Don't forget the following -
Check-in: Arrival at Sterling check-in desk must be 2 hours before the planned departure.
Check-in starts 2 hours before the planned departure. The check-in desk closes 40 minutes before departure of international flights and 20 minutes before departure of domestic flights.
This means we all need to be there at 4.30pm.
Dont forget those that can drive must bring a driving licence. I would ask that all UK drivers bring a licence and be prepared to drive.
We will also need to take Danish Krone - this is to cover The hire cars, fuel and Bedding. Also take some food money.
You must have a fishing licence also
See you all at Gatwick
Hoppy!!!!!!

I'd just like to wish all of you making the trip the best of luck! To say I'm envious is a major understatement ( I'm convinced it was a conspiracy to go during school term time!) and I'm sure you'll have a brilliant time. One day I'll go there, stand in the salt and chuck weird fluff at the horizon. A word of caution - no matter what he says or how he acts - Tuniwes is a dangerous man who, due to his own efforts alone, has considerably reduced my life expectancy.

Keep your fingers on the alt-tab keys whilst expounding the finer points of common denominators to 8c Paul and we'll try and keep you in touch via the web. Just think about how raw the gut shot crow will sound in a Baltic sunset. There, that should have shaved a few more seconds off ;D ;D Ian

Just found this - driving info see have a look t www.alltraveldenmark.com/Denmark/Car_Rental/Driving_Tips.htmCan I use my domestic licence in Denmark? A driving licence issued in one of the EC countries is valid. The licence must be carried at all times when driving. If you are stopped without the licence in your possession, you can be charged a high fine. What documents may i need to carry? It is advisable to carry your driving license, insurance certificate and vehicle registration, along with your passport. What terms may I find useful when driving in Denmark? Unleaded gasoline - blyfri benzin Diesel - diesel Gas station - benzin tank Toll - apgift parking - parkering Exit - udkorsel Entrance - indkorsel Detour - omvej Hospital - sygehus Police - politi Police station - politi station See you all in Billund on 17th may !

I HAVE BEEN ON THE TELEPHONE TO STRIRLING ALL MORNING.
I HAVE BEEN ASSURED IN THE LAST 5 MINUTES THAT THE STRIKE ACTION HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
I HAVE ALSO BEEN ASSURED THAT IF THERE IS A STRIKE, THAT THE AIRLINE WILL GET US TO OUR DESTINATION AS PLANNED
Panic is over!
To say i was upset was an understatement - roll on Denmark see you Thursday!
Hoppy!
