Mittens 2010 Italy -- Sat 31st July - Sat 7th Aug. Last few spots remaining!

[Quintaros]

Mods, I don't know yet what the final costs are going to be for the rental but I'd estimate that about 10 euros would cover you each way. 

I do have to be back in Milan on the 7th to pick up my g/f at about 6PM.

[m0ds]

Sweeet thanks sir well that would be the best option for me if it's okay to ride with you. I plan to get to Milan by 10am on 31st so I can mill about til Snarky turns up etc and the flight home won't be til 9pm so being back in Milan by 6 would be super. Thank you! I'll go ahead and book my return flight now then

Edit, booked. Dep: 07/08/10 from Milan (Bergamo) BGY 22:15 on FR8263

[Quintaros]

Yeah, I'll also have most of the 31st to kill while waiting for Snarky to arrive.  I'll come get you and we can go see or do something for the day.

[Chrille]

It would've been great to go in your car, Quintaros. But I don't expect you'd want to leave the house as early as I have to in order to get to Bergamo airport on time.

Wow, Italy is just 8 days away.

[Snarky]

what about your return journey, and Snarky, where are you flying out from and when?

I'm flying from Milan MXP on August 8 at 6:20 PM. Since we have to check out of the villa on the morning of August 7, I guess that means I have a day in Milan (and need to find somewhere to stay). What are the rest of you who're flying out on the 8th doing? (AGA, Creed, Esseb etc.)

So Mittens has already happened? How was it?

[Creed Malay]

Me and Kim are moving flat today, so might not be able to get a holds of the internet again before Mittens. If not, we'll see you in Italy! Godspeed, peoples.

[Miez]

Well I'm in Pisa right now and I'm glad to say that Italy is still here.

[m0ds]

Make sure it hasn't gone anywhere in a week, and I presume we'll see you around Enjoy!

Ooh. Edit. Any luck with the posters, sir?

Any more phone numbers would be appreciated.
I've got a few, could do with a few more to send on to people.

I have the posters with me, let's hope they survive being hauled around tuscany for a week

My phone number would be 00 31 6 24126970. I guess.

A question for the UK crew, where are you staying on the night of the 30th, and if it's in Milan, how much is it? What about you Quintaros?

Edit: Never mind - I booked the same flight as you guys. If it's okay to get a lift in the van to Linante airport when you pick up Grundy that would be great, and I can wait to meet Quintaros and then crash in the airport or what not

PS: Awesome miez!! Thank you dude! Enjoy your week

[Grundislav]

FYI Mods, I'm not getting picked up at the airport, I'm making my way to wherever the UK crew is when I arrive in the afternoon of the 30th.

[Chrille]

My number is 00 46  7 3 4 0 6 4 3 9 5

I arrive late on the 29th and I'll meet up with the brits on the 30th when they've arrived. I'm staying at Hotel Sempione.

[AGA]

What are the rest of you who're flying out on the 8th doing? (AGA, Creed, Esseb etc.)

We fly out on the evening of the ninth, not the eighth. We're road tripping around the country for two days before we go home!

[AGA]

I have a few more phone numbers, Mods, plus a list of the ones already mentioned in this thread. Don't really want to post it publicly though, since it has the sekrit CJ number in. I'll PM you the link. Then I'll PM it to everyone else in a day or two once it's as complete as it's likely to get.

EDIT: actually, I'm only missing Disco, FSi, Quintaros and Snarky now. And I've been told that Disco has no mobile

Like Grundy said, we're not actually meeting him at Linate. However, Malpensa is like 50km from the actual city itself, while Linate is only 5-10km from the city. So it shouldn't be the end of the world for us to taxi you to Linate.

[m0ds]

Aye well it looks like the 30th will be spent in Milan by most, so no problem. I'll hang out with Chrille if you folk have to desperately head off elsewhere. And like I said I'm quite appealed to be an Italian bum for the night, see how many pieces I end up in the next day

Also, Chrille, surely you can get the car down with me quintaros and snarky on the 31st?

Edit, thanks for updating the itinerary with my details, AGA - you can also add that I'm on the same outgoing flight as you guys. - you have, cheers. See you at Gatwick about 4am, then

PS - at 40 euro a night, I might just join you in hotel semaphore, Chrille

[Matt Frith]

Disco and I are in Milan on the 30th so give us a call if you are around

[m0ds]

Looks like we will be! I'll blag someone's mobile to call you

Oh, and as always - don't forget to bring your awesome prizes for teh super kwiz!1

I will be donating a Broken Sword II copy (because we've never seen THAT at a Mittens super quiz!!) and some music CD's.

[DutchMarco]

Good of you to say that! I'll pack a cool DVD, I know at least you will like it, Mark, being the short-movie maker you are.
