This will be upon us before we know it... lets get a roll call going and start sharing where everyone is staying on Saturday Night. I see that Mon Cal Con is back on the night of the 9th, so I expect a lot of folk will be staying over.
Plastikheld said:This time I would like to join the community. As I'm located in Germany, I don't really know how to get from Heathrow to Fordingbridge. What would you guys recommend - by bus or by train? Also any recommendation for a room there? Any help or advices would be appreciated.
I live in a small village between Cologne and Düsseldorf - so I have two airports to fly from. But I think, flights to Gatewick might be more expensive, but I have to check it out. You think it might be easier from there to get to Fordingbridge?Mr-shifter said:Where abouts in Deutschland are you? Can you get to Gatwick?

What a great offer, but I did not want to make any efforts on somebody else. It would be unpleasant fo me if anybody has to plan his time on my schedule. Whe did you plan to drive to Fordingbridge?Mr-shifter said:Depends on what days you fly in on. I could possibly offer you a lift.

Don't worry- the last FF I was the first to bed and at Echo Base I was the one stopping the fights. Can be good boy.

Fordingbridge is a tiny village in the middle of no where, except David Tree's shop. :lol: Getting there with public transport is tricky, check with Jason Smith as he often takes public transport from London. If you can get a lift that would make your life easier. Good luck!

I will try to arrive on Saturday morning (to join the community on saturday night for a couple of beers) and leave on sunday in the evening at the airport.
Plastikheld said:Wow guys - thank you so much for your support on getting me to FF.
@ Jason: thank for figuring out you route, but 3 hours (when everything works) in addition to flight time and getting from here to there might be a bit to much time at all. Spending this time I can also think of driving by car and take a ferry (which I wanted to avoid).
@ Mr-shifter: a pick-up would be great, but flights from here to Gatwick are rare and expensive. Might be easier for me getting an early flight to LHR and then taking a bus (megabus?) to Gatwick. What do you think? Might this be an option?
Do you return on sunday? So I would try to get a light flight back.
To be honest I thought it would be easier getting there, but I like those kind of trips.
