I can get a flight in for the afternoon so I'd miss out on any planned activities too

That was just an idea, we don't really need to have an afternoon activity - I'll rather spend the afternoon at the airport to fetch you all

Aw!

In that case we'd better co-ordinate something - and I'll have to book a flight

I can only get 2 days off - tuesday and Wednesday.

Depending on finances, I will either stay over on Tuesday night, or get the last train.

Freddy - you're welcome to come & use my place to sleep - but it's far from anywhere except by train, and I'd be at work ... but you're welcome.

Sho, depending on how many people will come from the UK, you'll be welcome to stay with us over night.

OK, here's a thought...as we UKers will be flying in on Tuesday afternoon:

We go out on Tuesday evening, then have a daytime activity on Wednesday?

I know that I, for one, would like to spend more than just an evening in the company of the German Researchers!

RF

Sounds like a pretty good plan, that

Does that mean we'll have to be relatively hangover-free on the Wednesday?

So that's three definate from the UK then ? And MMF will try to come,too.

"Relatively"...yes.

But it's OK, German beer doesn't give you a hangover.

RF

Depends on how early we'll have to get up, doesn't it ? I'd love to go up the Maintower on Wednesday, haven't been there myself for ages, must call and ask about the costs. ( They raised the price for the lift up there for about 100% after 11th.Sept.

Why, what happened on 11 September?

11 September 2001?

I asked my (now ex-)wife to marry me.

RF

I would have put 2001 had I remembered it I can remember the day and the month, but not the year. We had a parents meeting ( going out for a or two) that evening.

I'm up for a Tuesday evening / Wednesday daytime combo

I have a link for the maintower, tell me what you think about it :http://www.maintower.de/hlb/generator/Sites/Maintower/wwwroot/hpMaintower.en.html

Ooh! Can we go to the restaurant?

RF

ho jus! we have to do that! But we'll have to reserve in plenty of time, it's going to be a major attraction at that time.

Yes, we can. I've been there when it was really new ( a week or so), had breakfast (late)there with my friend, it was fantastic, but expensive

Don't think we'd have problems for breakfast, now lunch would be a different kettle of fish, all the yuppies coming there for lunch
