I HAVE BOOKED    Hotel and Eurostar all sorted,
we are travelling out on Friday 6th Nov on the 14.04 from St Pancras, Coach 16 seat 21

Return Friday 13th Nov 14.56 from Brussels, coach 4 seat 23

I have booked too on behalf of myself and Olivia!! Travelling friday to friday, same time coaches as Graham:-) seats 43 and 44 in both directions:-) Road trip!!!!

Wow....all registered and sorted, got my spending money (Now the rate at ASDA is 140)

Just getting to sort accommodation...... Is there anyone who would not mind sharing with a silly old cider drinker from Dorset    

Are you coming on the train I have booked Kevin? I wonder what will happen to the euro if Greece do pull out of Europe.

Not sure about the euro, but I was advised by someone who knows about that sort of stuff to get mine now.

Just looking at Eurostar times and fares.

Although the event seems to kick off on Monday, is going out on Friday and returning Friday the favoured days for travel ??

They now have a masterclass on the Sunday night, if you stay the sunday you have to pay from the Friday for accommodation so I just plunged in for the full week.
I'm sure there will be others there so we can all twist or chat to others from all over the world, how often do we get a chance to speak with other nutters about balloons  

Yes, I think that's what I will do. It is also easier and cheaper to travel to London on a weekday About £15.00 cheaper, and a direct journey.

If I leave Weymouth about 9.30 ish I have plenty of time for breakfast, travel from Waterloo to St Pancreas, and sort tickets and platforms out without any rush or panic

That is why I booked the afternoon train Kevin so people could travel up Friday morning, when you book Eurostar make sure you book any Belgium station then you
do not have to buy another ticket and it will save you money.

YAY !!!!!

Eurostar all booked

Belgium here we come ......Thanks for the tip re Belgium stations  

Hurrah, kevin:-) see you soon!

So should we start keeping a note of who is on the same train, so far I think we have.

Graham Lee
Thelma Levett
Paul Curwen

I am not coming out until the Monday morning and I arrive about 11 or 12 or something like that, however I AM on the same train coming home

I'm all booked in now - same train both ways but I'll stay with my brother Friday & Saturday and he will drive me up to Sunparks, Mol on Sunday.
Seat 15 out, and seat 34 on the return.

I have also booked my hotel room too.

     

I am all booked for TMJ as well... 8-)

Being a Northerner the Eurostar doesn't work for me and so I am booked in seat 10A on Brussels Airlines on the early Monday flight and Friday late afternoon.

Hotel room all booked as well.

Can't wait!!!!
