I'm getting lost with all the talk in shoutbox so decided to make a thread about it to discuss topic easier!
Project MUNICH2014 - Mia san Giga!
OK, who is actually thinking of going?
Do you want to make a weekend of it, or are you thinking of an extra long road trip for a day?
Hotel/Motel or what, or not?

tarmacjohn: Plus hotels, plus food.
tarmacjohn: Working out the mpg of my car and based on 1800 miles I make it closer to £50 each
tarmacjohn: Plus ferries, plus any toll roads
walktall: my route included ferry plus cheapest toll route across Europe (used: www.viamichelin.com/)
walktall: OK, what about by train: London to Munich via Brussels for €118 return (special limited tickets)?
walktall: What about bus at £101.50 return from Oxford via London to Munich (www.europebus.co.uk/germany/)?
sparklefingers: if you're on FB theres a group chatting about a bus trip.

walktall: Thanks TJ - price still seems open to change upwards from £60 but the great advantage is them talking about organising stops in different countries.

I'd like to go, but money is making me look for cheaper alternatives. I know there are people looking at organising a bus, but that's some distance to get to just for that.
Flights are looking expensive, and I was wondering if actually a minibus hire would work out better for cost?
I know for a fact my missus isn't free but I'm sure there are one or two people here who are looking at going, maybe try and find a way to battle the costs down, but how to do it as a group?
