I am tired because at first I thought you wrote something else.
And I will be judging/scrambling as much as I can (if I can actually make it to the UK).
PS: Somebody mind e-stabbing Arnaud in the eye for not replying to my PM
?

Arnaud minds him getting stabbed!
I still need to plan my trip. I will do that this week. http://www.bmibaby.com was a tip I got from my ex yesterday. (I made a little fun of her because she pronounced it like "be my baby"
)

i am surprised you are not coming by car, very unarnaud. i can barely imagine you on a plane... oh no.. wait... i can... in the middle of spain with only hitchhiking to save you from missing EC.
you might want to also look at easyjet amsterdam-bristol (oliver is arriving at bristol also on friday and it also means travelling from there you won't be affected by the train construction works between london and swindon) and KLM have the same route sometimes not even that expensive (you also get sandwiches)! there is also a line opening from eindhoven to bristol with ryan air but i'm not sure that's open yet. bmi is a bit more expensive from previous dutch adventure experiences.

I had lots of plane-adventures as well. But with the exception of the "Erik+Arnaud to Sweden + 'sleep' at airport" and the "Joel and Arnaud to EC missing both planes but getting picked up by two Belgian girls" I have always done that without other cubers.

ORrrr you could eurostar with lars... there's a plan and a half if i ever saw one! my current concern is how oliver will move around in my house without hitting his head. he is so tall and my house couldn't be suited more to my height.
EDIT: he can stand in the chimney all weekend.

The Oliver problem has been solved. He had his legs physically removed and had this feet attached to his hands. He did this so he could break the "with feet" WR without even training. He is now 2 cm shorter than you are
Also, Car + Train to UK is still a big option. I would like to experience driving on THAT side of the road as well

You mean on the right side of the road?

yes, the right side of the road. adam is bringing his car but there are still too many of us to all fit in that at my place, so it would be good if you brought yours too... that way we can go on adventures without having to worry about crappy english bus services...

It just occured to me (and I'm going to sound ridiculously english), but are there any facilities for making a good cup of tea?
If not I guess I'll just bring a thermos flask for the saturday...

well, i have investigation catering options for sandwiches and such to be provided, but the cost is astronomical and it's just stupid when there is a supermarket around the corner. the plan is to provide a lot of varied snacks and drinks, and as part of that i'm sure we can just set up a kettle with some water and then some mugs or something so that tea and coffee can be made...

At the moment it looks like I am really out of options, as I have to work until Friday 4 pm, and have to start Monday at 9 am again. Plane is my only option I guess.
If anyone knows any way to arrange this, let me know.

I've just booked the travelodge for Saturday 11th and they told me it was the last room available. Just thought I'd post here in case anyone hasn't booked accommodation yet. It will still be worth calling them as there may be different types of rooms or cancellations.
Also can you put me down for mystery event as I forgot to put it on my registration.

Is that an agreement to be used as a offering to the Rubik's God?

Actually, could you put me down for FMC please Charlie. Considering my recent success at home I think it would be worthwhile
