Hello fellow Travellers heading to Borneo 19th May, just three more weeks now till we head out for Jungle life in beautiful Borneo, its gonna be hot and humid I guess but between us we'll all look out for each other or just trundle along in our own time spotting exotic wildlife and plants, for me night time will be a lonely time if its hot and sticky hoping that no horrible creepy crawlies appear on my wall as they did in the amazon ho ho never been so scared and on ringing the bell for help of which didn't come I had to deal with the little monster alone, not sure about little though it was huge
ok my little story out the way, my plans for anybody staying at the Premier Inn on Bath Road LHR, myself and Diane are arriving from Coventry via National Express and I estimate being at the PI by 3.30 on the Wednesday and as MikeW is staying at the park we are up for a meal and drinkies at the Three Magpies and so perhaps meet in the PI bar or lounge area between 5.30/6.00 to walk to the 3 magpies or perhaps get a taxi its about a mile which is 20 mins walk, we can see what the weather is doing, maybe get back to PI to catch Bob and Hils before they retire for the night, if not then at breakfast if we can look at a time should we miss in the evening, perhaps 7am, what are others thoughts on this? the flight being 11.25 is it so need to be over to check in 3 hrs before and make use of the executive lounge for the odd bevvie and to make off with a few packets of peanuts for the monkeys lol :thumbup: only kidding :)
abbadave whom i am sure is just as excited as the rest of us borneo-ettes :cool:
see you all very soon now
Hello Dave,
I am not sure yet when I shall arrive at the Premier Inn. If in time, I'll probably join you for the Three Magpies; if not, I'll look out for Bob &Co in the restaurant.
Presumably, with a group booking, we can only request our preferred seating position when we check in so I'll probably aim to get to T2 before check-in opens - or can we do this the night before and then use the bag drop on the day? I have not flown with Singapore Airlines before, so I am not sure of their procedure.
As our resident creepy-crawlie expert, you will obviously be a key member of our expeditionary force: I have made a note to persuade anything small, fanged, furry or fast to move straight to you while we are in Borneo :-)
See you somewhere in the LHR area
Jim
ho ho ho Jim that was funny afraid it looks like we'll be on a group booking for our flight but hopefully if we get to T2 early enough we may be able to request our seats, we may well join you on the early bus to T2
and as for creepie crawlies i must get a picture of that beastly thing i found on my wall in the amazon onto my phone, all the best hopefully see you around PI Dave
