[Raj]

Got the call from the ticket office today. They wont be sending the tickets out until the 10th October, as they are waiting for some inserts to arrive before despatch. Presume this is the stadium and UEFA regulation info.

 

Flying out 17th Oct from Luton, via Easyjet. Arrive at 17.00

Back on 19th Oct. Arrive 16.55

[Raj]

Excellent. Will is on the same flight out there too.

Have you started your new job yet?

[jon_hall]

Terri work, you being serious?

 

We'll be drunk somewhere before you turn up. Due into Bordeaux about 10am the day before match, fly back mid morning day after.

[Jeff guitar]

Applied for tickets but will be lucky to get them through the club i reckon - but you never know though.

[Raj]

I'm sure it wont take us too long to catch up with you.

[Tetti]

Excellent. Will is on the same flight out there too.

 

 

I have bad memories of sharing a flight with Will

 

 

Have you started your new job yet?

 

 

November. Made sure I could make the Bordeaux home game first, as I wont get much leave there for the rest of the year.

[fyds]

Yes - going en famille and spending a few days in France to make up for the horrors of the summer.

I should imagine him trying to photograph a 35,000 feet ceiling would be disconcerting...

Spill the beans...

[Tetti]

Spill the beans...

 

 

It wasn't beans, it was the curry he had the night before. Quelle surprise.

 

The crew gave up passing through the area he was polluting ( for four whole hours) and just started throwing the beer to us.

[Will]

No call yet, but my application has been logged on the online ticket sales page for some weeks now...

 

I will try to avoid curry on the Monday night - the issue was the combination of curry and Guinness - lethal

[jon_hall]

Was that the empty Sofia flight debacle? I got blamed for one of the bogs getting closed after Anny Rd had been in just before me, the smelly t***.

Got some tips for restaurants the night before etc... Terri has received a copy as well.

 

Got a contact over there and will be meeting her the night before.

I think the flight time has changed.

 

Either that or I have made a mistake. Wouldn't surprise me though, I told Will that I was leaving from Gatwick.

Anything interesting on the restaurant front?

[Will]

Departs 1725 and arrives 1805 according to the Easyjet website

Sounds like it was my mistake then

[Hightown Phil]

Not had the call yet. Well, I have, I just missed it.

 

They haven't rang me back yet.

 

Ring me back you barstewards.

[Sara]

Not going

 

Our lad has grammar school entrance exams that day so I really think I should at least be in the country to support the little fella. It's Andy's birthday as well (not that that matters as much as the little fella )

 

A bit sad really, but there'll be more, and I did drink far too much in Eindhoven!

[jon_hall]

Raj, i have been given a few restaurants from my contact. She will deffo be coming out for a drink, hopefully for a meal. Will let you know once something is agreed. Will be the night before match obviously.

[autumn319]

i'm not going.

i can't take a few days off in mid october.

gutted.

if someone is searching for a ticket,try the french forum.

[Scally Bob]

There's a Food Festival on in Bordeaux all week when we go.

 

Clicky click

 

I wish I'd booked for longer now, though the title of the event "Le Gout" probably tells me it's better I didn't.

I havent given up yet on having a half day trip out to a vineyard. Might try and sort something through the Tourist office. My last away for a while
