    I think he was referring to the actual thread and not our hi-jacking of it.............which is why we've all been moved and he hasn't

    By the way - The Patio is a 4 star hotel and has a lovely pool, gym etc if that makes any difference but if you're joining us for the usual partying malarky you'll not have any time left for the healthy pursuits

    Have you tried EasyJet, flying from Luton? They had a very special offer when we booked about 3 weeks ago. Even if the offer is no longer on, they might still be cheaper then Opodo.

    That's who I'm flying with. We could get the same flight

    Or, if you want to avoid me, I'm flying up on:-

    Friday 21 November, flight 15
    departs London Luton at 11:10, arrives Edinburgh at 12:25

    It cost me just under £50 b.t.w.

    Well, if you come Friday morning with me, you'll have time for a few delays, and we can entertain ourselves by going through some red moves in the departure lounge!!

    Excellent news Boomer and I hope you manage to visit and sample the now infamous Scottish hospitality!

    As others have mentioned, you can fly to Aberdeen fairly cheaply these days (and it might be worth checking British Airways too as they sometimes offer cheap bargains - www.ba.com )

    Re. the hotel, the best deal would be to find somebody to share a room with, as twin rooms are around 65 pounds for week rates, but only £57.00 at the week-end (only 28.50 per person incl. breakfast) The hotel is brilliant because it is only 2 minutes walk from the Beach Ballroom. Anything else will involve a drive / taxi ride or long walk!

    Finally, I'll post more details soon but the 22nd November is getting more special by the minute. I have now confirmed the Jive Aces Band, and they will play for us, with their energy packed style!

    There will also be some new workshops around the party, including some special workshops for Beginners / Intermediate as well as Style etc...

    Franck.

    Franck, cheers for the news, looking forward to the workshops!

    Grant! Ee gods you've been quite, you must be out on parole Be good to put a face to the posts, just off to see if I can find someone who wants to share a room with a 400lb (actually 178lbs) soon to be big fat sweaty gorilla. Wish me luck or not as the case may be

    Things look like they're moving at last. Franck, had a quick perouse around the website didn't find the relevant info (it was a quick look ), any news on tickets, cost, availability, booking on-line, that kind of thing?
