm just so excited now. It takes place three days after my last exam so actually, I'm not going to think about it for the next three weeks now. I can't afford to. It's not worth letting my exams suffer, but once they're over it's mega-planning time!

    I'm staying at my boyfriend's place in London so I'll probably travel down a couple days before.

    I made a Facebook event for the meal, feel free to add me anyone. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=182334025151306

    I've put one suggestion on there but feel free to suggest your favourite restaurant/place!
