Can we ensure the painting prize actually goes to someone who painted their own team please?

It's the only prize I even have a chance of getting I reckon...

Me and Max will be coming over, subject to financial restrictions (i.e. flights & accom.).

Having already been to Amsterdam before I feel it's my duty as a loyal friend to introduce Max to the cultural delights of the city...

BTW, how long is the "Lunch Break" on each day (& how far from the city centre is the event)???

Any offers of beds/couch/floor/cardboard boxes greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

lunchbreaks are twice, half an hour..... If you're able to finish al little earlier, then your breaks are longer.......
http://www.nl.placestostay.com/ is the best option I found for booking, although I think better ones might be around....
Unfortunately, smoking grass is unprohibited inside the locality. Outside smoking is ofcourse possible, but with cheap neer and warm snacks, I can't really complain.......
The center is a 5 minute walk.

Gonna be booking accommodation for a TBB doss-house sometime Real Soon Now - just as soon as I recover from my NYE festivities.

Got a list of people who were keen, I'll find the biggest place I can then work through the list. I'll keep y'all posted.

OK, so if the centre is 5 min walk, double that for Max (thus preventing heart failure from overexertion), 2 min (& 50 Euros) for a shag

(inc. 1m30s to undress/dress and 20 secs to pay), 8 mins for a light sleep

and to recover and 10 mins back.

Max, great news - you CAN get a shag in between games mate!!

Prince - is there an address and postcode (or dutch equivalent) for the venue?

I wrote it again but if necesary (??) I can arrange two, maybe (very maybe) three sleeping places at my house. It takes a 30 minutes train trip but then .. Hey it's cheap

Bloody tourists always lower the tone, huh Lucy?

PS Max, watch out, some of those ladies aren't actually ladies...

The Mac Lads "I've been cheated tonight... transvestite...." springs to mind..

Cheers DW.

Norse, perhaps you could point those "genuine" ones out to Max? Poor lad gets easily confused.

No, I don't have to buy my own tickets either. I've won or earned free entry to 3 events this year.

Stop boasting!!

You'll still have to buy a ticket for T5 (2)...

unless you win the Dutch Open of course..

Redfang · Post by **Redfang** » Fri Jan 10, 2003 10:38 am

I've gotta learn how to win stuff...

Winning is free entry and minis, free entry and minis is power, power is winning; it's a circle, it just keeps strengthening itself!

How can I break into the circle...
