Game on. ^

First post will be updated as we move along. Not exactly the moment for me to collate inputs so far, but thank you pinkcat for the nudge. Give me a day or so.

I can probably put in a repeat appearance. Might even not have to fly back same day this time, which means I will need a cheap & cheerful hotel. Any recommendations?

To refresh everybody's memory, here are a couple of pics from last year. Party in the LGW Flounge:

Yaaay ... And cheap cheerful seems to be the Hampshire. Can't remember who stayed there last time, and I'm not getting up to find out, but it's OK.

I will have to trawl to find the local folks. They were a bit non-involved last time, which is a bit sad. However, one other resident gave us a lift down, which was really nice!

Saw this on the avios.com site, couldn't find the deal they were talking about when searching though, maybe you have to phone up?

Doh, travelling back from LAS that night, so unless things change (might do avios booking+241) I can't make it, sorry T8191 I can't give you a lift down.

I would have said yes, but forgot that the LGW-MAN route finishes on 30th March (), therefore I would have to do the LHR-LGW shuffle, which have always tried to avoid....

Let me try talk myself into it...

I can walk it in 15 minutes at my age!
Damn, you were one of the residents I wanted to meet! Sad Face.

Would like to come but I have a review at work around that time so not 100%, however I might be able to tag it in with this for the onward work commitment.

What flight over on the Saturday would be the party one? then as soon as I know what's happening with the day job I can commit and book. The Radisson was showing at £83.

It's an evolving thing. We/obviously have to go firm on a date. So that's where we are.

I doubt a Party Plane is going to
happen on a 30-40 minute sector from LGW (the only decent way we can get to/from UK, in case anyone from Waterside is reading). Keep tracking this thread.
