Emil,
... I hate you.
😉

:angel:

Yeah, I was wondering about the Emil-hatred thing too... But if that's the in thing now, I'll join in too.

Only if you buy my Elmar I 50/2.8 first.

Something about his Nordic bokeh king?😀

:angel:

😕
uhm, still trying to understand who's here and when before the weekend...
Wednesday: is there only Lluis? Kully, Emil, Lluis what about a late nite pizza?
Thursday: Luis, Kully and friend, Emil, Simon and girlfriend, Yannick and girlfriend, Lawrence.
Friday: trip in the countryside (Luis, Kully and friend, Emil, Simon and girlfriend, Yannick and girlfriend, Lawrence.)
Saturday and Sunday are ok
Let me know 🙂

Not quite right Nico, I won't be arriving in Pisa until Thursday afternoon. My flight is to land in Bologna at 11.45AM and then I need to make my way to Pisa (~2h by train).

I updated the first post with the 'when' of those people who have said they will come.

kully, you're a hero.
a bit smaller in body height than the classic hero maybe, but a hero.
seriously.
thanks.

 

[sinetsin]

Yeah! Well done Kully!🙂

 

[kully]

So.. more like quasimodo helping an old lady across the road?

😛

The bells....!

Ok, looks like I'll be able to get to Florence sometime on Friday. Just trying to find a direct flight that gets in earlier than 22.55. Otherwise it looks like I'll be going for the Ryanair option and flying to Pisa just as everyone else leaves😡

Haven't sorted a place to stay yet, not until I know when and where I'll be landing, but will try the places Kully & Lawrence linked to first. Having to sort this via my phone as work is keeping me away from home...iPhones aren't the best way to find and book stuff!! 😀

I'll post again when I know more... though if anyone knows of any good deals let me know!

Cheers chaps, looking forward to it

 

[kully]

Simon,

check www.opodo.co.uk

for example, Friday >> Sunday return, fully inclusive with BA is £120 (Gatwick).

There are also evening flights to Pisa on the Thursday - you got ****e to do on Friday day?

 

[OurManInTangier]

I'm also looking forward to seeing Kully in his super hero uniform, assuming it's not lycra...😉

 

[OurManInTangier]

Crickey that was quick, I'll take a look... thanks Kully

Hi,
I am glad to say that we (me and my girlfriend) will be in Florence for
that fantastic event!
We come from Bologna (100km from Florence, circa).

Matteo Gandolfi (and Giulia)

 

[OurManInTangier]

Not booked yet but I'm planning to fly into Pisa on the morning of the 9th and catch a train into Florence, hopefully arriving around noon. Flying out of Pisa at 18:45 on the 11th.

I'll sort bookings and accomodation when I get home tomorrow. Thanks for all the help Kully - my phone's battery is about to die so it was a great help!

 

[nico]

Great, great job Kully!
Glad to know that also Simon(OMIT) and Matteo will join the bunch!
ciao

 

[lawrence]

Saturday and Sunday : Florence and Florence and FLorence
Monday ... anything up guys (I have a couple of ideas if there's still someone around)?
Ciao

I'll be about all day Monday -- my flight leaves from Florence airport @ 18:10 -- so any ideas are welcome!

 

[kully]

Rob, Lluis and me are also around on Monday.

 

[javabean]

Hi all,


Please count me in too, tentatively.

Cheers,

javabean.

Too bad I will be in Italy Mar 27- Apr 5. Some days in Florence and others at Lake Como, Milan, etc. I hope it is not too cold then. Would have preferred a later date, maybe May but I could not pass up the plane fares at a good price, Air France.
Joe

 

[tennis-joe]

We will be at Hotel California, near the Duomo. Wish it would have been a later date and meet other RRF people. We intend one day to go to Fiesole. It offers a beautiful ride and and a wonderful restaurant when we went last year.

[MartinP]

?!?!?! It's only about seven or eight weeks to go or something. I will look at flights this weekend. Probably to Pisa, then train/coach, errrrmmm. So I'm a "definite maybe", and I'll be happier this time 'cos my knee feels better, and I'll bring more film too.
🙂

 

[SimonSawSunlight]

aaaah yes. more film. me too.
