The 26th. November? Isn't that a Wednesday?

Yeah, briefly :) But 250 € for two flights plus cab is a tad expensive, and "in the middle of the week" is out of the question right away :)

 

Edit: Oh. Its only 91€ both ways - unless you bring a suitcase, which adds 50€ .. 100 € :o But it would start Tuesday evening and go back on Thursday morning. That means still 1 1/2 day holiday from work.

What about eurotunnel..?

 

Deutsche Bahn is unable to tell me what the price will be (Einmal mit Profis arbeiten...). I guess it will be a lot more expensive, using theThalis. But I have no idea, actually.

 

Edit. Thalys.com gives me a quote of about 360€ from Cologne <=> London. Plus the local railfare that would be near 400€

LOL, blimey they are on another bloody planet with those prices.

 

Did a quick google search and found Ryan Air €98 return, plus the train from the Airport at €30 you could sleep over in my spare room etc. Thats a good deal cheaper and quicker than going via Brussels.

Looking at booking using the Dutch National Railways, you shouldn't be paying more than 250 euros, and that's from Nijmegen all the way to London. 2nd class though, and you will be using regional trains to get to Calais or Cologne or wherever you should be going.

You can call me Phi, Numbers, Digits, Ratio, 16, 1618, or whatever really, as long as it's not Phil.

Tha train from the Airport is €30 now? Wow, it used to be 5 pound or so - well, ok, that was before the war :D

 

Yeah, Ryan Air plus train on your side plus train on my side amounts to about 150 € 200 € back-and-forth all in all. Not bad, but still quit heavy for a beer :ph34r: In that case I'd rather have a long weekend to see a bit more of London.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
