I'm currently in the process of booking for Oxonmoot and have looked back for information on this thread. A couple of questions for you helpful Brits:

Does anyone have an idea how long it takes to get from Oxford to Stanstead Airport? Would that be doable within Sunday afternoon, or cutting it too close timewise? Perhaps it would be better to stay a night and go on Monday.

Friday evening's dinner seems rather expensive - is it worth it? Is that the place to meet lots of people already, or do most skip it?

More questions as they come up...
