Day of Discord : Edinburgh '10

[Pope Pixie Pickle]

I would PM RB and get the hostel details.

[Payne]

And yeah, hostels should be easier to book for a day or two outside of the festival weekend.

[Roaring Biscuit!]

Me and Payne were thinking we could do picnic stuffs for peeps in exchange for being bribed with booze.

Any takers?

Um yes? I think? We give you booze, you give us ... haggis? meat pies?

Also, I finally managed to contact my friends in Edinbugh (that I stayed at in DOD08), but they're busy that weekend

Um, so, what are my other options for surviving the night there? Without having to sleep under a cricket stadium? :-P

I suppose hostels are easier to book outside of the festival weeks, yeah?

picnic yes

was looking at this place, as I am literally just going to sleep there so I don't have to fuck off 7pm

9 pounds a night that's not bad at all, indeed, for just a place to crash those beds look affordably sleepable!

Hey, Regret, have you thought about crashing places yet?

If we all stay in the same place (such as Brodies), it's probably most convenient for getting about and back.

Also, ATTENTION SYNAPTYX!! maybe you know about this already, but my friend sent me this link: http://www.taxitravels.co.uk/nightbus/
Which is a bus that goes back and from kirkcaldy, so maybe you don't have to leave at 23h to catch the last train this year?



Pixie I'm not allergic to anything! And there are hardly any foods that I don't like.

[Pope Pixie Pickle]

So, so far that is food for 4.

Any more takers on the lunch stuff need to speak up.

About the booze-bribes, I'm not sure if I can bring a bottle of Dutch Booze over, btw. Since I'll be travelling with hand luggage only, and you can't bring any liquids in hand luggage and such ... I could ask them if jello shots are okay?

Although whatever you buy in the tax-free area is considered "safe". Except Bremen is a tiny airport I forget what their taxfree booze shop looks like. Buuuuuut it is in GERMANY, which means that, even though we might not be able to get Weduwe Joustra (just to show you spags what an average non-disgusting bitter tastes like instead of Jaeger), strong liquor is nearly half-price in Germany, so tax-free even cheaper maybe (yeah the difference is in the taxes also, but "tax free" shops in Schiphol are still expensive as fuck).

And if all else fails we'll get some in the UK :-P Probably beers then, because we don't need to carry them that far and I prefer beers over strong liquor for not getting immediately completely shitfaced.

i looked into getting a hostel reservation thingy, but it demanded a creditcard  and i no have, so if i could impose on you to arrange this too i will do a happy dance, buy you a beer, give you a hug and (of course) give you the monies for my lodgings.


My diet data:
Don't force me to drink a lot milk unless you want me to fart alot.
I need a lot of iron in my diet or i get lightheaded, but it takes about 2 weeks of no red meat (or other high iron food) before i feel anything, so don't worry about that too much.
aka nothing important.

[Roaring Biscuit!]

i can bring teh alcohols, probably just whatever survives the undoubtably riotous week following end of exams here, also, Lady Biscuit may attend, she is vegetarian, but she ain't told me whether she really wants to come or not yet.

Um I am unable to book stuff by card as the budget is low and it looks like we will be drinking in pubs, so just buy me and Payne a pint. I also only has nets on my phone which usually means that I cannot buy stuff online.

Bring your girl, RB it would be cool!

So with regret that's 5 for food, so far.

I tried to load the hostel page on my phone and it crashed my phone without even loading.

DoD was supposed to be 5.23, what's the DEAL?!

We decided to shift the date to some time when a load of people could actually be there!

[Jasper]

Cool!

It just sounds so fun that I was getting impatient to hear about it.
