Won't be able to confirm until at least May, but if I'm coming this year I reckon I'll sort my own hotel out this year anyway.
Okey doke! I will send a reminder PM sometime then :p

Okies. Anything I can do to help right now?

Also, put both me and Xitel as confirmed. And if anything needs paying, just tell me and I'll double it to include him ^_^
Hmmm, well I can't book the hostel myself (mum won't let me) And I don't want you to do it 'cause you lost out on money last year :/

So we need to scout around for someone who can book it for us

That's why they call you:

So if you're near the area you won't be needing a place at the hostel right? :0 'cause we're pretty full >.< I'm trying to get as many people as possible to save money by staying at home/relatives etc. ^^

Look, whoever's booking the hostel needs to start collecting money straight away. It's gonna cost a huge amount, especially for 32 of us, and you cannot expect anyone to pay all that out their own balance.

If no one volunteers by the end of the day, I will take it on again.

D: N'awww but you did it last year.

Wait till I hear back from Red Spy at least, he's asking how much the deposit is to reserve the rooms :/ otherwise we'd have to pray no one takes them (I doubt we'd be so lucky,)
Other option is a different hostel, or having 2 hostel groups at different hostels :/

And I'm asking my dad for work, but he hasnt got anything till Feb for me >.< so I'm waiting on my Job Seekers allowance, as soon as I get enough I will send it to whoever is doing the hostel at the time ^^

I'm afraid it's a thorough 'maybe'. By "in the area" I meant that I'm at university down south, therefore closer than I would be than if I was still in Newcastle... It's still something like a three hour coach trip, I think. But I guess if it came to it then I wouldn't mind doing that! Gotta cram in them Escapees....

Hmmm, if its that much of a trip we can try and get you in the hostel :0

Worst comes to worst, the people with more money to spare will have to book their own hotel rooms >.<

As I posted in the group hostel should come to just under 700GBP total. I'm quite willing to forward 100-200 GBP if needed to get the booking.

EDIT: sorry made a calculation error, that 700GBP is per night. Total should be 1354GBP.

Just keep me posted. I would prefer to be in the hostel, but if me being there means someone else misses out then I have no qualms with coaching it.

That's pretty generous of you :/

I guess we'll see what the deposit comes too, if you do end up doing that I'll make sure you get the money back somehow :0
(could have certain members owe you money I guess, the ones we know can get it xD)

Seventeen beds for dudes and a three bed private suite for girls, plus deposit, comes up at a thousand and sixty one squid dorrah euros.
I cannot be in charge of it (locality, my mother killing me, etc.), but I will do all I can to help.

Hopefully, assuming we don't need it for groceries, petrol and such, I may be able to send an extra hundred.

Apparently there are 32 beds... so you've lost count of something (or I have?)

Anywho, does this mean we are doing separate gender rooms again? :/

I am probably booking wrong. But still, that is pretty expensive.

And yeah, it said the public dorms were male only.
So I guess the girls are going to have to dish out an extra ten or so pounds.
Assuming we are still looking at the Travel Joy hostel.

*fake moustache* But I am male ',:{/

And we're just gonna spread the costs equally I think, that way its generally cheaper for everyone.
