Mittens Benidorm 2006 - WED 16 AUG to WED 23 AUG

This might be the first mittens I miss out, in which case I demand that it will be called "pseudo-mittens" and that the only activity will be whipping your own backs with chains.

Seriously, I'd love to come but I have a domestic situation here, sort of.

i can be andail for a week...

Andail · Wed 14/06/2006 14:32:53

Yay, a stand-in

Grundislav · Wed 14/06/2006 17:01:07

A Mittens without Andail is like...pizza without anchovies! Well, maybe if you're DarkStalkey...

Hope you can somehow make it, but if not you'll definitely be there in spirit like you were at Gloves 2003.

Pumaman · Wed 14/06/2006 19:15:24

Aw, Andail ... I hope your situation sorts itself out before Mittens. There's still 2 months to go, and it wouldn't do to be without one of the Founding Fathers

perhaps a blow-up doll with an andail face mask will suffice?

edmundito · Thu 15/06/2006 04:34:09

It depends on what you do with that doll.* Â¬Â¬

I only wanted to cuddle up to him, and maybe if he's up to it, feed him some sausage... *

* This is also a sexual refeference... duh...

Pumaman · Thu 15/06/2006 22:14:53

I only wanted to have hot, steamy sex with him. *

* This is not a sexual reference.

Okay Barcelona buds, I am leaving for my suumer holiday 26 days from now, and would like for us to decide on and pay for transportation before that time elapses if possible. If the train is the mode of choice, I suppose we ought to elect one maybe two people to collect money and pay for our tickets, so we are not all scattered for the 4 hours or so. Are we certain a van isn't available? I did manage to find one for 9 passengers, but it was Â£900 for the week

couldn't link to it either, one of those Java thingies.

If anyone can find a 9-seater for hire in Barcelona then that's great, otherwise do we need to book the public transport in advance or can we just wing it on the day?

I am very sad about that Petter, but I've been reading some of your latest posts and I totally understand your position. I just can say that if a no show in mittens is a passport for a happy ending in your domestic situation, I would sign for that. About the Euromed... First class is allways crowded, and in August, whereas tourist class would have free seats, the sooner you book, the better. I have a thought exam this month, on 28th, as soon as I finish it I will post info.

Anyway, you just gotta click "Euromed" on google... Hope this helps.

We will only need a 7-seater if spleen doesnt get his arse into gear and book already...

Nacho · Sat 17/06/2006 14:46:03

Everybody agrees if some of the non-barceloners help to pay the price of the Van while it's in Benidorm? (if some of the Barceloners agree to work as a taxi driver for some diverse stuff?)

No habla espanol, senor. Qui astonadnas I CAN'T THINK OF ANYMORE SPANISH.
