    The train from Paris to Arras is €40 tho. By far the most expensive travel (except the flights) :cry:
    12 euros..

    No the cards charge you €2.50 per withdrawel so just cash.

    I would exchange your money as soon as. The exchange rate on the euro keeps dropping slightly and will prob continue to do so.You could end up €20 - 30 up if you exchange now rather then just before you go. I got mine from the post office, if you keep your reciept they buy back your money commission free. Phil was telling me today tho that Thomos Cook has a much better exchange rate then the post office.

    Booked a coach from Luton aiport to central london (24th) and from central london to gatwick (26th) for £9!!!!

    £9 for 2 transfers from airports to central london is damn cheap :D

    I've booked the Heathrow Express to and from Heathrow to Paddington, I've done enough London commuting on dodgy trains :lol:
    I worry about taking that much cash with me (unless I take money out along the way and suffer the charges or pay for hotels on my card and pay fees)... :? :? :?
    Rates today were 1.11 at post office and 1.12 in Thomas Cook

    any ideas on whats best to do

    after werchter i,m booked into hotel in Lueven but since pearl jam dont finish till 1am and it probably be at least 2am before i get back to hotel cant decide wether its best to scrap hotel and save £125 then catch a couple hours kip in the car before moving on only problem is theres 5 of us in car so not the best option

    i,m driving to holiday camp in south of france the next morning about 600 miles
    staying there for 3 days with the family before driving on about 100 mile to Bilboa on morning of gig
    but grudge paying £125 for 5 or 6 hours kip but then again maybe better to get a good sleep and a shower before moving on

    what to do decisions decisions :!: :!:

    :lol: I'll tell you all about it Dave!
    Yeah, I'd like to especially as I'm not seeing them at Werchter now, I usually stay at the City Inn next to Picadilly but it seems really expensive on those dates, any ideas why? If not I'll look what the prices are like elsewhere...

    ye dimi my son daughter an her boyfriend are with us they 15,16,an 17
    i was kind of swaying towards taking the hit on the hotel so i,m fresh for driving
    suppose it better to spend the extra cash and make it all the way round and back home
    rather than save £125 then not be fit to drive ;)
