October 31st?

Anybody fancy doing a few circuits on a broomstick - or maybe just having a mini-bash in Gatwick?

Sorry - clashes with the Cosford picnic. :(
Can't you make it a different night?
...like the 25th?

Can't make it to Cosford - so I could do both the 25th and Halloween.

Anybody else fancy either of them - or do I get a solo hug with AerBabe?

Love to come, but getting very close to exam time for me - will see how I'm doing and report back nearer the time.

Damn these exams, seriously affecting my drinking life!! (Although some would say that is a good thing) :}

Sounds like a plan to me! Who knows - I might even be able to offer my spare room to some fellow PPRuNers if I've cleared the junk out by then!

Cheers,

MD.

I've just confirmed the AerBabeless 31st.

Gatwick Moat House Hotel.
Longbridge Roundabout
Gatwick Horley
Gatwick, RH6 0AB

There is a bar and restaurant open to non-residents (and the local 24 hour Tesco for a packet of meat pies at 2am).

Found a room rate (through www.orbitz.com ) of £30 per night for a double room with breakfast for two. No dinner included this year. (Orbitz does require a USA based credit card - do a search with local cheap ticket agencies).

Still working on the 25th. See ya'll there?

Still planning Halloween.

Usual table (hopefully) opposite the elevators/lifts* (*delete as applicable) - 1st floor, near the bar.

STRANGE HOW THINGS SUDDENLY CHANGE!!

Had two hours to go to check-in for the Eastbound flight when a local emergency caused me to cancel the entire trip.

'Fraid I won't be in the U.K. after all.

If anybody still wants to go - let me know how it went.

Re-booking for January.

:( Hope all is well over there mate.

I was going to turn up for a swift one or two and go early as I have an early start the next day so wont bother now.

Yeah - all OK again - just taught me not to trust people (again).

Looking more like Friday January 16th now.
