FWIW I am in the process of canceling my flights owing to life being a bit too much right now, so there will be a couple of row 1 seats on the 12:35 on Thursday and on the later Sunday flight that should become available by sometime Monday - my target for being arsed to clean this up. Shame to miss this, I am in full on cancel mode right now, but it would have been great to be there.

As I am printing name badges for everyone can I ask that anyone attending make sure that you have been added to the attendee list in the wiki. I will be using that to print off the badges. If you can't or don't want to edit the wiki yourself then either post here or send me a private message and I will gladly do it for you

I will be taking a copy of the attendee list from the wiki on Monday morning. If your name is not on the list at that time then not to worry. I will have spare blank badges with me so just ask but it would be good to get as many printed as possible.

I will be making badges available for collection in the HIX bar at 1700hrs. See you there

For those interested in Bianca and don't have a reservation yet, should I try to get a reservation for another small group?

I have now made a booking for 5 at the Sunborn Yacht (Barbary Restaurant) at 8pm.
@DeathSlam and @LPQ can you please let me know if you plan on joining @cistavoda and myself (+ my other half)? I can always amend the booking if you want to go eat somewhere else.

Thanks Florens. I think I'm likely to skip dinner on the Saturday. If anyone fancies eating something on the Sunday, pm me.

BA0490 1235 Friday 22nd

Hi, for the early birds flying out on Friday lunchtime, as I am now staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Hatten Cross on the Thursday night and just moving my car across to the Short Stay at T3 in the morning, I plan to get to the CX Lounge by 0930 am.

See you all there.

I'll be there from about 9am. Staying in the Premier Inn T4 Thursday night.

We are planning an unofficial "official" launch of the do Badges in the lounge before the flight. Anyone who can get to the CX J lounge and fancies toasting the Badges and unofficial start of the do are all most welcome. There will be photos and bubbly!

I want to thank LPQ for helping with the badges. As you know, I am currently going Round the World on a bit of a TP run (currently in Delhi!) and didn't want to drag them round with me so LPQ kindly volunteered to bring them to the do if I sent them by post to him so that is what I have done. What a team effort!
