Hi Everyone,
My name is Adrian, I am from Como in Perth Western Australia and am doing a solo trip on your tour. I own a real estate business and just decided lifes too short and so I booked myself a well deserved break!

I'm 34 and I am ready to party so age is only a number right!

I look forward to meeting you all over in London. I fly out of Perth on 3rd September and arrive on the 4th in London.

Adrian

Hi everyone.. hoping all is well and everyone is getting excited for our big adventure because i know I am. I am just wondering what is the consensus amongst the group... are you guys packing a back pack or a suitcase. i know those of you traveling before or after the tour are probably bringing a back pack but I am not sure if I am traveling after the tour. i am not sure that I want to lug around a heavy bag everyday and I feel pulling a suitcase on wheels might be easier. I am also thinking that I might be able to pack a lot more in a suit case (is anyone else having difficulties figuring out what to pack?)am i the only one freaking out about this?

cheers
Shelby

cant wait to meet up for drinks Smiler so much we wanna do before the tour leaves..we def have2 chek out the ministry of sound club.. soo xcited!
hey shelby Smiler we were confused about luggage too, but have decided on light-weight suitcases with wheels prob wont be the easiest option (have heard about steps & cobble streets etc) but we will need the extra room and dont think will be able to carry a heavy load for long! dnt kno if that helps orr??!

Hi All

I have just booked myself on the European Explorer with Mykonos option today ... I managed to secure the last place, so looks like we have a full tour Smiler

Like many of you I am travelling solo, but I am looking forward to it.

A little about me ... I am 29, female, South African and have lived in London for 8 years, but have just resigned from my job and am looking for a bit of adventure and feel that I couldn't leave the UK without a bit more European travel ... so here I am.

It would be great to meet up beforehand to break the ice ... howz about Saturday 6th Sept late afternoon / early evening somewhere in London that is central for the guys that would have just flown in.

Looking forward to the trip and meeting all of you, just over 5 weeks now !

Cheers
Taryn

hey everyone

we are looking forward to metting everyone so much and getting this show on the road.

Sound like a great idea to meet up on the 6th and get to know everyone. Maybe we can all go out after that tour meeting we have at the Royal National.

Does anyone know what time the tour meeting is?

Is everyone coming to the meeting?

See you all VERY SOON!!!! EURO 2008 YEAH!!!!
