Deathray 2,940 Posted July 19, 2017 Why would I want to meet any of you in real life? You'd probably spark me out. That said avoid the snooker finals weekend and I might make it if I'm not skint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm seriously considering attending. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No dates as yet but a fair bet would be the League Two one is on the Monday. Obviously, we'll storm to promotion (assuming we sign more than the current four new arrivals from the close season) so - therefore - won't need the 90 minute nail-biter to secure League One status. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted August 11, 2017 Right, Ive not forgotten this. IF anybody is interested in a pilgrimage to DLs centre of worship, lets have your interest expressed or summat. Obviously, all main details will be done via PM and Morse Pigeon to maintain our absolute secrecy and anon....well you know. I did initially suggest May but March or April would be fine by me too, the main thing will be to get those who can and want to go to, erm, go. Hopefully R.A will be reading this, his attendance with his mega sized folder under his left armpit is a must and a DL tradition ( as is Lardy and LGs capacity to drink) Mebee even NAP Tuber may read this, you never know...... Charon, if you can make it we will all wear Orange for you. Over to you folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just googled KLM which goes Dallas - Amsterdam - London. For April and early May week-days; the flights are all about 1,193 US Dollars round trip right now. Make sure you book the return flights that cost 0 - to under 100 US Dollars though (More expensive in June- August when all the X-pats flight back to the USA to visit family during the school holidays. I usually go to Los Angeles or SAN Francisco from Norway in the off-season.) Book now though! Seems KLM and Delta share these flights. British Airways is worth a try as well. Cheap to rent a CAR through them as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,589 Posted August 13, 2017 Yeah - I'm a pretty strong probable. Good to meet up and good to see the fabled facade of the gates of showbiz delerium. In fact - looking at the trainline to BH - I could even break my journey and pay another visit to the Bolan shrine/site of the great man's death on the way. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
