You've got to get your first tackle in early, even if it's late.

It's a decent wee dander from memory, but fortunately the Thomas a Beckett is en route - I'm thinking 3 hours should do it. >drink1

The Thomas a Beckett is on the way. Definitely walkable. In my memory it's about half a mile from the train station - so as BR says 3 hours should do it. >drink1

Could someone do me a link to a wee A4 size map of Northampton that i could print out preferably showing train station, the Ibis, any Weatherspoons, the Wig & Pen, The Thomas Beckett and the Stadium itself. Have done it all before but cant really remember much.
Thanks

ps i do vaguely recall a slightly tipsy breakfast the morning after the last visit - in what i think was a decent Weatherspoons within spitting distance of the Ibis - and beside a Kebab place.

Just a heads-up to those travelling ex-Belfast on the day.

Hillary Clinton is visiting Belfast next Friday, dunno her itinerary or which airport she'll arrive at but there's considerable potential for a load of auld bellix round the terminals/approaches if you're anywhere close to her arrival time.

Surely rather than a heads up, anyone anywhere near her should keep their heads down just in case she comes under bomb or gun attack again :shock:
