Mittens Benidorm 2006 - WED 16 AUG to WED 23 AUG

Pumaman · Thu 30/03/2006 20:05:32

Blimey, Mittens this year looks like it could be huge ... considering the most people we've had in the past was 18, I'm not sure how 30 would work!

I hope you don't mind Farlander, but I edited your post to add people's forum names to your list, just to make sure we're all clear about who the various people are.

Nacho · Thu 30/03/2006 20:09:43

Ok, sorry about that CJ.

Monkey... ask anyway. An "Auntie? Might it be possible to...?" won't hurt anybody. And you'll be in the pole position in the list 2.

Anyway... I am not having in mind that there might be 4 more adults and 4 little devils making a paralel trip. This don't count for campsite figures, but yeah, mittens appears to be massive this year.

Privateer Puddin' · Thu 30/03/2006 20:10:48

I'm on list 1 and I probably wont be there

Pumaman · Thu 30/03/2006 20:20:15

Also, there's nobody at number 6 in your list

EDIT: no custard at mittens? $:-\$ What am I going to eat with my apple pie?

Privateer Puddin' · Thu 30/03/2006 20:24:12

Well. It's too early for me to say if I can come or not and if it stops someone being on list 1..

I wish to come! and if i can i will try to! and i'll turn up and totally ruin farlanders list and it will be hilarious.

I added probably to my last post to cover myself, i've spoken to farl.

m0ds · Thu 30/03/2006 20:30:27

You better come!!!!!

Thats an order!

Bring comfier inflatable beds though!

Nacho · Thu 30/03/2006 20:53:57

CJ, you are an asshole... Are you accussing me of not knowing how to count? There is a 6th number in my list...Ã,Â

Thanks mrs. edit feature!!!

Argh, yes. People, don't use swimming pool inflatables as beds.

Pet Terry · Thu 30/03/2006 21:05:10

Okay, I'll be booking as soon as I know when some of the other people are arriving. Anyone booked yet? When are you arriving in Alicante? I'll be flying from Helsinki to Alicante after all, less hassle and the prices would be pretty much the same no matter how I travelled. I'm looking into arriving early in the morning of 16th, though if someone is arriving a day early in ALC, I could look into that as well.

So yeah, post here when you know at what time you're arriving ok.

EDIT: I had a brief chat with Pessi and he said he'd like to come but as he can't confirm if he is able to go or not until in May, it looks like a sticky situation. Maybe you could put him into the list of maybies? Maybe I should persuade him into posting here in this very thread by himself?

You sissies! Last year I slept the first few days with only a thin tarp between me and the dirt! the latter part of the week I slept prone (:

) on the sandy beach.

At Brittens I'll likely be forced to sleep on (probably wet) grass. Toughen up and rough it guys! It builds character

The floor was more comfortable probably. We just thought at the time it might just work.

Ah a transprter, my kingdom for a transporter! :'(
Alas, considering I am on the other side of the world, I can not come. howerver if I start walking NOW, (and grow gills) I should be in time for Mittins 2107, so no go guys (and gals) SO SORRY :'( I bet there isn't another AGS'er within 1000 miles of vancouver island. alas so alone, I'll go sulk in the darkness know

monkey0506 · Thu 30/03/2006 22:41:45

First: Yay pole position!

B. Hey Farl (heh...I called you farl...

)...you might want to re-read this bit

I've already asked...I'm just awaiting a response.

iii. lo_res_man: What's stopping you. If I can make it, I'd be flying from Oregon USA. Quite a long (series of) flight(s). Of course the plane ticket(s) alone come up to about $1500 USD (that's about 1000 Euros (very roughly)).

4.

Build. Character? Don't you mean "Characters -> Import Character..." or "Characters -> New Character..."?

%. CJ...uh...you really eat custard and apple pie together? Hmm...Guess I'm just a crazy American.

Oh just a little thing I like to call MONEY. there is no way in a million years I could come up with that kind of cash

oh well, I shall dream.

monkey0506 · Thu 30/03/2006 22:49:56

That's understandable. That's the only thing preventing me from giving a definitive answer right now myself.

Radiant · Thu 30/03/2006 23:53:15

Wow, long thread

Anyway I'd still love to be there (I've said so before, didn't I?), and the 23rd is my birthday.

magintz · Fri 31/03/2006 01:52:22

guh money. I'm already overdrawn. I'm coming regardless I have some money set asside. Although ideally I'd like a job so i don't have to delve into my savings.

Kinoko · Fri 31/03/2006 03:28:49

Well, uh, considering I broke off my engagement last week, don't reserve a place my my future husband

(even if I hadn't, I'd still be coming alone. This is really just a very-far-out-of-the-way stoppover on my way back to Australia from Japan)

Layabout · Fri 31/03/2006 04:22:26
