Hi All,
I thought since I'll be now coming in from Amsterdam to the LAN in October it would be useful to start this part of the LAN XXIV early.

I'd have to go in the opposite direction to get to Heathrow but it would only be about five miles, so unless someone is actually coming up around the M25 about that time I could come get you. It's a way off yet but at the moment I have every intention of coming along to the October LAN
Kake and I are arriving:
17 oct:
Time: 11:05 SK4139 (https://book.flysas.com/pl/SAS/cui_sk8.0_76_100613/skin/skin_sas/img/plane/738_econ_out.gif) - London, Heathrow (Terminal 3)

Hoping for TL to do the pickup and a pitstop for some Fish 'n Chips :D

Yep I gotcha back! See you at LHR!
I'm booked on the same flight as Kake and Spiritus. TL?
OP updated
Quote from: faust82;371926I'm booked on the same flight as Kake and Spiritus. TL?
Yep, I gotcha!
Albert, I can prob squeeze you in, but with luggage and a handful of large Tanks in the car there won't be a lot of room! Toby, we usually meet for coffee beforehand to swap the switches from me to you, any chance you can pick up Albert if we're in the Heathrow area again, if not then we'll squeeze Albert into the middle seat in the back!
TL the swtiches are already at the OC which mean less lugging for you and I. I dont see why I cant but I think I a few people are coming from Portsmouth might be taking them. I will pick him up if it changes I will make sure he is sorted :)
Me and SJ are also arriving and departing with the same airplanes as Kake, Spiri and Faust. Requesting pickup and delivery if at all possible :-)
I might as well put my flight down as well, I'll be arriving at Stansted at 11:20 on the Friday (18th) and my flight home leaves 17:20 on the Sunday (20th)

Mich you got flight numbers please
TL your going to need a bigger boat :)
Quote from: BrotherTobious;371943Mich you got flight numbers please
The flight on friday got number FR 53 and the one on sunday got FR 58
I should be able to pick you up oth.
Hal there is a possibility of picking you up but I will probably be over the limit :p

Rofl! I can get 7 people in, just not their luggage too! Anyone about who can meet up with me at Heathrow on the Thursday to share the load and then convoy to 'fish & chips' and then onwards to March?
If my plans work out I'll be spending the week of the LAN up in Norfolk so will already be there on Thursday morning. I can still run people back on Sunday if that helps.

Hi, I think I will be able to help out with 2 people coming in from Stanstead. I am picking up one friday and have room for 2 more :)
- Ayla
I've just booked my plane, Easyjet wins it again for me:
Thursday arrival at Stansted: 9:40, flight 3002.
Sunday depard at Stansted: 16:30, flight 3005. Checkin opens at 14:30, closes 15:50.
Finally another LAN for me!
:dmw::cheers::thumbsup::devil::racing::ph34r:
TL if i can, i will meet at the same time in LHR as you and grab as much kit as i can in my vaux veccy, but is all dependant on wife (peny pincher) and the fact that it as a bit of a trip for me from lincoln-heathrow-march-heatrhow-lincoln. give me a couple of weeks to see what i can sort, if i can i will !
Right, we the way things are, I won't have a car....
But I have a van....
So the Thursday mob turning up... TL can grab most, I have 1 spare seat. Yet I have the back of the van to roll people's machines about in....
So I can carry 1 person, pref spiritus so I can get a massage on route!
It solves the problems of people's kit though....

Switch and me with some alonetime..ohhh... :rolleyes:
but I need my fix on route tough, Fish N' chips at TL's hidden place :woot2:
That means I don't have to get a politely sized suitcase either :p
I can do the Stansted run but won't get there until about 10:30-11. Let me know if that works.
Thursday Only - Sunday Return no problem.

Works for me m8! I don't mind waiting a little bit... :worship::cheers::thumbsup::ph34r:
I could also do with a lift. (it's just me and a laptop) Ideally I'd like to turn up on the Thursday. I can easily get to Heathrow, and/or any tube station in London (unless someone happens to be driving close to or through Maidenhead) . Any volunteers?:rolleyes: :huggy:

If you can't find a lift, check the trains - you can go from Kings Cross to March fairly easily.
Quote from: Tutonic;372721If you can't find a lift, check the trains - you can go from Kings Cross to March fairly easily.
Aye, already looked into that as my backup plan. just trying to save on time and money :narnar:
Just throwing this in here, I will be driving down from Manchester, to arrive for thursday. If I can help anyone out along the way, even if just to car share to save petrol, I am happy to :)
ayla if u need transport down btw gimme a msg .
My other half Feezuki will be arriving Friday at some point by train. This being the case please put me down as taxi runs from March station to hotel on Friday. Also I can do a pick up of international chaps on Thursday and it does not really bother me if it is Heathrow or Stansted as I am coming from south of M25 but not both :rolleyes: I don't have a big car and will have my own stuff so 2 possibly 3 is the max I can take.
On the return I will have Feezuki with me so even less room, but I might be able to fit a small wafer thin person's in.
Just wondering if anyone needs any transport help still for the LAN?
Going to do a Half day Thursday so am aiming to leave work about 12:00 should arrive at the LAN about 15:00?
Traveling up from Kent via M25,M11, then onto March.
Returning Sunday when all the action is over.
I think we need a thread update in the OP so that we now who is doing what. I suspect we still have some work to do.
Will have a stab at it tonight

OP updated. Looks like we have a good supply of drivers so we should hopefully be fine.
Questions remaining:
Airport: London Heathrow
We have 6 people arriving on Thursday. I can fit 6 in the car, but it would be best if we had say 1 additional car so we took 3 each plus bags.
Can I ask if you are confirmed as being able to help on the Thursday and Sudnay return trip Sulky? Between you and me we'd pick up Albert, Kakehund, Spiritus, Faust, Othbarty & Soon Jung.
If anyone is passing LHR earlier on Thursday then please shout, otherwise ALbert has a 3 hour coffee break @ LHR after his 08:00 arrival until the 11:05 arrivals.
Airport: London Stansted
This looks ok assuming Ayla is picking up Michelanio, Ninja is picking up Duvel and Ninja is doing the return trip for both Michelanio & Duvel.
Other Lifts Needed
No peanuts - needs a lift on Thursday & back. GhostMjr can I ask if you could pick up No peanuts from either LHR/any London tube/Maidenhead as you round the M25 please? If Sulky can't help with LHR then we might need it to be an LHR meet as you'd be the backup plan for the LHR collections if he can't do it!
Other Drivers Who Could Help
These are currently 'spare' drivers who we do not currently expect to be needed:
Chaosphere - driving down from Manchester on Thursday - shout if anyone is en route and wants to consider a car share
Sneaky - offered Ayla who is already driving down in her own car - where and when are you available to help please Sneaky?
Please can people check the above and confirm if they can do what is planned so that we can confirm things in the OP.
Many thanks to everyone for their generosity of time & vehicle!
I can certainly get to March from Maidenhead by Train, a lift would just be cheaper and easier. If someone is available to offer a lift, I'd be happy to travel to LHR or any of the London Tube stations.
But eitherway, it won't be a problem. I'll get there somehow :D
Let's wait and see what GhostMjr says then! :thumbsup:
I can pick up from Cambridge or Ely train stations, if that helps.
Quote from: TeaLeaf;373970Let's wait and see what GhostMjr says then! :thumbsup:
If I wasn't the other side of the M25 I'd pop over and pick Peanuts up. Traveling clockwise rather than anticlockwise isn't something I was planning to do especially during daylight hours.
Is anyone driving up from that side of the M25?
I can help with Spirtus and that mob....
I can only carry 1 passenger but I can take all the luggage in the back of the van....Can do both thurs and sunday if that's any use?...
I am coming up from Portsmouth did have in mind picking up albert

we will be traveling down on thursday but aylas coming down on the friday is'nt she?
Quote from: Sneakytiger;373988we will be traveling down on thursday but aylas coming down on the friday is'nt she?
Sorry Sneaky, I'm still confused. In order to try to organise the travel schedule I need to know where people are travelling from/which airports they can get to and which day. Ayla' has already posted in this thread that she is driving down on Friday and you offered to pick her up(!) so I presumed you were available on Friday(?). As Ayla is driving herself, I just wanted to check to see if your offer meant you were available to help someone else.
So, back to the original question, if anyone wants to help pick people up then if you could let us know in this thread which airport, which day, roughly what time etc then we can see what help can be given or indeed if it is still needed!
Thanks all :)

Goretex are you able to help out No Peanuts then? He can be in the LHR/any London tube/Maidenhead area on Thursday.
No Peanuts, do you also need a lift back on the Sunday? If so Smilodon might be a good fit as Goretex has Feez in his car on Sunday.
Checkpoint.
Me and yaril will be booking soon when she has comfirmation about her days off :) will be landing on Londen Stanstead friday and leaving sunday, Will post details on here as soon as i can.
Awesome, post up here when you know and we'll try to sort it all out :thumbsup:
sorry to confuse tl, i'll be coming down from birmingham way on thursday, don't think we have any 1 from there that needs a lift do we?

Yes, I'd also require a lift back to LHR or any London tube/train station.
Don't worry about me though, make sure all the international peeps are sorted out first. If transport can be arranged, awesome. If it doesn't work out, I can get to March by train. :thumb:
hi, just to confirm. Thank you sneaky for your kind offer, but, I shall be driving myself down to the LAN. I am available to collect people from Stansted on Friday, as its Friday I'm booked from with the hotel. I currently have space for a possible 2 more. However, just to note, my car is chrysler so boot space is very small, I dont think I could fit in massive amounts of gear and luggage. I can also offer a return trip to Stansted for those that I collect if they want or need.

Ok, Me and Yaril will be landing at Londen Stansted at friday 9:30 ish and will be flying out again from Londen Stanstad on Sunday at 17:00 give or take :)
Hint hint Ayla :P
I will have a backpack and yaril will have a suitcase.. :)
oki hubb's, you and yaril have my back seat then :) see you at the airport :D

Still not totally sure where we'll be living by then so will confirm up when we know. However I should be available to do a Stansted Friday AM pick up and Sunday PM drop off as per normal and as needed.

Can I pencil you in for picking up Michelanio on Friday am then? Ninja is down to take him back on the Sunday.

That should be fine TL but can't confirm until nearer the time.
Sulky, our country seat (pictured) is fine. it's the Town House we're moving :)
I will be arriving at Stanstead at 11:20, flight number FR 53. Same as Michelanio. And will be leaving at 17:ish on sunday, and again, same as Michelanio. So I would appreciate a lift to and from the LAN. :)

I thought you were going on Thursday GM? These are Friday flights.

Sorry my bad Pen.
NP mate.
In which case I'm happy to pick up Swede on Friday AM at the same time as Michelanio. However if you're passing back that way on Sunday if you could drop them off that would be great?
Thanks

Thanks. I'm not going back that way on Sunday so it would be really useful.
departing sunday at 17:00 . already spoke to ayla about it, we will need to leave the hotel around 14:00 :P
Just verifying that me and Mirianna will be coming/going with the same flights as Kake, faust and the others.
Ok, we'll sort you out no worries!
Sadly due to work issues I wont be coming to the LAN till the Friday....so that puts me out of the Thursday pick up....I can still take peeps back on the sun if needed...
Thanks Switch, I'll be trying to finalise the transport arrangements this week so will post back if the space in your motor is needed. Many thanks :)
Smilo added to help with the return run from March to LHR.
Ok cool
Gortex added to help with LHR to march on Thursday.
I think that means we all sorted now?
Looks good to me mate
