    Better late than never - I never received my email on Thursday, so to hear of you guys all getting goood news it was a killer :)

    But finally heard back from Nick about ten minutes ago - GOT AN INTERVIEW! I feel like ive missed out on all the hotel talk/ arranging meet ups though now.

    Can someone add me to the group please :)

    My name is Megan Armson from Manchester.

    Hi Laura - I'll be going back to Manchester on the saturday after the interview - are you just going to book an open return? as we wont have an idea i guess what time to head back... unless you just go for a late evening one to be on the safe side! Well done btw!

    Hi all I am also attending the interviews on the Saturday :) ! I live in Liverpool and I have never been to London before so I'm dead nervous I'll get lost or something, would be nice to meet a few of you beforehand if that's what people are doing :/ I'm not sure how all this works to be hOnest :-\ I'd be grateful of any replies ;D

    Better late than never indeed haha. Welcome :).
    Don't worry you haven't missed anything really, nothings been decided yet :). There's a facebook event for us Saturday people for the Friday night and that's about it on the meeting up front. And a poll on where we're staying so simple to catch up :).

    I've just booked the last train home to be safe. It leaves at 7:50, it's not like London doesn't have anything to keep you busy in if you have an early interview haha. I'm planning on going to see the Peter Pan statue and the Diana memorial fountain and then any other sights i can fit in :D. Bascially i'm treating the whole process as an adventure because i've never been on my own before.

    Hi :).
    I've never been on my own before but it seems really simple if you're getting the train. My train goes to Kings Cross station and then i can get a tube straight to Hammersmith without having to change tubes. I will still be wondering around with a map though just incase haha.

    Ahh okay I'll be the one with a huge map looking confused haha. Do you have a link for the facebook group about meeting up on the friday? I havn't a clue where to stay either. I'm going to my uncles wedding on the Friday so I'll be getting a lateish train to London so I don't know if I'll actually be able to meet up with anyone :/

    I was on AA, Google Maps and Google Earth earlier planning the route to my hotel and things haha. I tend to go over the top with these things so i'll have 10 different lots of maps to make sure :D
    http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=182334025151306 if that works. There's normally some problems on posting links on here haha.

    Just at the Premier Inn, i used the distance ruler on Google Earth and it's 0.7 miles to Disney HQ which looks really close to the Hammersmith tube stop. I'm really annoying on things like this haha. I've used the tube before but i've always just followed my dad so i'll be stood at the tube map thing for ages trying to find the place. I know i need to be on the Picadilly line though. I sound crazy with the amount of planning i've done haha. But the tube isn't too complicated if you just take time to look at it i should think :)

    Okay so just to throw a spanner in the works (but it's good to know!!)... seen as our interviews are on the Saturday, the Disney HQ front door MAY not be open! I had my last ICP interview on a Saturday there and we all ended up waiting outside because we didn't know how to get in!

    So - if the door is locked at the front then you just need to walk around to the back of the building... the back entrance is right by the bus station (if you look on Google maps you can see the buses!)... but I'm sure it will all be fine! Just in case so you don't panic!

    And also, a really useful website if you don't know the underground is to use www.tfl.gov.uk :D
