"amazing" is the only word i can think of that could describe what this weekend was like. just everything about it was spot on. the german people were so good to us and made us feel very welcome, the place we stayed was just perfect. i could spend hours just telling you all how good it was but all i can say is "put me down for next years meet cos i am definatly comming again"

Very impressive - looks like the UK will have to raise its bar ever so slightly to get ahead of our German friends
Looks like I may have to attend next year - depends on the rest of the family though as mine is still a young'ish one For the Brit's - just wondering, including fuel, what was the cost in the end (only roughly as I know this kind of info is personal - she who must, might find out....) Cheers

The hotel room with all u can eat breakfast was 50 Euros
Food was about 13 euros for lunch and 15 for dinner (I ate well )I used 4 tanks of LPG (70 Ltrs each @ 47Cents a Ltr for 2 and 59 Cents a Ltr for the other 2 (2 in Belgium and 2 in germany). I also put a 100 Ltrs of 98 Octane petrol in @ 1.23 Euros a Ltr approx but I could have used LPG if I had planned my refueling better. So by my reckoning the cost of a trip is approx £450. I spent a wee bit more because they had beer there. Very nice beer. Very nice indeed.  You could reduce the cost of fuel by driving at 65Mph all the way there and back! No? Why's that then?
