May is still a possibility - and I can travel anywhere - so watching and waiting! Air Berlin @29 Euros sounds good!

Walter, I'm having second thoughts about flying from your home town to London....
A "double-ticket" isn't cheaper, but would be fun to join you :wink:
Walter, I guess I will check for flights from Stuttgart. This does not look safe!
I think this kind of excitement will be too much for my old body. LOL
I know Gautam is very busy with his new job, but you other Brits need to help us with setting up some venues and dates. Also, Walter, please give us dates for your home town gathering. I want to tie in some group travel during the same month/period, and I like to make my reservations early while they're not fully booked. How about it, people? If we don't get info, I'm going ahead with my own plans.

That's okay with me :wink:
Thanks, Walter, for your quick respons.
The venue will depend mostly on the number of people who are attending.
We will probably be much better off hiring a private room and most of the good places offer one.
I suggest that we go for a lebanese cuisine this time. I know of a very beautiful place serving the absolutely amazing food, with belly dancers and a private room.

This sounds absolutely spiffing, the prince. Bellys and privates, sounds interesting.
Do I have to change my name now? I could be Lochinvar or Braveheart, or Chicken Liver.

In tribute to Frank Zappa, I'll be Sheik Yaboudi
I think, I keep my old name from the times, when I visited Lebanon during the crusades:
Sir Walter, Count of Lilyway, Defender of Small Ships etc etc pp
prince, Change of name too? LOL Belly dancers and a private room sounds ideal (where sound doesn't bounce all over tarnation). Which weekend are you considering?
I thought that, as Diane and Dys were also planning to be somewhere, we should wait for their itibnerary - unless you can come to some agreement between you.
When you decide on a date / time, I'll either be there or not!
Diane gave some kind of window earlier in this thread...

That's what I always was referring at ...
... up and away to a "North-of-England-mini-gathering" in a couple of minutes :wink:
I'll drop dys and Diane an email to see if they've developed a draft of an itinerary to get this thing off the ground. All we need right now are "estimated dates."
ok already, but just a basic flexible outline with requests for anyone along the line to make suggestions. arrive on/about may 1 london, 2 nights london then chunnel to amsterdam for another 2 nights then train to see walter another 2 nights then on to see bigdice/urs and then on to Vienna to see Ul and then train to Barcelona and flight home.
