*bump*
Last chance to enter this one cheap is NOW. Please tell me by tomorrow lunchtime if you'd like me to register you for 30 EUR, its going to be 40 thereafter.
Looking at the current numbers, this could well be the last chance to do this fantastic race  |

Which flights? I haven't booked yet and need to do so ASAP. Ryan Air don't fly there. Air Berlin are quoting £206, which I can't afford, and BA just stopped flying there. BMI is even more than Air Berlin.
Can do it on Air Berlin for £101 if I fly out Thursday morning and back on Monday eve but then parking charges rise to nearly £40
Thinking about driving again. Might go to Groningen for the FFS beforehand and break the outward journey. It's a holiday on the monday can also break it coming back. Ferry cost £49. Current cost of Diesel in Germany about 78p/ltr. car does just under 10mile/ltr total drive is about 1,000 miles. Green Card cost £26.25 total. Total cost £150-160. Anyone want to split that with me? You'll need to take off the Friday. Or we could do it without taking off the Friday and miss Groningen for about the same price, maybe a bit less driving.

| SleazyJet option is now £130 and I have to get to/from Luton so driving is still a good bet just for one. Two and were looking at cheap two more and it's super cheap. |

| Germanwings to Hamburg could also be an option, train cost would be the about the same. |

Sorry, I was insufficently definite. I can confirm. And Groningen sounds good (I guess I'm not making much of a pretence at tapering for this one) |

| Rich is up for it too so we are three in the car. I don't think he can make Groningen on the way out as he needs to save his leave but we can call in there on the way back and skate with the guys and miss out on the FFS. I'll book the ferry tomorrow when I've had a little sleep. |

Ferry booked. I haven't booked the hostel yet. Might see what others do but I recommend the hostel I listed above.
Couldn't get any ferries after 10pm Friday or before 4pm Saturday so the LFNS will be out that day now.
Leaving 10pm coming back on Monday at 8pm |

I'm going to book Rick's Recommended Hostel this afternoon. Who else wants in? Choice of 4-bed mixed dorm or 12 bed mixed dorm - I guess it depends if there are 4 or 12 of us
Rick, 3 nights Fri-Sun? |

2 nights Saturday and Sunday. We'll be on the road Friday night.
If you can book me in and Rich too that would be great. You only pay a small deposit now and cash for the rest when we arrive. |
