I will probably set the cut-off for something like 12th May in order to give me time to get it wired out to Eddy. Whilst there you only then need to pay for Beer (if not using Lidl's) and evening meals. I expect this year we will only be eating 'on-site' once as we have Pisten Clause booked for 1 night and there's a few other eating houses in the area. |

Tesco was easiest for me, and similar price to Post Office.
|

|

I've always used iceplc.com (International Currency Exchange) as I found they offer the best rates. Money is posted to you via insured delivery.
Just don't leave it to the last minute as if it does go missing, you need to wait two weeks before they re-send it (to allow for courier screw-ups). Never had a problem though. |

If you're ever seen in London there's loads of places that have much better rates than on the High Street or in banks. I managed to get 1.35 today, which is the highest I've ever seen
It's difficult to know if it's going to get any better though! |
#110
|
||||
|
||||
I personally us a post office credit card as no charges and same rate as changing cash

Now at 1.3604 euros to the £ on iceplc.com, that's a fair change in only a few weeks. Getting cheaper and cheaper for us!

Well look what arrived today, I ordered these only 3 days ago..
I ordered these only 3 days ago.. With a certain amount of uncertainty with regards to lap costs I decided to get things sorted. 2 x 4 lap tickets arrived today 205 euros (including postage) for 8 laps...

I was thinking of doing the same Ian, I'm not sure what the new charging system is going to be in the future but I know the prices were frozen at last years rate until April...
I read that they don't have an expiry now, that definitely the case? If so, i'll probably get a 9 lap ticket which works out at 215 euro delivered. Whatever I don't use in May can carry over to next year I assume. |

That's interesting..... I was going on the statement from the Nurburgring website:

Quote:
It has been said that a new pricing structure may be introduced which in all probability will mean that it is cheaper to drive the ring midweek and more expensive during the weekend. Quote:
Although it works out cheaper to get the 9 laps you still have to consider the extra fuel and the scoob.

That does look clear - I was told differently when I spoke to them ordering some tickets. Doesn't seem very organised!

I only did 6 last year, but I was only thinking about getting a 9 lap ticket as its cheaper per lap, then using the remainder the year after. But it would be nice to know for sure if the cards are valid beyond 31/12/15. If not, I'll probably only buy a 4 lap and then buy a single or two if I do more once i'm there. |
#125

Or you could sell the extra laps to me?

Getting cheaper by the day
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-31811791 Could do mate, would be easier having them on two cards though rather have to keep swapping the card around in the car park. |

Just done a quick check £600 converts to 810 euros from the post office better order some soon .

I've never actually bothered about travel insurance?? Luggage can't get lost and health stuff is covered by EHIC card so not normally worried about it. I guess the most likely use is loss/theft of personal possessions? (camera/wallet etc?)
Dammit. Good thing I've got 90 quid of Tesco vouchers to use then I guess! |
#143
|

|

Steve - the key part is the repatriation in case you're too ill or injured to get home.
|
#144
|
||||
|
||||
As Greg said, if you haven't got travel insurance and you trip down the front steps at the hotel and break a leg you can't get home, EHIC will only cover some things, it won't pay for months in hospital and subsequent repatriation and that can run into tens of thousands, I would think twice about a day trip without it. I've got annual multi trip for the family through work now, only costs £5 a month for Europe.
|
#145
|
||||
|
||||
Cheers chaps, will look into it. Might even get it through my credit cards but will check.
Always had repatriation of the scoob covered, obviously only worry about the important things! |
#146
|
||||
|
||||
Mmmm another thing to sort out travel insurance .

The following list details the Final Attendee's and room arrangements for this years trip.
After confirming final numbers the 'Outstanding Balance' was received from the Hotel and the below identifies, for everyone, their personal outstanding balance. As mentioned previously we would like to pay this in advance, therefore upon arrival/departure all you have to worry about is paying for food and meals. I expect you will only be eating in the Hotel, of an evening, on 1 or 2 nights (max), so just settle your food/drink bills as you would any other restaurant on the night. 'Lidl' is just 100 yards away and does Beer for under 1 Euro (a bottle) or 5-6 Euro for a 5 litre keg. So many of you are unlikely to be racking up a bar bill in the Hotel. The total bill has been split evenly amongst all attendee's. If you can send payment to payments@southeastscoobies.co.uk via www.paypal.com ensuring the payment method selected does not incur costs to SES (if this is the case the payment will be rejected/returned). ATTENDEE's 22nd - 26th (4 Nights): Twin Rooms : BIG"E" + Alfa Male : Deposit paid, £200 Outstanding Balance To Pay NL03Scooby + 1 : Deposit Paid, £200 Outstanding Balance To Pay Single Rooms : Granby : Deposit Paid, £100 Outstanding Balance To Pay Double Rooms : Wagon_Si + 1 : Deposit Paid, £200 Outstanding Balance To Pay Scotty + 1 : Deposit Paid, £200 Outstanding Balance To Pay Steve & Claire : Deposit Paid, £200 Outstanding Balance To Pay ATTENDEE's 24th - 26th (2 Nights): Twin Rooms : Drakesnow + 1 : £125 Outstanding Balance To Pay Please let me know when you have made payment and I will update the above list with confirmation. |
