With LAN VIII just a few weeks away now I thought it would be helpful to set up a thread so people know who else is arriving and at what time.
You'll find me in the room by 10.30am on Friday morning with the aim of having the initial set up finished by 11.00am in good time for the bar to open.
See you then :D
TL.
11AM as usual.

I'll be there at 11:10 so have a pint of Carlsberg on the bar ready please. :D
I'll be there around lunchtime. Maybe a bit before, depending on traffic / me crawling out of my pit early :P
11.00 - 11.30

After getting lost several times, crashing the car, and stalling numerous times i'll be aiming to get there friday....sometime....:-p
after hijacking a car and mugging a petrol attendant I hope to make it by midday, but I think it took about 4 hours to drive last time so possibly not until 2 or 3 in the afternoon...

That'll be 2006 after he's released from jail for the hijacking. :narnar:
I'll be there as soon as I've dropped (dumped) the missus and kids off to the in-laws en route.
Hoping to be there 3pm-ish.
If anyone has the urge to have a beer ready for me ...... ? :)

i just hope im not on of the 1st arriving again at 12 ish, depends how bad my hangover/cant be TANGO'd toget out of bed state is!
If you can cram into my car i could give you a lift although (4 seater --->> 5 people....) saves you driving..
If it gets to full in your car then let me know DA, maybe someone else is passing Stansted aswell again.
i pass stansted. so if things get dicey then i can offer a pickup, (mind you who'd want to get in my car with me driving is another thing all together).
Ive had five in my car before, but stansted is only 15 minutes from my house so its rather close.

Most of you won't be aware that I had to pull out of the LAN because my wife Arja was put into hospital by a motorcyclist who thought he was improving his lap times. Well I'm more than overjoyed to say that she is making a good recovery and although she'll be in dry dock for a while yet she gave me permission, nay, insisted I come up on Saturday to see you. I'll be getting pissed so I've booked a room for the night.
She's a helluva girl and I'm glad to have her back. :D

I can just see Blunt with his head resting on the window sill gazing out the window. :roflmao:
Good to hear Arja is getting better. Wish her my very best mate.
Unfortunately I will have to scrub this LAN at the last moment. I'm working on a huge project right now (Wembley Stadium) and some problems have meant I will be working late tonight and starting work again very early Monday morning. Sadly a family problem has meant I have to travel to my parents in Gloucestershire tomorrow morning as well. Therefore I would be lucky to have late Saturday ninght/ Sunday morning for LAN fun.
So I have cancelled my room and asked Dingo to make my appologies. It also means there is a spare double up for grabs? Maybe ask for an upgrade if you have a single/share?
Once again sorry to miss the LAN (two times now PAH!) On the brighter side I have now got a nice shiny copy of BF2. And so much as I did in CS, I will be on the servers ready to exhibit my awesome killin skillz again. Be afraid.
Personal crisis over, all is well, back home. Still miffed at missing the fun though.
