h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well, it *is* true

No argument here.


az

hey, Malabarista!

interested in the German meet?

(sorry Az, I haven't seen her in ages)

Interested, yes - but whether I'll be able to go is quite another matter.

oh ok
well there's plenty of time... who knows what will happen

When exactly is it?

Tuesday 18th April

you can read about it here: A8232202

Ah, ok, thanks - maybe.

Malabrista - there are people flying in specially. None of us can back out now.

I was just reading an article about 'tapas' today - hadn't realised that Seville is the Home of Tapas.

I fully expect to fly home from Spain about 4 kilos heavier than when I arrived

ps - thanks for those links Az

My chances are waning, Az - (a) of getting a cheap flight and (b) of persuading my husband to let me go. He probably wouldn't say "no" but he has said we ought to cut down spending a bit.



Hmm


Oh s*d it. I'll have another look at flights in the morning. Too late now - I'm going to bed.

Back out of what, TC?

Hi Malabrista - I meant : The German Meet. When people are booking flights and hotels, the locals (B'Elana, Sho, you, me) should be well represented.

Is there an entry anywhere for this Seville Orange or does it all exist in conversations?

Ah, of course. Makes sense. But I never fronted in yet, so I can't back out

Well, it started off here in my journal back in August with Noggin and me thinking it might be nice to have a mini meet in Seville. So it's not really any sort of h2g2 *official meet entry* or anything like that. In fact, it's not even an *unofficial meet*. Which was why we chose not to 'advertise' it in when Titania offered us that option - mostly because we didn't want it turning into something big and impersonal.

So this is the only thread about it, in terms of 'signing up'.

Anyhow, here is the list so far . . .

Confirmed:
Teutcher & Mr T
Ben & Z
MoG
Lucky & Dai
blickybadger

Possible:
Blues and SLG
Alfster
Kerr & Bruce
Ferrettbadger
Matholwch & wife
zoomer
Bagpuss
Titiana
Sho
Trillian's Child

I've *finally* booked the London/Seville leg of my Adventure. So glad that's all done now. *whew*

Wed 22 Mar
LHR 11:10-->Seville 14:50 British Airways Flight 7087

Tue 28 Mar
Seville 10:40--> LGW 12:15 British Airways Flight 6973

What's the best way to get from the airport to your place, az?

hi Az
sorry, this time I'm a definite "no"

That's too bad, Sho!


MoG, there is an airport bus but for some weird reason it doesn't run between 2-5pm, otherwise I'd meet you at the airport. So I guess the only other option is a taxi. Anyhow, you already know my address but I'll email you some extra instructions so that the of a taxi driver doesn't 'accidently get lost'.

Wow, just about six more weeks to go!


az

Wow indeed!

I've got my CD and booklet from this weekend's Independent in order to get a crash course in Spanish

Buenos tardes. Qué tal?

As I've mentioned, my attending depends on me selling my condo in time. So far I've got the fireplace, mirrors and lights all done but I still have the counters and plumbing to finish!



Wish me well and a willing buyer.
