Unfortunately if we went via the website we wouldn't get the deal we've negotiated directly with the owner, which saves us a *lot* of money compared to the list price

Christ I need to organise deposits for this.

As Cras said, we don't use the website and get a hefty discount for being long-standing customers. The Tesco offer may well put it into the same region, but would have to be booked in one go, and I don't really like the idea of having to get Tesco vouchers from 20+ people to do it (nor am I sure it would let us).

Thanks for letting us know though. Could definitely be of use to people in general for booking things.

Cras, I'm surprised you haven't coded up a mini site for this to mark who has paid deposits, and how much is owed etc, seeing as how you've got all that free time with not running Song Wars.

No problem I found the cottage option the other day when looking at my vouchers :)

Two things need to happen.

1 - More people confirm attendance

2 - People give me money for the deposit

£30 quid each should do for now.

I have thus far received £60 from Team MaliCool and £100 from Mr Dave.

Cheers!

Please add Mat, Carly and HOC#64 to the "interested" list. The latter won't confirm until after MeatUp, though.

Right!

We need to pay the rest of this at some point soon.

We could also do with some more people committing to this weekend of sheer joy.

I haven't paid anything yet... I am clearly a bad person.

Can you PM all the relevant details and I'll get it sorted in the next couple of days.

I'm definitely in by the way but I'll be going home Sunday morning again like last time.

Guys,

Huge rule change of great importance:

To be Ticket to Ride World Champion, not only do you have to win the World Championships, BUT you also have to get the longest train. The thinking is that this rewards style and panache.

Right.

There are 22ish people on the list.

The cottages cost 2400 for the pair. (The regular cost is just north of 3000 quid, though I do see that for available dates the current sale prices put it pretty close to our deal, which I've not seen before).

Anyway!

22*100 = 2200
24*100 = 2400

So clearly to make this easy for all concerned, let's get 24 people confirmed and then everyone can pay me £100 and it's all good!

Come on, people, you know you want to!

If we get more than 24 then it can pay for shit like food and if he tries to get me with the electricity fee again.

He's more than welcome to come too, though I understand if you'd rather not.

Feel free to pop in if you don't, though. Would be lovely to see you.

Unless everyone wants to be used as human trampolines for the entire weekend :D

We might pop in for a half hour one day if we can find an NT place to visit nearby on the weekend, just to come and hug you all up xxx

Finances are looking better for me, I'm not down to be call on that weekend, just need to work on the wife, and see if I can book the days off around the weekend for transport etc... So I'd say I'm now at 75% yes.

MaliA and MrsA have become the latest HEROES to pay for the cottage.

We are still way short and need people to pay up, please, as I'm overdue in paying the chap and currently have a rather large shortfall that will be annoying to make up entirely by myself.

Sorry to be a downer there. Please do come though! Lots of fun! New faces encouraged and welcomed! Games! Quiz! Food! Fun!
