  1. Phoned them on Tuesday re what they'd do with any tickets not collected at the Stadium pick up. Was told they couldn't sell any in case the actual ticketholder was just late getting there. Then told there was no pickup at the stadium anyway. Pickups are at a Bratislava hotel on Monday night and a Trnava hotel on Tuesday - and then the lady said "the last pick-up point is at the stadium". A complete contradiction to her opening statement. How is this a fair and transparent way to treat Members who rely on them for accurate information
  2. Wetherspoons is the normal TA one. Turn right after clearing Security and walk at least 100 yards past WH Smith etc. My Hotel is halfway between airport and city centre, so happy to share and then meet up again later.
  3. If it's with EasyJet at 13.20, see you in the bar at Ed.
  4. Monday: Ezy Ed to Luton. Ryan-scare Luton to Brat - in at 20.00. Train to Trnava that night for 2 nights. Home on Thur: Vienna to Brussels then onto Ed. Home at 22.00. All Brussels Airlines
  5. And the other building is..... Really interested in this thread as it's not often the building you work in each day receives so much attention
  6. Or we could just do the Braveheart Reverse Salute with our kilts That would be an appropriate response
  7. Offer of probable accom still there though.
  8. Us Honest Men need to stick together !! I've a room booked for 2 in Trnava for match night only but now looking at Plan B which could involve releasing this to you. Booked it in April for £70. Hotel is now booked out. PM me nearer to the weekend. Or you can come and buy me a pint in Prestwick on Friday night after the Races!
  9. I joined as a Newbie, went on the waiting list and got one on Tuesday when I phoned to check my progress. This has happened twice so strongly believe that a polite follow-up phone call does the biz.
  10. I joined as a New Member 10 days ago and asked to be put on a waiting list. Heard nothing for a week but when I phoned them on Tuesday morning, lo and behold, they were just about to phone me to offer me a returned ticket. Now sorted though I have to pick it up in Prague.
  11. Also looking for a ticket - discretion assured Flights and hotels booked months ago. Now re-joined the Travel Club having had to take a few years out. SFA replied to my enquiry saying they are doubtful one will become available for me. I think they might be underestimating the Granny Flu epidemic that is about to hit us.
  12. Thought this excerpt from Wubbs Guide deserves a more prominent posittion. Like we need encouraging...!!! http://www.thepub.cz/praha-1/?lng=en THE PUB belongs to a chain of pubs which deliver a reasonable drinking and eating experience. The serve up some traditional Czech dishes and the burgers are decent, however the best feature is undoubtedly the numerous tables that provide beer taps that enable you to tap your own Pilsner Urquell instead of having to wait for the bar staff. Tables compete against one another, whilst the pub competes with other pubs throughout Prague, the Czech Republic, and Europe. Live results displayed on a large screen. Should come with a warning.
  13. For my last few trips I've used a REVOLUT card - which you use like a debit or credit card. https://revolut.com/ Either pay over the counter or use it to withdraw at a hole in the wall. It worked well in Tbilisi - so should be fine for Prague. It guarantees the best exchange rate at the time and you can see exactly what you've spent (or topped up) via an easy-to-use App. Having previously linked it your nomal UK debit or credit card, you can top up the balance on your Revolut in seconds - assuming you've got enough dosh in your UK account !!
  14. Sounds like we have a couple of options. It's really just a question of how long we want to go without a beer ? See you in the bar at Ed about 06.30 on Tuesday
  15. Just booked EA Hotel Rokoko via Booking.com. Great reviews and overlooks Wenceslas Square. £58/night for a double/twin incl brekkie. Can cancel free up to the Sunday. Tues night till Friday morning. EZY Ed direct to Prague Tues 22. Home on 25th via Brussels -into Ed @ 3.20
