I'll be along, I'll grab that spare bed too if no-one else has called shotgun on it.

Does that mean we've got 10 people? We can get some 5-a-side football going on.

I want to see more pics of me in situations like this one.

Attention girls you heard the guy - don't forget to bring your boobies!

Lanfear and whoever is interested in doing touristy stuff: I just looked briefly and this is what I came across so far as far as Stonehenge tours:

Day Trips from London

Budget Backpacker Tours of U.K - Sightseeing Day Trip of Stonehenge, Salisbury, Avebury and Old Sarum

Both run daily. I'll have to check at work if I can do a 4-day week-end...I think my co-workers's on vacation too...If not, I'd be happy to stay longer.

What? so we can lose to a German in a penalty shoot-out, AGAIN.

I would like to say that I agree totally with this statement and I believe that boobies should be compulsory (for girls)

I was checking the website and it's not very clear if you share the same dorm when you book for a large dorm times 8. It's probably doable by phone though and if the 8-people group doesn't work out we can always devide it up in a 4 bed private and triple private.
It also depends on the kind of room cause if we get put in a 12 person room with 8 people then we'll have to be quiet or whatever for the other 4 people which I don't like.

So we'll have to see how this goes, if more people are planning on coming, etc.

I wrote them a mail and this is what I got back (very fast and friendly BTW):
Hello

Thanks for your email

Unfortunately we don't have any more 8 private room available, we can offer you 2 room of 4 people.

Let us know if you are interested.

Kind regards
Camille

Thoughts? Wait for more people so we can get private rooms for 6 or just book the rooms for 4? They have a two day cancellation with no deposit so we can always change our mind later on.

Are there any other Brit/Europe listeners that would come besides who we have already?

I'll have to check my bank account and how much plane/train tickets are...but for now: I'm in!

I vote either private rooms for 6 or for 4, we can all still party in the rooms all together and just pass out in our own beds later. That's what we did in NY...altho the night after rockband I don't remember the journey back to my room. Was the sign of a good night

Going to book flights in the next few days !!

Agreed!!
Shall we allocate people in the rooms closer to the date or now?

Boob reminder, noted.
