baratronAARRGHH!! I'm such an idiot!
There's this 'event' going on in the UK at the moment where you can finally download the rare Pokemon Mew onto a Game Boy Advance cartridge. You have to visit a random Toys'R'Us somewhere in the country with... a Game Boy Advance (not DS) and the cartridge/s. (Personally, I have Sapphire, Ruby, Fire Red, Leaf Green and Emerald, so I hope I'll get 5 Mews.)
Because I am a moron and this information dropped out of my head, the times when it's near me (Reading, Croydon & Brent Cross) are this weekend from Friday-Sunday - when I will be in Brussels.
Because I'm not just a moron but also disorganised, I just found out that it was in Cardiff last Saturday - 20 minutes by train from where I was staying for BiCon! AAAAARRRRGHHH!!!
Now I have to find out where the hell the Toys'R'Us in Oxford is, and whether getting there on Thursday is practical, considering I have work in New Malden at 5pm.

Date: 2007-08-22 04:11 pm (UTC)basically turn right out of the train station and ride down the botley road and it on the right hand side, past the pc world, and past the curry's, you will see it large as life from the road way. I'm afraid my car will be heading towards swindon in the morning but we could/should be back by early afternoon i think

if you look at this hybrid map the train station is on the far right (you'll arrive on platform 2 on the left side of the station in the map) and the toys'r'us is on the far left of the map. its the last warehouse with a white top on the bottom half of the map before you get to the warehouse with the blue roof.
I hope that helps
