palfrey at 11:00pm on 25/07/2004An hour or so ago I sent the below email to some people. As my guesses on email addresses are a little sketchy for some people, here's the email again. Talking about this should ideally be done by email, I'm just using LJ to make sure it gets out to everyone
Hey everyone. This is being sent to everyone who replied to my LJ post yonks ago about Edinburgh, and there's now a temporary email list (edinburgh@bits.bris.ac.uk) that sends to all of you (plus Rob, on a "why not?" basis). If there's anyone who wants to be removed, or anyone who should be added, tell me.
Due to my complete lack of anything regarding organisation, I proposed this about 2 months ago, and then didn't do anything about little things like actually sorting this all out. You've probably all classified this under "not gonna happen". My bad, but assuming that a reasonable proportion of you are still up for it, it's still workable. The basic details are the same as the original post (Easyjet prices are up a bit), so here's what's new. I've finally got in contact with the campsite, and they've still got spaces. I can call them as soon as I have yay/nay from all of you, and book this. I'll cough up for the deposit initially, and get the cash back off you later. I need to know a ) how many of you still want to come and b) how many tents we're bringing, because they seem to charge on a per-tent basis, rather than per-person. In other words, those of us willing to live with less personal space/have a bigger tent get in cheaper.
Assuming that's all fine, and we've still got *some* of you onboard for my mad planz, then I book, and then you're all gonna need to book the flights. I don't have the cash flow to pay for everyone's up front ('cause that would probably avoid misunderstandings, and failures to book), so this is going to require a bit of co-ordination. The relevant flights are the 08:10 Bristol->Edinburgh on 8/8 (Flight 435) - sorry that's a bit early, but kinda unavoidable - and the 21:45 Edinburgh->Bristol on 15/8 (Flight 434) - again the time sucks [Edit: These are Easyjet flights]
For those still following, the schedule is as follows
1) I get y/n on whether you're all still with the plan, and if there's any other interested parties. Plan dies at this point if numbers are too low, but we can discuss that.
2) I book the campsite.
3) We all book the flights.
So, am I insane and/or do you still want to go? If not, please tell me that as well, so I know when we've got through everyone.
