Poor @KARFA and @LondonAndy have a few gatecrashers

@LondonAndy's quiet weekend in Sofia (SOF).

EW9912 12:55-16:30 Cymro

Optional walking tour - needs advance reservation: It is possible to have a private tour through 365association.com (https://freesofiatour.com/). They will meet us at the Hilton at c. 15.00 (to allow for slight delays) on Saturday and will give a 2.5hr tour for an all-in cost of €130/BGN260. I'd suggest that if there are 10 or more committed to splitting the cost then I'll book. Please put your name below if you are interested:

I’ll need to fly to LHR and overnight to make the 890. Should BA reimburse hotel and dinner or is it on me?

Dropping out of Sofia, it's just a little bit too much trouble to get up to LHR for 0810, and the thought of suffering @teledude's smug grin from 1A as I start the long walk of shame back to row 5 is too much to contemplate.

I've substituted with another ex-Jer to Tirana on the 29th/1st which nets me 240 TP including positioning and allowed me to use a couple of e-vouchers. I'll probably have a look at Sofia another time. Still on for the Tirana do weekend though. Wiki updated.

Dropped out of both I am afraid. Buying a new house so money has to go on that. I hope you all have a great time.

Shame I won't get the chance to meet you, Snaxmuppet - hope to catch you at another do or an FT party. Best of luck with the house purchase - hope it goes smoothly!

Maybe an opportunity for a house warming mini-do!

I guess I should keep quiet in 4F

Just spotted I was seat-less on Sunday's 891... 5A is the first available. All the GGLs stole the rest I guess?
