View Full Version : HHN Summer Meetup '06

Yes folks that's right, the HHN meetup is now being planned.

Why now you ask?

1 - So we can save up enough money for us all to go.
2 - Location to choose.
3 - So we make these plans well ahead of time and know if anything is going to come up.

Okay well I've been talking to a few people, and I and another person really wanted to go to a beach area, we were going to suggest Scotland, or somewhere very down South.

2 people suggested a theme park such as Alton Towers. I didn't think Alton Towers would be a good idea because the Alton Towers hotel is quite expensive. The nearest place to stay after that is a B&B which I know will be packed or a campsite 3 - 5 miles away. Also Alton Towers itself is pretty out of the way in the country, I was hoping for something with easier access.

So I thought.. Blackpool!

It has a beach, large rides, nightlife, lots of places to stay, if we book ahead I'm sure we can find somewhere easily, so thats why I'm planning it now.

We may go to Blackpool, we may not, but I think it's worth looking into as it has a lot of things that may interest us.

Also I as hoping we do it right in the middle of summer, smack in the middle. Heres hoping we can make it between 3 - 5 days long!

If you want to suggest elsewhere then feel free to.

Well, I'd love to go to blackpool. Organise something and I'll be there :P

Lei
05-10-2005, 20:52
You know my opinion Grae..

But just for the record, I'm coming..And blackpool sounds good to me. ^_^ I'll definetly be there!

Where ever you guys go, have fun, and dont get into too much trouble.

Hrmm... I'd love to come, but I can't find any direct flights from Bournemouth Internatinal (my local airport) to Blackpool. If anyone can think of any viable root from Poole/Bournetmouth to Blackpool then tell meeee ; ; - It's something like a 6/7 hour train journey.

I might go pester my Dad to see how pliable it would be to fly me up to Blackpool Airport in his low wing Beech Sundowner, but it's quite a flight for a light aircraft, and my baggage would be limited xD


Just wondering if there might be the chance that my parents & little sister might go off on holiday without me next year, which always leaves the option of my house being empty for a couple of days - but then again I do live really far away from everyone else x_x

Grae
05-10-2005, 21:36
You have to come, you really reallyl have to come!!! ; ;
I'll come down and get the train with you if I have to.

Hideto
05-10-2005, 21:44
Could be cool, Blackpool aint my favourite place to go for a holiday but itll be fun anyway :D

Grae
05-10-2005, 21:51
It'll be better if you're 18 :D

Dr. Aeyze
05-10-2005, 21:52
weeell, just asked my Dad, it's about a 3 hour flight if my Dad takes me up in his syndicate plane - and I'm likeing the sound of 3 hours in the air in our plan more then 7 hours in a train - with changeovers (I'm like... the most insecure person ever when it comes to public transport - I'm constantly thinking I'm going the wrong way ; ; )

Dusk
05-10-2005, 21:57
Yeah, you know my opinion too. I'm hopefully gonna come, im gonna try my best and saaaave moooney

and aeyze, do you mean your not liking the idea or you prefer the plane to the train? >__>

Dr. Aeyze
05-10-2005, 22:08
I don't like going on the train on my own ; ; I get really insecure as to whether I'm going on the right train, right direction etc. I have like... zero faith in the public transport section when I'm travelling alone xD

Grae
05-10-2005, 22:11
we should get one of those engine electricity things and bring our guitars and amps and drumkits and lots of lights and have us a big midnight gig/beach party XD

Chris
05-10-2005, 22:14
Give me a complete price list, and I'll hop on the train with Kayleigh and the others from the North East who're coming.

But if it costs a lot, then... I might have to skip it, again... :(

Gah, need a job.

Tharrick
05-10-2005, 22:32
I'd bring my amp, only it's rather large. Well, if Brindley's coming again, I can hitch a lift with him again. If I can, I can bring my amp :D
If not, meh :(

Tsuji
06-10-2005, 08:20
It'll be better if you're 18 :D
And I WILL Be 18 by then :D XD Why though? =o XD

we should get one of those engine electricity things and bring our guitars and amps and drumkits and lots of lights and have us a big midnight gig/beach party XD
Yeah thats a class idea :D How will I go about transporting that though? o-o

And again, as my parents said, they wouldnt mind if I came to the next HHN meeting, so I'm gonna try to see if I can get something done as well for this =D Yeh-hay! =D

EDIT: OH! And I have to take on Auron-X in Halo 2 if we meet. XD Or anyone else whichever =P

Auron-X
06-10-2005, 08:31
OH DEFINATELY! Just raise enough money to get a planet ticket to Australia =P I'll even let you sleep... in my backyard! Watch out for my dog though, might give ya a licking or two, xD. Sounds fun, too bad it's like all the way in the UK lol.

Check around on cheap flights - there's bound to be some from Ireland to Blackpool I'm sure.

Yeah nevermind our posts, lol. Sydney? =D Sweet, where I live (well Sydney is like one big ass area, but the main part is the city part. I "technically" live in Sydney but i'm like 1 - 2 hour drive away from the actual city). Most likely you'll be in the city part right? Seeing the Harbour Bridge and Opera House xP.

Tharrick
06-10-2005, 10:22
engine electricity thing

Do you mean a generator?

Grae
06-10-2005, 14:53
yah teh thing j00 put teh petrawl in and it makes teh chuggidy chuggidy sound when you pull teh cord and it's got the shocky output thingys where yu plugs in teh woofers to make the loud NEENA NEENA NEE NOW sounds

Depu Techiikue
06-10-2005, 16:04
I'll go ahead and sticky this for you guys.

I'd love to come along, but unfortunately, I have a summer quarter. :(

One of the many disadvantages to going to a tech school that has you going only a couple days a week.

Bleh, but oh well, have fun all. :P

katie
07-10-2005, 14:36
i dont think i could get away with this again. i have no way of actually getting the money, and i dont think my parents would believe the ''theyre all friends of henders family'' again. they dont want me on forums, so a meet would make them flip. you'd think i'd have some independance by now, wouldnt you?

Grae
07-10-2005, 15:41
Completely unfair, you're old enough and wise (?) enough to make your own decisions.
I dislike clingy over-protective parents.

Lei
07-10-2005, 16:24
Well by the time the meetup happens Katie will be...er...17, right? Shame her parents wouldn't let her, she really is wise and independant enough to make up her own mind...Bleeehh.... And I thought, Katie, that you had a job...? *shrugs* Oh well..

So long as I don't get fired I'll definetly have the money. >.>

Chris
07-10-2005, 19:31
Well, good things come to those that wait, I have finally found a job! It's not all completely 'finalised' yet, but Mr Teoh (music teacher at my school) came up to me today and asked if I'd like to do Sound and Lighting at the Castle for the banquets, and HELL YES! £25 a NIGHT for 3 nights?!?!?! £75 a weekend?!?!! Y'DAMN RIGHT I WANNA DO IT.

So I might be able to come afterall... :D

Dale Anthony
07-10-2005, 22:58
Yeah...hmm...I dunno if I'll be heading on. lol. Dunno really...don't wanna land a day trip that gets my crotch killed again :D. (Don't get the wrong idea XD)

Grae
07-10-2005, 23:51
its not a day trip, well it can be if you want, but I'm planning on staying a few days and I hope many of you choose to do so as well.

Dusk
07-10-2005, 23:53
pfft, i wont go up there just for ONE day, what a waste..XD
I mean me and Lei have plans ..heh heh heh...XD

Grae
08-10-2005, 00:02
Dammit Akiko, I know you're like bisexual and all but do you have to rub it in my face ; ;

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 00:04
Oh...if it's not a day-trip, count me in! :D

Chris
08-10-2005, 01:44
I'm going for at LEAST 2 nights! and when the money runs out I'll build a SAND IGLOO And live in it!

Dr. Aeyze
08-10-2005, 11:07
I'm definately coming, even if I have to scrounge money off my parents x_x Never been to Blackpool before, so getting there might be somewhat of an issue, I doubt I'll be able to drive by then (sucks ; ; ) I'll have to look around and see if there're any coaches that run from poole -> Blackpool, because I looked at the train journey from Poole (my local trainstation) up to Blackpool and... it sucks. There were about 5 transfers and a bus - I'd have a fit trying to do that xD I don't even like catching one train somewhere, 5 is pushing my limits. My Dad wouldn't drive me up there but he could fly me (http://www.flugzeugbilder.de/a/24/03/1091445962.jpg).

Poor plane, that's such an ugly picture of it, I can't even find one with me in it either >_>;;

Lei
08-10-2005, 12:10
pfft, i wont go up there just for ONE day, what a waste..XD
I mean me and Lei have plans ..heh heh heh...XD

=D EXACTLY!!

I was thinking 3+ days??

And I was just thinking, and I'll probably be able to drive by then...HEHE! YAY!! So that'd be easier....*Crosses fingers*

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 12:22
Hopefully I'll have my bike by then :D

Tharrick
08-10-2005, 13:14
Well, Angelos will hopefully be driving by then, and Brindley already drives, so I can make it and bring a guitar/amp, if someone wants to supply power:P

Chris
08-10-2005, 13:28
I'll also probably be able to drive by then, so me and Dale will have a ROADTRIP :D

Failing that, I'll get Hender to drive.

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 13:33
If you plan to ride on the back of my bike dude :D lol.

I'll take a detour just so you can all go "ARGH! OMFGWHEREISTEHDALE!?"

Hideto
08-10-2005, 13:34
I'll also probably be able to drive by then, so me and Dale will have a ROADTRIP :D

Failing that, I'll get Hender to drive.

erm it takes about a year.... or something to get your licence (if you pass first time that is...) so i dont know if even I would have a licence. But ill probably have the bike so....

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 13:38
You have the bike? IT'S MY BIKE! Noooooooooooooooes!

Chris
08-10-2005, 13:47
Mine now *yoink*

and a year for a drivers license? bollocks! can't be!

Hideto
08-10-2005, 13:59
what.... you need like 30 - 70 hours of driving at least before oyu're good enough for your exam........ Its not like a three month thing you know.

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 14:02
How come I can drive my bike by then?

Oh hold on...chances are I probably fricking can't because my birthday isn't until February...Oh joy...****ING RETARDED.

Chris
08-10-2005, 14:08
I know, Hender, I'm not retarded. Just a year until you get the license IS retarded.

Tharrick
08-10-2005, 14:10
That's nothing. Seen the new potential legislation for motorbike licenses? We're talking 6 years before you get your full license.
And yes, they HAVE admitted that it's all with the specific intention of taking motorbikes off the road.

Dale Anthony
08-10-2005, 14:14
What the hell? Jesus! How come when I'm just old enough to get a bike, the bastards raise the whole license crap?

Not every driver is a complete maniac retard who wants to smash things up, or drive full-plet down a motorway to look cool, or pretend he's Jeremy Clarkson.

Lei
08-10-2005, 14:15
The whole driving thing does NOT take that long - just thought I'd point that out. I know a lot of teenage drivers (17/18 year olds)and trust me, it didnt/doesnt take that long. Can't be arsed to explain though.

But yeah, i should be driving - if not i'll take the train or get a coach, doesnt bother me, though driving would be the best. ^_^

Angelos
08-10-2005, 14:25
on average takes 40 hours to learn to drive, according to my instructor anyway, so one hour long lesson a week looking at 9 months (cant be bothered to work out the exact details today), though some schools do intensive courses that take about 3-5 days of 8 hour driving a day, and then some people can pass in 20 hours, but once you pass there is pass plus which is 6 more lessons teaching motorway driving.... and knocks 25% off your insurance, so yeah can take a while and thats if you pass first time, but anyway i should have my license by may next year so might be able to make it to blackpool

Tharrick
08-10-2005, 16:14
Do the intensive course dude :P You can drive up to Nottingham and see me :D

Angelos
08-10-2005, 16:27
i cant be bothered with those things, but i am thinking of changing from a single one hour lesson to two two hour lessons a week once my theory test is over, so who knows might be driving in time for christmas :D , then i have to find where to go in nottingham, i haven't been there before.

Chris
08-10-2005, 18:01
One lesson a week... I might go for 2 then... if thats possible.

Hideto
08-10-2005, 18:12
not many instructors will let you do that cause most instructors struggle to fit you in for like just one lesson a week since lots of people are learning to drive.

Chris
09-10-2005, 10:51
dang... well... I'll try anyways!

Dale Anthony
09-10-2005, 10:54
Well whatever the thing is. I'm gonna be driving next year. It is unfair that our friends a year or two older than us are able to drive and we aren't. So regardless, I'll drive next year on my bike!

Chris
09-10-2005, 10:59
And I'll just steal a ride from one of you guys who is driving, 'cause I'm a laaazy arse :D

Dale Anthony
09-10-2005, 11:07
Yes! And my bike will be...only small :(. I cannot drive my dream Triumph until I am at least 21...argh...dang.

Dr. Aeyze
10-10-2005, 22:44
If anyone wants to help me come up with a route from the south coast to Blackpool or travel with me I'll love you forever >__> I'm the most wimpish insecure traveller ever xD

Dale Anthony
11-10-2005, 00:34
You know, I'm pretty adventurous and I did say I'd like to take a de-tour, so I COULD meet you (even though I'm travelling from up North lol) and we could go together! We're likely to link up with AJ before then anyways.

Grae
11-10-2005, 00:52
Alice, I have no problem coming down south first, as long as I could find a wee B&B to stay the night in, heck if Tsuji comes over here we'll both come down, because I already told you I wanted to travel with you XD

Or you can come with Nidi, of course, she would probably have to take the train.

How does everyone feel about camping?
My mother says B&Bs are expensive, thats why I'm looking into things like weekend package deals and guesthouses, even trying to find a hostel in the area.

Dusk
11-10-2005, 00:57
OMG YES CAMPING OMG THAT WOULD SO COOL XD

I have to take the train anyway >__>
I don't mind making a detour to meet Alice, i'd rather she came up with someone though..this world just isnt safe >__>

Dale Anthony
11-10-2005, 01:17
Well...whatever happens. I'll take a detour to meet you southern guys! Cause I want to :D

Angelos
11-10-2005, 01:46
camping is ok, but i was looking on http://www.blackpool-hotels.me.uk/ and a suite with bath, shower, tv, fridge ect for that time of year will cost about £1330 for 2 weeks so i will probably end up booking that.

Tharrick
11-10-2005, 02:00
**** me sideways, I couldn't afford that, I'm a student mate ¬_¬

2 weeks? We won't be in blackpool for 2 weeks, dude

Angelos
11-10-2005, 02:05
i was just using that as a basis for price, i doubt i could stay 2 weeks, but its something like 36-95 pounds a night in a hotel depending on location time of year and size or room, this was for a 3 suite (double bed for me, single for my ego), with as many extra's as avaliable, such as tv mini fridge and bath tub (some just had showers)

Grae
11-10-2005, 03:24
well I will look up places, and find a good deal. We will probably have to find a few different places to stay, and if it comes downm to it we'll have to have luck of the draw to se who gets to stay at the cheaspest, obviously peopel without jobs and students get first pick, and me, well im not tyoo fussy with money and im rollin in it so i dont mind where I stay.

People will be allowed to make their own reservations, infact I would prefer that because then I wouldn't have to handle everyone's money but if you need an over 18 to book it for you, I can deal with that.

Aeyze shouldn't travel alone, Nidi, if you're coming up you and Alice should meet up and travel together, I'm sure Alice could handle going herself but just to be ont he safe side it's best to travel together, you know? Never know what kind of creeps are out there.

Obviously camping will be cheapest, that or a hostel
Campsites are usually out in the country, we will need transport, I prefer to stay in the town though where it's easy to get around places, because I like to stay out late :/

Hostels are conditional though. Or we can find the nearest Euro Hosteland walk in with big backpacks and swedish accents.

Looked up a few place sont hat link, not too expensive, pretty good actually, I was thinking it would be way more expensive, but personally, I think 3-4 nights would be our limit. I like The Sherwood Hotel and The Ascot Hotel, they seem pretty nice and with reasonable rates.

Dr. Aeyze
11-10-2005, 15:00
Seems like such a detour though for people to come down where I am x_x

Chris
11-10-2005, 15:30
I've ALWAYS said we should do camping... but nooooo no one listens!

We need someplace central really, 'cause we can't just all go down south, think of Grae! He's in Scotland!

Grae
11-10-2005, 15:58
I've already decided I wanna go to blackpool though, I mean I HAVE to go to a beach area, I haven't been to one in years, and theres always plenty to do there.

Aeyze <_< I know you might not trust me, but for me to come down there first is not a problem for me, honestly, if you really need someone with you I can make it, and I'm not just saying that, I can, I like travelling. I can always drag Tsuji with me, that is if things go to plan and he comes over here and travels with me.

Tharrick
11-10-2005, 16:08
It'll be a much shorter trek than chugging a smart car up to Newcastle :D

Dusk
11-10-2005, 17:45
Me + Lei suggested we went camping, because basically that would be so much fun..we could get those special BIG-BIG tents with the seperate rooms one for boys and one for girls, OMFG That would be soo cool XD

Dr. Aeyze
11-10-2005, 18:11
Could always do camping & Blackpool as two seperate outings. Camping is fun. Blackpool is fun. SO MUCH DESCISIONS x_X

On a side note. If Dalton, Grae or Dom etc are still okay with coming down to... uh, well, go back up to Blackpool with me now knowing that I live right down on the coast, I'll feel so much better about going up to Blackpool - and I do realize this is probably incredibly silly of me, but I really am very insecure about travelling on my own >__> I'm one of those annoying people who has absolutely no confidence in myself ;_;

Grae
11-10-2005, 18:39
I'll do it!

Why? I will get to see the south coast, I've never seen it, except for the cliffs of Dover, but th8at was on my way to france looking back (and they're grey, not white! >_<)
I can probably afford it because I spend a minimal amount of money as it is, and I already offered, and heck, it will be fun, just need a plan, but that can all be discussed later, as we have 9 more months of planning but accdomodation must be made soon, travel can be handled later.

I talked to Tsuji, and I wondered he could get the plane from Donegal to Edinburgh, I could pick him up, he could stay at mine for the night, then the next day early morning we set off to our destination,and if need be, pick up Alice first, but if we had to go pick you up first we'd need to come down a day early and stay somewhere overnight then leave in the morning and travel up to Blackpool together, it'll take me about 9-10 hours to train it down to where Aeyze is. (note to self, bring a travel pillow)

Man, its soooo unfair, I wish I could go but
i) i've just re-joined and i'd be intruding
ii) i have no way of getting there
iii) im skint
iv) i wouldn't be allowed....

Hostels are conditional though. Or we can find the nearest Euro Hosteland walk in with big backpacks and swedish accents.Make that Norwegian accents and I can help you fine tune yours ;)
Would be fun if I could show but Im just as insecure as Ayeze when it comes to travelling (and I have to make my way from Norway ffs XD), and I dunno if you want me in your gang XD

Dusk

thats Sister Domi to you, MisterI prefer to call you Queen Domi, because the idea of wanting to have sex with my sister is sort of disturbing :p
and the only man i want is god <3Reminds me of this quote from Charmed, after Prue "lost" this warlock guy to priesthood: "If you're going to lose a guy, might as well lose him to the big guy".
But Im not giving you up, my Queen. I shall convert you back from this path of righteousness, back to the life of hethen perversity which I KNOW you enjoy!

Found a coach I could possibly catch.
~ My Dad can drop me up in Bristol
~ Catch a coach up to Birmingham.
~ Swap coaches for one heading up to Blackpool

I'd arrive at blackpool at BLACKPOOL, Talbot Road bus station, Lancashire around 8:00pm'ish. I don't see anywhay I can get there much earlier unless I stay over night somewhere, but by going to Bristol with my Dad it shaves about 3 hours off the coach journey it would be from Bournemouth up to Blackpool.

__EDIT__

Found another route with no change overs, saves me having to freak out while swapping coaches, this one goes straight from Bristol to Blackpool, no changes, and gets into Blackpool at the same place at 8:25pm.

Aeyze that seems like the best route for you to take, the one from Bristol to Blackpool, arriving at 8:25 PM, should be okay. I'm going to start calling round places this afternoon mebbe and get a quote on the prices.

http://www.blackpool-hotels.me.uk/hotel/?hotel_id=1322&q=Ascot_Hotel_Blackpool&display=hotel_overview.html

Ijust called this place, I like it, it's got good services (walls are a bit bright though)

One person staying in a single room = £30 a night
Two people staying in a double room (not osure if this is 2 beds or one double bed) = £25 a night, per person

I like this place.

Hmmm that place looks pretty class, I hope we can all fit in the place, since it says: "The Ascot Hotel is a fourteen bedroom hotel ideally situated in the heart of the popular Blackpool South Shore area, between the town centre and the Pleasure Beach.
Ya know? =P But yeah, that sounds like a cool place, I'll discuss it with my parents n' stuff, and let them see themselves =P IMO looks pretty nice though =o

Lei

Grae
24-10-2005, 11:56

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 11:59
Whoa whoa whoa! If you get your own room, I WANT MINE! lol.

No-way am I sleeping with any guys! lol.

Chris
24-10-2005, 12:16
Not secure with your sexuality, Dale? :P

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 12:21
Ha ha! I am secure CHRIS! lol

I just don't wanna sleep with any guys...LITERALLY...or in the same room lol...well unless there's certain things that gets us into that situation, then I'd be okay with it.

Grae
24-10-2005, 12:30
I just want my own room because I like my privacy and I don't wanna be disturbed when I bring a nice girl back to my room for the night. :D

Chris
24-10-2005, 12:34
And that'll happen how?

Ah yes, rohypnol ;)

Tsuji
24-10-2005, 19:09
I wouldn't mind sleeping in thesame room with some HHN members, because we're HHN members xD So yeah, I wouldnt mind really, boy or girl =P I would just have to warn them...I do snore a bit XD Lol =P

Lei
24-10-2005, 19:36
To be honest, I don't mind who I share a room with either. So long as I'm sharing, I'd get scared on my own. @_@

Honay, Aeyze wont go to your room XD

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 22:26
Nah...unless circumstances force us to share, I'll be more than happy to be on my own for the night. I mean come on, we'll spend enough time together...and regardless of who's in what room, it's not gonna matter cause I bet we'll be like kids pulling pranks on each other all night. XD

Chris
24-10-2005, 22:30
ME, TSUJI AND DALE!!!

That would so rock.

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 22:33
I don't even know Tsuji...so I dunno how it would but...LET'S GIVE IT A GO! :D

I hope you mean by this, pulling pranks and not sharing rooms. XD

Chris
24-10-2005, 22:39
I meant room. we'd have teh best one liek.

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 22:40
Seriously...unless you payed me rent. I'd be on my own lol. I DON'T SLEEP IN THE SAME ROOM AS STRANGERS! *looks sharply at Tsuji*

Chris
24-10-2005, 22:47
fine be ANTISOCIAL!!!

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 22:51
You can't change people Chris lol.

Besides like I said, even if we all had our own rooms, we'd be up all night messing around and playing pranks on each other anyway lol. We're only young, it's the kinda thing we'd wanna do...unless we were EXTREMELY tired.

Chris
24-10-2005, 23:00
yeah but there's like 14 rooms in that hotel, some - probably most since its summer - are gonna be booked anyhows... so with more than 14 people probably going, we can't each get a room, and so on.

SPACE SAVING, DALE!!! SAVE SPACE = MORE PEOPLE = GROUPS PLAYING PRANKS ON OTHER GROUPS. DUH! :P

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 23:04
So that's like suggesting Me (The Loner-ish Dale), You (The Masterbassist Hippie Guy) and Tsuji (The (According to Midi) cute drummer) are all on the same team?

EDIT - Pranking is a sport! :D

Lei
24-10-2005, 23:34
And rooms are usually two adults only. Busted!!!!! =P Gotta rethink, guys!

Dale Anthony
24-10-2005, 23:35
Two adults! Fine...I'll share with you Lei Lei! :D

THEN WE CAN HAVE FUN ALLLLLL NIGHT, SCARING PEOPLES! XD

Dr. Aeyze
25-10-2005, 00:13
Do we have any idea what sort of duration the trip's going to be for? I know it was mentioned previously more then a weekend, but anything more detailed? 2 nights, 3 nights etc? so on and so forth?

[I'm not really that bothered about dates ~ My parents are going on holiday without me, I don't have a job, I do have one trip scheduled with a friend in August though, gonna have to make sure that doesn't clash with anything xD]

Dale Anthony
25-10-2005, 00:16
I don't really know. Isn't this gonna be sometime in May or something? I kept thinking it was...around or Easter in April? O__O

That's just what my heads been telling me lol.

Dusk
25-10-2005, 00:18
Dale, not everyone is going to pull pranks there are some 'mature' people going, i know im going to want to get to sleep..AND LEI IS SHARING WITH ME!!!!!!

THATS WHY WE BOOK NOW!!!

Okay I need to know whos coming, and whos sharing a room, I need to know by Thursday!

I want to go for 3-4 nights, whatever is good with you is fine, I'm thinking first night Friday.

Also I want it to be the middle to the end of July.

Friday the 21st of July to Monday the 24th of July (or Tuesday the 25th) you can stay for less or longer if you wish, not everyone has to stay for the same length.

Dale Anthony
25-10-2005, 00:37
