Arrivals and Departures

Malabarista - now with added pony

Here's a handy place to list who's coming when - and knowing my fellow hootooers, topic drift will, of course, be minimal smiley - whistle

These are the times I know:

Trillian's Child arrives at 11.44 Saturday at D'dorf main station.

B'Elana arrives at 11.15 Saturday at D'dorf main station.

Pierce the Pirate doesn't land at Düsseldorf airport until 15.35, so we probably won't hang around at the station waiting for him. smiley - sorry

Same goes for King Bomba, who will get here a few weeks later smiley - winkeye


Did I miss anyone who's already posted?

Yes, you missed RF and RemarkableFirefly who'll land at Ddorf airport at around 10 am if memory serves me right.

Sho - employed again!

So we'll pick up B'El at the station and hang around until they're all there (except the smiley - pirate and KB - much as I love him, a few weeks at the Dus hauptbahnhof doesn't fill me with joy smiley - winkeye)

You can call me TC

Before we all get into a muddle or end up posting the same information in 6 different threads, I would like to nominate this thread, with its official-sounding title, for the single thread to post to for arrangements.

Individual bed arrangements with Malabarista and Matodemi can carry on where they were, of course, but when it comes to meeting up together and coordinating things, can we just keep it here?

Thank you.

Perhaps we could have a long-drawn-out lunch (there's always loads to chinwag about) somewhere cosy near the station so we don't have to go back too far to meet the smiley - pirate
