can i be in the Goldilocks apartment? (neither too late nor too early)

lithos · « **Reply #21 on:** March 05, 2009, 01:34:51 pm »

when we have the definitive listing we can argue the toss, given we are all on the same plane we can finalise when
at airport if there is any uncertaintiy - but we need to have it sorted beforehand IMHO :-)

how many beds are in the bedroom of the the one bedroom places (i had to think about that!)

CANUCK · « **Reply #22 on:** March 05, 2009, 01:40:20 pm »

what does IMHO mean?

Simon C · « **Reply #23 on:** March 05, 2009, 01:56:50 pm »

1. double room with an extra bed in that room, plus 3 beds in the living area.
2. double room, plus 2 beds in the living area.
3. double room plus twin room plus 1 bed in living area.

Cef's in Brazil at the moment and will know when he gets back (towards the end of next week) whether he's coming.

In My _not-very-Humble Opinion

CANUCK · « **Reply #25 on:** March 05, 2009, 04:00:39 pm »

well if Cef's not coming Julie, Rob, PeteB and I could go for the option with double and 2 in living room - as we're the late risers. IMHO (as Rob would say)

Simon C · « **Reply #26 on:** March 05, 2009, 04:02:16 pm »

i guess we'll have to wait for cef to get back and tell us what he's doing!

Thanks. Cala Gonone. I hope the street addresses of the flats are on the booking form or we'll never find where home is?

Simon C · « **Reply #30 on:** March 13, 2009, 04:20:13 pm »

We're going to phone/text Salvatore (the landlord) when we get there and he's going to meet us and show us where to go

lithos · « **Reply #31 on:** March 15, 2009, 04:49:07 pm »

can we get a postcode or equivalent for the GPS'd up posse ?

we have 15 place and 12/13 people - is that the latest ?

Simon C · « **Reply #32 on:** March 15, 2009, 04:58:50 pm »

Eh? No, we have 15 places and either 14 or 15 people. Unless someone else has cancelled and forgotten to tell me ;-)

Anyone heard from Cef? He said he'd let me know by last Thursday, but still no word.

lithos · « **Reply #33 on:** March 15, 2009, 05:11:56 pm »

Just heard from Cef and he's not coming, as he'll be in Sao Paulo instead. It's a hard life.

So the 6-bed house can be a 5-bed house (ie without having to fit a 3rd person in one of the doubles).

We have:
Pre-dawn start: 5 beds (1 double 1 twin or double, 1 in living area). me, Carmen, Alan + 2
Morning start: 5 beds (1 double or twin + 3 in living area). Peri, Dave D + 3
Mid-afternoon start: 4 beds (1 double + 2 in living area). Rob, Jules, Tracey, Pete B.

For anyone not there last year, the "very early" and "not quite so early" starters were much the same thing in practice, and usually ended up setting off at the same time.
The "duvet day" house were usually an hour or two behind, and then proceeded to climb at least as many routes as the others, but in less time.

or so cefyn claimed (adopts 'but I have my doubts' expression)

Gravityhurts · « **Reply #37 on:** March 20, 2009, 04:33:33 pm »

My I suggest those who havent blagged a bed, blag one now. it will be easier to allocate, er, I mean get volunteers, to drive a car parked outside the house you're sleeping in. I know it sounds picky but last year even though the houses were in the same terrace one house had one driver and another had twenty drivers (or close to it, it seemed) and it affected flexibility and increased dithering time first thing.

"and increased dithering time first thing"

You say that like its a bad thing...
