Ouch sounds like an extra little blag to the journey. For what it's worth you're welcome to leave your car at my gaff and get the coach from Manc?
Incidentally at the minute it only looks like about 15 or so of us are getting the coach - might be some room to stretch out!* ...or it might be a coach like 'Daves Coaches' from Gavin and Stacey!!

| Tamworth's carpark is not free, so you might have a big bill when you return. As previously said, a nice residential area close by is probably your best bet. |

The Manchester pickup has been cancelled by OutGoing and I understand that the two people who were coming from there are now being picked up at Cas and Hemel!
Coach times are here.
www.snowboardclub.co.uk/events-wb12.html#travel
We got these today and originally I was told we would be leaving Mayrhofen at 6.30pm on the Friday night! You can imagine my "surprise"! Anyway, Outgoing were very accommodating and agreed to shift it back to Saturday afternoon, which is awesome. It means an early arrival back in the UK on Sunday 12th February as originally expected.
We do have spare places on the coach, which we are making available to anybody who wants them. If you know anybody who might be interested they can contact stu@soulsports.co.uk £125 return or £70 one-way.
We originally expected to have to cancel the coach as we didn't have enough people. But SCUK are instead forking out around £1500 to keep it on, so any help would be appreciated if you can spread the word by Facebook, etc. |

| We might need the spare coach seats for the return journey if the airport coach is still leaving at 12. I know they said that the flights listed will be accommodated but I thought this would have been changed by now.. |

Those new times seem pretty good - much better than the original estimates
Is there any chance of a pickup somewhere between Tam and Hemel? There's a big ass distance between the two places, and us peeps in the midlands area would have to travel up to Tam by car just to come back down the same motorway on the coach
Cheers. |

Pickups won't change I'm afraid. Tamworth... in the Midlands I think... Hemel isn't that far and I think you can probably leave you car there too. Just let me know if you switch pickups.
I don't think the times for the transfers have been published yet, but as everybody arrives in Munich within 15 minutes of each other inbound is easy. Haven't looked in details at outgoing, but the info will be in the details being sent out by Outgoing on Friday I understand. |

I had planned to watch a few videos on my phone but I've just realised the battery won't last that long - anyone know if there'll be charging points on the coach?
Also I have a a few mp4's (Modern Family, Family guy, The Hangover, How not to live your life) if people want them via dropbox? |

So Hemel pick up time has gone from 15:45 to 21:00. Bloody hell. That sucks for the idea of getting out for a ride on Saturday
I assume anyone who booked for the Air & Style will be refunded also because they won't be there in time. |
