Yep, thats the one that Tom & Harry are going to be on. (I wont be there.)
If they're up for that, I'll book it tonight or tomorrow am.

Luton latecomers' update:
The transfer is booked & paid for (but not confirmed by the local bus company yet):
21st Jan: Grenoble Airport -> AlpeD ....... 28th Jan: AlpeD -> Grenoble
Arijit (HarryCambs) ........................................ Arijit (HarryCambs)
Tom (Punk_Rallye) ........................................ Tom (Punk_Rallye)
Nick (nickmotture) ......................................... Sean (Soup)
The price went up a bit I'm afraid - now 56euros each way so...
Nick, when we get there you owe me 56euros.
Arijit & Tom, you owe me 112euros.
(And a beer )
Tom - I know you never opted in, I didn't want to wait any longer for you to get back to me and assumed you'd want to join us. If you don't want the transfer *to* the resort, no probs, just let me know asap and i can cancel you off it.
Nick - the public buses back to the airport need to be booked 48 hours in advance to guarantee a seat. (Though you'd be very unlucky not to get one on a Wednesday morning). The best thing would be to nip into the VFD office on Monday morning to get your ticket, it'll be no hassle.
I'll pm/email you guys the details when I get the confirmation.

Bad news guys (Nick, Tom & Arijit):
The local bus company have got back to me, and they can only do the transfer up to the resort about 2 hours after you land. Its still less hassle than the public bus, but its beginning to look like it wont necessarily be any quicker. I need to give them an answer one way or the other tomorrow morning, so if I don't hear from you I'm going to assume you're still in.
Also, because I'm not going to be with you, it'd be a good idea if you could pm me your mobile numbers (if you have a mobile that'll work in France - ie: you've got 'roaming' enabled), and I'll pass them on so the driver can contact you on the day.
The return transfer on the 28th is unaffected by this.

Sorted (finally).
Harry, Tom & Nick, you have mail.
