    Yes not long to go at all. Hopefully it won’t be too cold over there. We look forward to meeting you and your wife!

    Not used to the cold so hopefully it will be ok. Seems quite cold over there at the moment.
    Looking forward to meeting you & your friend too.

    I heard it’s been cold over there at the moment as well. Hopefully it changes in the next few weeks before we get there. Are you going to be in London a few days earlier or just fly in on the day of the tour? We noticed there’s a meeting the night before the tour to meet everyone :-)

    We arriving in London the day before the tour (12th of March). How about you? Hoping to get in some site seeing. Also noticed the meeting the night before, good to meet the fellow travellers!
    Just received my Schengen Visa today so all the important bits are done :-)

    We will be in London about 3 days before. You should have a look at the london pass (http://www.londonpass.com) you can pay for all your travel and entry fee in advance. We bought the 3 day pass and the travel alone should be good because we can hop on various transports. The meet and greet should be good. Oh that’s good news with your visa – we didn’t have to apply for any visas.

    Lucky you for not having to get Visa’s. Uk visa was quite pricey.
    Thanks for the tip on the London pass, will definately look into it!

    Not long to go now for you either. Don’t be too worried about forgetting something as you can always buy it overseas if you really need it! If not if I have something you need your more then welcome to it! We are off on a flight this morning so we’ll see you in a couple of days. Have a safe flight and definitely meet you on the other side :-)
