Badges are now finished for ALL of those whose names appear on Baggies list on pg63 as attending the convention - although I haven't done one for 'Mr Baggie', would he like one?
I'm not sure how often I'll get in here this week to check arrangements and stuff, so if I say that I will sit with my little bag of badges in the foyer of the hotel from 5 - 5.30 on the Friday if people want to collect them from me then? For those of you who won't be around then, I can leave them with someone else or you could just look for me on the Saturday morning. Does that sound okay?
Have fun with your packingsigpic

ETA : See this link :http://www.airwise.com/airports/euro...LHRT4_03a.html
Full map of Terminal 4 .ATM facilities etc all there .Barclays and Link ATMs by Thomas Cook Bureau de change.Bus departures etc ..all you need there .(Theoretically speaking. )

Originally posted by ChopinGalI know hotel is near the airport but, again, would really appreciate someone walking me through the bus routes once again and someone mentioned about "construction" earlier and how that affected the buses.

I know we've posted about this but I don't have a printer on my home PC and much too busy next two days with packing and running errands and then back to students tomorrow into evening to even play with this ... can someone kindly remind me EXACTLY what transport I'm looking for and if it's a free line or if not, what's usual charge?

Okay ... I have to start some errands. Will wait to hear! Bless you!

When you arrive at Terminal 4 you will have to use the 'Heathrow Express' (free service) to take you to Terminal 1. From there you catch the Hoppa Bus number 'H2', which costs £3. This will take you directly to the hotel. I'm sure there will be ATM machines inside the airport for you to obtain money.
I hope that helps.sigpic

Just a quick note to say this is the last evening I'll be able to post on here until after the Event. I wish you all a safe and speedy journey from wherever in the world you are travelling from, and safe arrival here in dear old London. I look forward to meeting you all at some time during the weekend to put faces to those so familiar names.
Take care all,
Julia
Gabit
