You'll be staying with us (as in the people who live in Alphen a/d Rijn). We thought you would prefer floorspace over paying for a hotel

People shouldn't take me so seriously.

I'm happy with floorspace, I just didn't know where we slept.
And don't worry Mina, I don't take you seriously.

I'm more then happy for Xanatic to share de Zolder with Bossel if that is ok... we actually have off-floor facilities for them both!
It is a fair sized space so you won't have to be on top of each other
Pierce 
already baggsied the spare bedroom ages ago and he is over for 4 nights! 
True about the phone Mina... but a text message shouldn't cost much once you are this side of the Channel should it? I am not really sure!No worries anyway

Eeeh, who is Zolder and what is Bossel?
I really need to learn more dutch.

I thought text messages were the same price, but after sending about 3 or 4 from Paris and having £1.60 put on my bill for 'calls made abroad' for the next 3 months I'm not so sure.
I'm quite happy to do it, but I know people that have got caught out by making phone calls abroad.
PS If I;d known youhad a spare room I'd have fought Pierce for it!

Panic not Xanatic!
De Zolder is what we call the attic... but it is more like a loft conversion type of room
A 'Bossel' is our German friend who is also coming to the Meet and arriving on Friday.
Do you need to know which bus stop to dismount from? Over to Kheldar for that info I think! 
Mina... It only has a single bed!
I think, if you are worried about call charges then leave it that if we don't hear from you we assume that the flight is on time
I think the idea for meeting you is that we get the train from Amsterdam and meet you on the platform at Schiphol? Perhaps Kheldar can confirm this?

Yeah, it would be good if you could tell me which busstop. And perhaps if it happens to be right after a big castle or so. Adn the attic sounds okay. Don't know about germans though, I already share my house with three of them

Shazz is right - that *was* a simulpost. Trust me!

Monsignore Pizzafunghi Bosselese Posted Oct 19, 2001
So I gather I won't need to carry along a sleeping bag then?
A thing called Bossel

Excellent news Peta!!!

Monsignore Pizzafunghi Bosselese Posted Oct 19, 2001
indeed! Glad to meet the not-so-bold Italics again

Peta Posted Oct 19, 2001
We'll be leaving our bolds at home in the office. The italic bit might come into play though 
(Think diagonal walking and you'll be on the right track...)
It'll be good to meet you again too Bossel!

Monsignore Pizzafunghi Bosselese Posted Oct 19, 2001
I remember to have been surprised that the Italics were standing upright, even after leaving the pub...

I thought they were moderate drinkers to say the least.
PS, I want to go to the sex museum on Sunday before I fly home - for research purposes only of course - is it likely to be open?
