Although I live in Spain I am going to be in UK for when this event is on.

So I"m booked on the 10:00 from Gatwick to Barcelona on 14th January, staying at the Excelsior.

Can I have a space on charrabang please?

I"ve posted before the arrival times for various people and tried to group them roughly around the same times so that people can group themselves. I will NOT be making group bookings.

I suggest that everyone make their own individual bookings (via the link I gave) and let the Shuttle company group them how they want.

My GUESS is that they"ll go every hour or so (depending on bookings) but that"s up to them.

If my shuttle goes as soon as I rock up then I"ll be propping up the bar at the Excelsior so much earlier.

OK.. getting myself sorted now.

As the Stockton Rock is saying he"s coming now (he"s hopefully booking flights this evening) I"ve booked up into the Excelsior, good times and with a sea view too.

Still working on Gary Palmer as well so maybe 3 of us coming. Might be clashing with his possible "Total Wipeout" filming in Argentina though, I was supposed to be going to the auditions with him this weekend.. then thought.. jumping into mud and massive red balls in Argentina.. or an APAT adventure in Spain. No contest...

Anyone arriving at Barcelona between 12.30 and 2.00 might be worth booking a coach together for cost cutting

Ger has one arranged for slightly later but that would mean I would be hammered before they arrive............ Wait a minute ???

Yeah I am getting in at about the same time so would be interested in this too. Would you be up for all getting the coach in together. Phil, how many of your guys are coming in at the same time mate?

Steve we"re due in at 13:30 at Barcelona, 10 minutes after you by the looks mate.

There"s definitely me and Matty (stockton rock), plus maybe Gary Palmer and Stu"s trying to get some time off work. So the Stockton massive will be definitely 2, maybe 4.

More than happy to group shuttle it over there or get a mini bus together. I"ll try and get Gary and Stu to confirm ASAP so we can organise it.

Folks, seriously, if you use the link I gave they"ll quote you around £12 a head each way. I very much doubt if you"ll be able to get them down much below that by doing a block booking...but you"re welcome to try.

Paulie I"m easy and will go with the flow.. £12 for the shuttle is fine or a group bus jobby, long as I"m at the bar in my speedos by mid afternoon I"ll be happy  :)

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

Same here, as long as we have a group of us to grab one with that will be cool. Cheers Paulie.
