I'm in. Firstly, big thanks to Matt for offering to sort this out and Hans his able assistant on the ground. I'll take a single room at the Hotel Royal, arrive Sunday 14th July for 5 nights, depart Friday 19th. Let me know what deposits are required and when you want them. I'll sort out ferries shortly.

I've booked out on the 13th at 10am. Have a pootle round France into Luxembourg. Find a cheap overnight and a nice easy day Sunday to Monschau. Same coming back with the 16:00 ferry on the 21st of July. I'll have a pootle up through Belgium into Holland on Friday and Saturday and down to ferry Sunday. Roll on July!!
Sadly I don't have the time (according to SWMBO <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rotflmmfao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmmfao:' /> ) for an extended tour, so I'll be booking a morning crossing on the 14th and and afternoon crossing on the 19th. I'll probably overnight in Canterbury again before & after both crossings rather than try & get from Monschau to Liverpool in one day! I'll post my ferry details when I make the booking.

Sorry Matt, I misread your post and thought it was Matlock's. I'm on the same crossings as you and am fine for a pootle around France and Luxembourg too.

2004 900 - Blue with lots of goodies
2012 900 - Still adding shiny bits. Was black, changed to white and now back to black again.

Have you ever lent someone 20 quid and never seen it again? It was probably worth it.

That's ok matey. I think February we need to get ideas of numbers for the hotel though.

You might want to consider a more leisurely spin than last time Alex... <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ambusy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':ambusy:' />
Thanks to Limbo I learned about the progess of the discussions here.
I am certainly interested in joining your tour, arriving from more or less the opposite direction. Some personal considerations however:
Just the month before we have our German meeting not too far from Monschau
At the weekend of the RTT start I would like to pay a family visit for a birthday, so I may arrive only on Monday (not decided yet)
As I have more family near the Cologne area, I may drop out for a day to visit them.
So I am not fully sure about my detailed schedule, and I hope you don't mind me dropping out of your tours for a day. Beside that I am looking forward to meeting many of you again. Let me know if I can be helpful for any communication or financial transaction between the Islands and the continent <img src='http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Hi Lars
Great to hear from you. More than welcome to drop in and out as you like matey. This thread is mainly for the accommodation side of things. We will firm up days out next year. If you sort your own hotel out let us know. Look forward to meeting you again.
