Meeting in Holland, 25-26/11

[Paddy_NL]

Hello mate

You got it just about right there, the only thing you're missing out is we have booked a complete floor in the local ribs restaurant

On Sunday we'll arrange a proper breakfast, with asperines et all...

We're looking at a gathering for 14.00 the latest on Saturday to make it to the go-karts on time, so that might be pushing it a bit for you. If you're going to Dunkirk you can easily count the time left once on the continent. Calais - Rotterdam is only a four hour drive (I've done it in 2Ύ on a bike once, but that isn't recommendable ).

Alternatively you could leave on the Friday and drive up to Rotterdam the same night. We already have quite a few people coming over to help setting things up, and will most probably all stay in the office on that Friday night as well.
The only thing which might set you back is the journey itself after a full days work

It would be very nice if you could make it

[il Cavallino]

And not to forget, the English people arriving on friday woll be going into Rotterdam. If the plan doesn't change but I believe they are in for that so probably not.

[Paddy_NL]

Robbo, would it be an idea to hitch a ride with JPC and Robspot?

[Robbo SPS]

all change.....

"  phil, i have adjusted your rota on 25th november to a 1600 - 0300 shift to assist with the safer neighbourhoods event, you rest day will be re-allocated "


basically - i'm working now, so wont be able to attend.

Anyone for a ferry ticket......

Refunds not permissable... Was only £36 though.

[Robspot]

Finally I've got my arse into gear and booked my flights. I'm joining Team Zarse so I've left myself at their mercy  . We arrive after the karting but still in plenty of time for a shandy.

Hoo-bloody-ray

Top man.
Does this mean you won't be going to Dover Street then? 

[Robspot]

Yes Mr Brown I'm afraid it does. However, Dover Street will always be there. The chances of my wife sanctioning a surreptitious trip to Amsterdam via Rotterdam are very remote so I shall make the most of it.

Also I can't turn down the chance to see the DfH crew as you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer bunch of people to spend the weekend with 

[LangTall]

I'll take that as a compliment then robspot.

But good to hear you'll join us too!!

[Paddy_NL]

A shame you can't make it, Phil

[Paddy_NL]

Small update:

• The go-kart centre we originally planned looks too crowded, so Dirk3D is looking for an alternative.

• I have ordered the DVD from LeMansGod, and together with the LMS '06 review (recorded from Motors tonight) it will be shown on a few televisions when we come back from the restaurant.

==================
It's about time for the people who are on the "doubt-list" to tell me if they are still coming.
I also need to know who will require sleeping gear. We can arrange beds and sleeping bags.
Please let me know via PM or in this topic.

Cheers, Patrick

I'll bring my own sleeping bag, you just point me to the correct floor.

[Steve Pyro]

I'll bring my own sleeping bag, you just point me to the correct floor.

Bob, your bed will be where you fall over 

Paddy, I'll bring my sleeping bag, thanks for the offer.

You've got that quite right Steve.

[Doris]

Take me off the "doubt list" and put me down as a definite.  Flights are booked!

[Bob U]

Good on ya Doris
