[hectic]

[Beatle]

okay - I will be arriving @ London Heathrow on Saturday, June 10 , at 5.05 pm

If anybody else gets in at the same airport around the same time - we could make the ride to the castle together…

[Giles]

Shoque is arriving a couple of hours before you. so will hang around for you…G

[Beatle]

Beats, I am going to try to get in right around your time. Still need to purchase the tix but will do so this week. So excited! G, unfortunately my girl will not be making it out with me but please reserve somewhere for me to lay my head the same amount of time as Beats. Gracias!!!

[Beatle]

Yes..I will be waiting for you at the airport,..If I'm not mistaken, flights from SFO would get in around the late afternoon - so this should work perfect

[Giles]

Just remember that Shoque gets in a few hours before you Beats, don't want him hanging around for ever…G

Two things:  Will (would) you ask Will from Aero if he can make some heavy horse hide pants in a 40" inseam?  Also, I see on his web pages that some of the Lee Japan models have double-felled seams.  These were the jeans of my youth in the 50s.  Would you see if Haraki is up for some 634s with them?  I understand the whole "selvage" lure, but they are the most bullet-proof in and out seams around.  Back to the mandolin for me…Asp

[Giles]

Cosmo,  Hi there. 1) I have asked the question of Will.  2) I will pop the question to H at some point.  G

[SimonQ.]

Hm,

anybody from Germany (maybe Munich) starting?
Not sure if there is still some place for me to show up but I´am seriously considering it

[Giles]

Simon,  From your part of the world, we have people coming from Vienna, Zurich, Berlin and Chemnitz.  We have run out of rooms here, but Paula and I are visiting local hotels to suss them out this weekend.  Best airport is Southampton, next best Gatwick, 3rd best Heathrow.  I am picking a bunch of people up from Heathrow on Sat PM, but my car is now full.  I guess if loads more will arrive around the same time, I can organise a mini bus.  I am returning a couple of people to Heathrow Monday morning, so theer is space in the car for that trip.  G

Hi Giles,
I'm hoping to come to the party - just sorting out transport…pencil me in please.
Also any info on nearby B&Bs would be great, thanks.

[Giles]

PLEASE come, it will be a blast, Mrs G will sort you out.  Can you drop her an email at paula@ironheart.co.uk.

We'll do whatever we can to make transport (at least this end) a snap…G

[hectic]

G, is your garden big enough for a tent? H

[slowdownarthur]

Thanks Giles - emailed Paula

[Simon]

within 1/4 mile of Giles's place I can recommend The Crew house for cheap clean self catering quality accommodation http://www.crew-houses.co.uk/. Or the closest but a little tired, The Spring Garden B&B http://www.bedandbreakfastsguide.com/displays/Spring-Garden-Guest-House-1803.aspx
If you want to spend a little more then http://www.angleseyhotel.co.uk/ is pretty good 2 miles away. If budget is no issue then http://www.alverbankhotel.co.uk/ is beautiful, also 2 miles. If you like shopping and night life then The Holiday Inn Express Gunwharf is your best bet, 1 mile + a short ferry trip.

Need a lift from the train station or Southampton Airport PM me.
