Ok, ignore this request now. Also thanks to Simon Wilcox. for helping me out 
here.

I also believe others are flying on this flight, so it looks like we have
the official flight for London.pm ;-) and thanks to Jouke we can claim
to have an official London.pm hotel - with minibars and minigolf

Plane tickets are currently 37 quid return via easyjet...
   
   Are there any plans for a group of London PMer's to fly over together or is
   the whole thing going to be ad hoc? 
   
  Needing to get things sorted, we've booked our flights already. I know at
  least one other London.pmer is on the same flight as us (Easyjet from
  Gatwick, 14:45 Wednesday 1st).
  
 
 if anyone else is booking the gatwick departure on the 1/8 and the
 return to gatwick on the 5/8 from easyjet (total cost 62.50) could
 they book an extra ticket and i'll do a funds transfer to their
 account or something
 
 easyjet don't seem to like switch well at least not a switch card
 that expires this month or the one that starts next month
 
 hmmm

site of the 2001 mini golf riot

may not go down well either, i'm not curious how much of the hotel
we can take up

will we get our own floor?

do we have enough airports to give us a private lan?

If we did, who'd pick up the phone bill?

If I pack enough laptops we could have our own irc server though :-)

we could always split it

or do they have unmetered called in Holland? If so and we had
a direct line we could beg a Dutch Monger to call in and
set up ppp to their broadband or similar connection

anyway just having a common Lan may be fun

Of course, whoever owned the gateway would want some QoS in there to
prevent FTPs and napster ;-)
