suicidal_monkey - Being collected by PenFold
requests a lift from March (or Peterborough) train station to the lan
I'm going to swing past Heathrow T3 to pick Threbilith up. I suggest he wears a bowler hat and a carnation so I can recognise him.
First post edited.
He doesn't have to wear a black umbrella aswell?
As you 2 are arriving only 15mins apart wouldnt it be better for both of you to get the same lift (if theres room)?
Ron will pick me up in Stansted like last time. Mono is looking for a ride.
15 minutes apart at two different airports.......
I'll try but the engines will nay take it, cap'n.

What are your times Del? I'll add them to my first post then. It helps so people can see your arrivaltime and such.

Dude to pick up at Heathrow :taz:

Er, can you rephrase that:blush2:, I'm nothing like Benny and have no intention of sharing a bed with anyone, Ducky.

Edited for clearity :narnar:
Duvel, I haven't ordered the tickets yet. I have some transportation stuff to clarify before ordering. Will write here as soon as I know. But, the plane in question will most likely be arriving 11.15 in Stansted (tbc)
Edit: Mono is still looking for a ride!

11:15! What a lovely, civilised time. :smile:
Unfortunately, riding in the back of vans is illegal in UK otherwise....

Is it? :blush2: opps I make Pat ride in the back at the moment while we're getting Secret used to the van. :devil:

WAGs are exempt.
Delan, are you and Mono coming in at the same time to Stanstead?
What are your flight times so we can edit the first post please?

Tickets haven't been ordered yet so I can't say, sorry. Need to sort some issues first.
Sort them a.s.a.p.
It will save you on money if you get them faster :flirty:
what are the chances of someone being able to give me and my computer a lift from london (islington) :)
As Delan have mentioned, I'm looking for a ride to/from Stansted. In another thread, BigFatCat mentioned that he could swing by if anyone would want him to... erhm... so that would be cool... :byebye:
As for transportation in general, I'm currently looking into whether or not Delan and I could go by car (yes, it's waterproof...). My girlfriends dads friend from England usually takes a container ship from Esbjerg (DK), I think, which should be quite cheap. I just have yet to find out which company sails the trip, if it is from Esbjerg and what the tango it costs...
First post edited for a national request.
mono, for your own money interest (which offcourse from the money you save you can buy beer). Ask him fast, I know with Easyjet it really depends on when you book.

Yes, I did offer that, unfortunately all my cargo capacity is already taken with Threbrilith from Heathrow.
I may be able to swing round via Stansted but it really depends on the arrival times.

That's allright mate :smile:
Penfold: I believe Delan and I have decided to go by plane, as the boat adventure seems to be extremely expensive (more than £450 :blink:). The flight we're most likely to book should arrive @ Stansted at 11:15.
If that fits into your plans, I'd be more than grateful to catch a ride!
not sure how to get there yet :S
Mono - I'm sorry but I'm not sure that's going to work. :blush2:
I'm going to need to drop the family off at the in-laws and am not sure whether I'm going to be headed that way.
We'll see if someone else is coming up the M11 corridor who can swing by, otherwise I'll try and shift things around a bit

Bump (again)
Anyone able to swing via North London or is likely to be passing Stansted at 11.15am on the Friday ??

Come on you know you want to. Why not do it on the cheap and pull and all nighter (or two) no need for a room! Blunt will bring some drink for you :) After drinking that you wont know what machine your using.
Duvel, if you could update the first post... I have just booked the tickets, and arrival and departure are as follows:
Arrival Stansted, friday 6th 11:15
Departure Stansted, sunday 8th 18:25
I am still looking for someone to swing by Stansted... Puh-lease?!?:byesad:

:withstupid: Err, yeah. Sorry about that. Took it for granted that Duvel would automatically understand that I meant both of us :blush2:
Well, finally you did post your arival times but I posted them seperate because Delan allready has a ride with Doorman.
MONO still needs a ride people, he's coming from Stansted!

I am sorry it took a while to post 'em but we were looking into other ways to go there and spend a few more days. But we then ended up with just the LAN.
I can arrange to swing by. It is out of my way and I have little room in my car.
I can take one for sure.. Two if you don't mind holding onto your kit on your laps :smile:
Let me know.
Dan, Delan is allready going to picked up by Doorman and Mono needs a ride. He'll have a nice ride then though 8).
Hi Ninja
That would be really nice of you! I will try to keep my luggage and gear to a minimum :)
Now all I need to sort out is some kind of monitor and I'm ready to go :)
Just checking ... Is anybody still looking for lifts or airport pickups?

If luggage is a problem leave it with Vidar and I. Just don't expect to ever see it again :devil:
Quote from: OldBloke;152121Just checking ... Is anybody still looking for lifts or airport pickups?
I think it's unlikely but if anyone is coming from central london I'd still love a lift from islington. Might see if I can't think of a way to pack my computer so that the journey is doable by train...
Duvel: NinjaFreak has volunteered to pick me up at Stansted, perhaps you could update first post?
Cheers
Sorry! Post updated!
okay, new plan ... can I request a lift from March (or Peterborough) train station to the lan? Trains run somewhere between every 30 and 45 minutes by the look of it. Carhire within london is twice the price of what is was in Bristol from the same company I used to use and the train trip is cheap and not too arduous :)

that would be great :D what sort of time are you aiming to get there? I can pick and choose trains on the day:smile:
In the NL we have something like a trainschedular, not sure if the UK has the same?
Or just exchange phonenumbers and Monkey can let you know when he's in March?
Ahwell, I can't remember seeing a trainstation though...:g:
