Woods in Hertfordshire that people have access to…where do I sign up? Hello, I’m new to this thread, for some reason or other I’d never thought to look in on the meetups and social chatter! Unfortunately I have nothing to bring to the group in terms of access to woodlands and...

Question for Woody. If (for any reason) we are struggling to do the "as you arrive" bit because flights are delayed due to snakes on the plane, the wrong kind of ice, baggege handllers can't be ar@*ed to get out of bed etc. What's a good number to contact you on and let you know?

Hi Peter, check out this link. It lists all the best deals both in shop and by post. http://travelmoney.moneysavingexpert.com/holiday-money/#results

Cheers Tom, I've just established that’s about the same size as my tent. I've just tried packing that in my kit bag with all the stuff I'm taking and it just ain't gonna fit! Really appreciate the offer, but I think I'm going to have to go with the rental from Woody's guys locally. Thanks again...

Cheers Tom. And thanks Woody for being flexible on the gear rental. Tom, roughly how big it is so I know how much space to leave in my kit bag? At present I have virtually no hand luggage. Do you think I could take it on as hand luggage to save repacking at the airport? I'm taking a camera...

cheers for confirming woody. As always timing is everthing....and mine's rubish! Tom has just offered up a bag for collection at heathrow and i'm on the same plane. Would it be bad form to opt out of the rental in norway in favour of tom's offer. If it causes you a problem or leaves you out of...

Thanks for confirming the sleeping bag hire. If we are hiring do we need to bring our own liners or will they be provided? Cheers Stu

I've had exactly the same experince. I went down to spain on a monach flight and they insited on rapping the entire rucksack in some gient cling film claiming that the straps might get caught in the handelling machines!

I'm also flying out on BA0762 and will be aiming to get to Heathrow around 6ish on Sunday morning. I'm counting 3 others aiming for this flight based on the conversations on this thread, Leonidas, Chris the Cat and Wolfman. Is this tallying up? It sounds like a great plan to meet up, and a...

I'm looking at the Ryanair flight from Stanstead. I've not worked out the baggage yet, 15kg isn't a lot and the second 15kg pushes it up a lot. I'll keep you posted as it would be good to travel with other group members

Hi Tom, what's the status with the group booking? I noted the quote runs out today and at last count there were 9 interested. If we're doing the group booking I'll get you the deposit I can do a bank transfer. If not I think I'll book this weekend otherwise I'll keep putting it off and it'll be...

Cheers Tom. As I suspected Ryanair don't fly to Gardermoen (who'd have thought Oslo would have 3 airports!). I'll do some research and get back to you regarding the UK to Oslo leg of the journey. I'm definitely in for the Oslo onwards group booking. Cheers Stu

Hello, I'm raising that 13 and making it 14! Deposit paid and now trying to catch up with you guys on the organisation front! Tom, I'm in for the group booking for the Oslo to Bardfoss leg of the trip. I probably try and get the same flights from Heathrow as well. I live near Luton, but...
