Crete, Greece, April 2017

[rosko]

I will not come this time. It's too short for me to organise well the trip. In addition, I wanted to come with my girlfriend this time as we thought her holidays were starting from beginning of april, but we actually saw the 2018 calendar. The non expansive flights made us suspicious and we checked : her Easter holidays starts on the 10th of April !

I wish a very good time for those going there.

Francis.

Oh well, there will be a next time around for an NG event, I'm sure of that.

A pity though. But cannot be helped.

I have communicated with Arkadi hotel and here is the story. Bjorn and Bent have booked rooms thru the net. The booking rate is higher than the
the rate mentioned in their offer, which was valid until Jan 27. For the bookings before Jan 27 (Bjorn, Bent(s), me) the rate offered initially is valid.
For bookings made from now on the on line (Internet) rates apply.
To Bjorn and Bent: Cancel your on line reservations. Send an email to Arkadi telling them to book the rooms for April 4-11. Make reference to their offer to me (Elias Sideris), so they will charge the offer rate. Small group, big time.

I have cancelled my initial booking and received a new, at a lower price. The hotel honours its offer, good to know.

[Bent Hjarbo]

I mailed the hotel, hope things vent well, they got my card number
And canceled my previous booking.

arghh. Another no-show for me. I am on a trip late march/early april.
Wish y'all lots of fun

[Bent Hjarbo]

Bjørn did you hire the var from Goldcar throug Norvigean?
Consider renting one as well.
Be Bent

[Bjørn Rørslett]

Nah. I got one through an American agency. ACE or something. Very cheap, but then I'll make do with a small car anyway.

[Bent Hjarbo]

Ok, thanks 

[David Paterson]

It seems there are still rooms available at the Arkadi, so I am thinking of joining the group - all you hooligans need someone to maintain a litlle order.   

 How many are going? Who? Is a list being maintained somewhere?

[elsid]

Hello David,
So far, Bjorn, Bent with wife, and me are on the list. Join us.

[Bjørn Rørslett]

Yes, extremely pleased if you join.

[Bent Hjarbo]

Yes please join

[David Paterson]

I'm really sorry, but things have suddenly changed since this morning - the gallery which is holding the next showing of my current exhibition has asked me to move the start-date from 1st April to the 8th. I can't really refuse, and I do have to be there, at least on the 7th for the hanging and the 8th for the opening.

So, very sorry, but it's no go Crete.

[Bent Hjarbo]

Just rented a small car, then all can be transported
