Please does anyone know if it'll be possible to get to Merthyr Mawr from the Cynon Valley on public transport...?

According to my timetable, there are no trains leaving the Cynon Valley before ten o'clock on a Sunday morning, so the odds of getting to Merthyr Mawr in time for the moot are very slim.

I'll be there, Where is Merthyr Mawr :confused:

Merthyr Mawr is just South of Bridgend. There is a link to a map on the BCUK site that shows the location but I can't seem to find it at the moment.

The meeting point is at grid ref SS872773
 
No problem Nigel.

I'll put another post up today hopefully about the day. Got to go & do some work now!
 
If your'e planning on coming to the meet this Sunday here are a few things that may be useful to bring along.

Measuring tape - builders type will be fine
Notebook, pencil etc
Lunch and hot drink - there are no pubs / cafe nearby
Camera
Tracking stick if you have one - if you haven't don't worry its not vital
Waterproofs / warm clothing - we may have access to some shelter if it rains but this isn't confirmed.
Sense of humour / fun
