October workshop - travel & accommodation

It was wonderful to see so many people at this summer's intensive in Kingston and I hope some of you can come up for the Aberdeenshire workshop in October. It's at Fetternear Hall on Saturday 13th to Monday 15th with a weapons session on Friday 12th.

If anyone visiting wants to stay with one of the local students then please get in touch with me and I'll match you up with someone. I know some folk have already made arrangements, but if you still have space available then let me know.

Trains to Aberdeen from London are currently available from £73 return (£128 1st class) if travelling up on Thursday 11th October and returning Tuesday 16th. It's a bit more expensive to travel on Friday 12th. If travelling onwards to Inverurie it's often cheaper to buy an Aberdeen-Inverurie ticket separately. Neither LNER or Scotrail charge booking fees.
