Damn your father and his 18 and above rule.. I might've gone and graced *cough* you all with my presence...

Bah.. Who am I kidding. It has to be in a 50 mile radius for me to attend.. lol.. By the time there's another American Mittens, I'll be old enough to go..

But.. I gues.. This June.. If anyone wants to see ol' LGM they can all come down to Blieskastel in Saarland, Germany and we can have a pint.. :-p

Yay! Finaly some hard dates I can use.

If I'm not there, then I'm dead. But my will allready states I want my dead body transported there for the weekend, so if I'm not there...I'm probably lost in baggage claim.

I buy so many Anime DVD's that my mittens fund can fit in a mitten.
But I'll try to make it after I check some things. (like flightmoney, vacation dates & stuff...)

edit:Any dutch peeps? fruitTree? n3tgraph?

Hope you guys all have a great time. Just so Farlander knows: I won't be going:  anyway, Alba isn't 18 yet!

I will be coming (unless something wonky happens and I lose all my money on the greyhound races), and I shall PM you when I'm not on an expensive connection.

Finally, I'm pretty sure that I can go. I have enough money and 23rd of July sounds good (I can get some extra money by working on June).

Now it's time to ask if any other Finns are going ( Pessi ;) ) I could travel alone... but I'd rather not. Also, the flight from Finland would go to NYC and I remember Dave saying he could probably pick us up on the NYC airport. So, awesome.

I hope to go but am not too sure just yet. I won't be able to afford the flights AGA will be taking but I hope to go via aircourier.co.uk for £250. It'll mean I may be on a different flight and will have to take a letter on board with me, but it also gets to mean my surname will be on someones board at New York.

Not sure when to PM you tho eric. I mean, I can PM and say, I MIGHT BE COMING! But thats about it. Once i've sorted this out I shall let ye know.

PS, AGA + UKers - what day would we get a flight? Thursday or Friday? And what day would we get a flight back?

EDIT: Screw the courier thing, I'll probably go via something like cheapflights.co.uk. Although they're not listing the Mittens dates just yet I'll probably get a last minute flight thing, which should be around £250 still and should also be fairly easy to get - what with everyone being scared of terrorism and all. :)

Oh Pessi, please do come, and bare gifts of wisdom with tutorials and fun drawings. We love your art.  Speech, speech!

This is the cheapest flight I've found, after quite a lot of searching. Apart from last-minute deals, that's probably as cheap as it's gonna get.

About when to fly, I thought quite early on the 23rd from London, which would let us arrive in NY at around mid-day. Then leave New York in the evening on the 30th, at something like 8, which puts us back in London  in the morning on the 31st. That sound good to everyone?

I think I'll get some info from a travel agent first, but this is what i found so far.

It's from Thomas Cook. Travel agency.

Ooh, that's quite a lot cheaper than the one I found - that's £399.177. I'll see if I can find a similar flight...

Ok, I checked out thomascook.com, and there's a flight for £492.50 here...

There seems to be an Air India flight that is cheap...

here


http://www.traveljungle.co.uk seems to be a good search engine... have you considered flying from somewhere other than London, too?

I just assumed London would be cheapest, since Gatwick and Heathrow have more airlines, so more choice = more value, surely?

airlines have to pay more to fly from / to gatwick / heathrow surely?

I'll certainly try to come. I have some saved up money, but I guess I should be working extra to not feel totally bankrupted afterwards.
I'll PM you any day, Eric. I usually charge 100$ for my autograph, but I guess your hosting me will sort of make up for it.
All else sound terrific. I'll try to persuade 2ma2, Chrille and Vargtass as well, although they have more or less gone underground since last mittens.

The Air India one SSH linked seems very promising:



Maybe even you can afford this, m0ds?

Perhaps I can! We'll see. Cos I can't right now.

:p

I'll discuss it with my parents.
