| QMU Jailbreak for Comic Relief 2009 Nine teams of people from the QM are attempting to get as far away from the union in 48 hours armed only with their charm.
According to their twitter feed, within two and a half hours two of the teams have managed to blag their way onto trains to Newcastle and Manchester, while the rest seem to be in Edinburgh. Not a bad start!
Follow them here: http://twitter.com/Jailbreak09
Should be interesting to see where they end up! |

Not sure I would want to sit on a fishing boat for long though...
Some now on a train to London, others on their way to Edinburgh Airport. Quote:

| Re: QMU Jailbreak for Comic Relief 2009 I would be amazing at this. I would just get damaged women to pay for pizza and a flight to foreign climes. I've been training my whole life for it.
WAIT. Are they just saying 'Let me travel for free, it's for comic relief!'? Cos that's cheating. They should have to actually sneak or seduce their way onto the train.

Could be wrong, on my phone so can't check, but I'd guess there's more Britain north of Glasgow than south (length, not area).

| Re: QMU Jailbreak for Comic Relief 2009 Nah, south of England's further than the north of Scotland. But not by a great deal.
