That's great to take a flight from State Of Mind, Mexico.

Nic.
I'm fine for that date if there is enough interest from fellow BOTLs.

A Grand Day Out

OK guys, I have posted an event on the calendar for Saturday 18th April.

I will keep this updated with developments as we firm up details.

Any questions let me know.

TJ, I can promise you a very warm welcome if you get that flight.
Salut!

Names TJ, TJCoro,

Thanks Senor Nicwing,

I'm keeping a sharp eye on flights for that date. I hope to make it, if possible.

If you can, Sir Nicwing, kindly recommend a few inexpensive hotels, if there is such a thing in London, where I can rent a room. I would be willing to share the cost with anyone else who may be flying in for this fabulous event - a gathering of Habana lovers.

Ahem, Mr. Nicwing...will Nancy be there?

[nicwing]

Hey TJ, I think the best place to look for rooms is Expedia or even better Trip Advisor as you will get a real person who has stayed recently to tell you what the hotel is like. I live one hour north of London so I don't tend to stay in hotels in town unless I am in no fit state to get home on the train.

Hope you can make it, I am sure there will be some great late deals on flights.
Salut!

Good for me at the mo.

[Robusto]

Don't know if I've posted this already but I'm fine for this if it's a group walk and herf.

I'd like to slam a few chops, chomp a couple of fine ones and put names to on-screen smoking pipes.

Train to London

Robusto
I have just checked the timetable and prices to London by train ?29.95 return that sound about right? Did you come via my neck of the wood? We could meet up on the train to London maybe?

The Dog.

[nicwing]

Just to summarise
I believe we are as follows:

R. O'Busto Probable
Deano Probable
Cohiba IV Possible
Drewdorm Possible
Stogiedog Probable
TJ Coro Possible (subject to flight from State of Mind, Mexico)

There are also 3 possibles from my Facebook group (excluding duplication)

I am going to double check that we will receive a warm welcome at the spot I have in mind for the Herf, and check whether they would look to limit numbers but it is starting to look like we have an event gentlemen!

That's a shame, i've got a wedding that day (playing at not invited)

I can't really do saturdays anyway, i'm always gigging in the evenings.

Great pic, Dawg!

Sure about that price? Very good news if it's so. I paid ?51 on Tuesday and nearly carked it at the booth!

If it's ?51, I'd prefer to drive and you might like to share.

Put me down for a Diffo....

I will be there....

[Drewmidorn]

I'm afraid that I'll have to leave any confirmation till the last minute due to work. If thats not a problem thats great I'd love to come, but planning anything more than a fortnight ahead is difficult. The 18th of Aptil is a TBC in my diary at the moment.

[Robusto]

Nic - Put me down as a definite yes, mate.
Bonus is that I've just seen it's in my Easter holiday, too.

Walk & Herf 18th April

Hi guys
Great news, I have been a little hesitant, but I can now confirm that the Stafford Hotel (The American Bar) will be delighted to welcome us for a Herf after the walk.
They will reserve 2 tables for us but have asked that we limit numbers to 12 to allow some space for their guests.

I have also opened this up to the Facebook group and have about 6 possibles there.

At the moment I have only Robusto and Cohiba IV as confirmed yes and I know TJ will be a last minute confirmation and as he is comming so far I will keep a place open for him. That leaves 9 places open and the sooner you can confirm the better.

Having said that, if it's a success I don't see why we wouldn't do it again.

Salut!
