2015 ring trip leaving on 22/05/15 returning 26/05/15

[BIG"E"]

This years trip will be different !!

Through no fault of mine we will not be going back to the hotel we have used for the last 6 years,

I am working quite hard (with Jacqueline s help) to find an alternative hotel which is not easy considering we are going at a popular time.

Please can you give me some idea of the number of people that would like to be part of the 7th SES trip ASAP

With regards to which hotel we will be staying in,

I will be able to confirm this next week (hopefully)

1: BIG"E" + 1
2: SilverSurfer +1
3: Granby
4: Pieman + 1

INFORMATION REGARDING FINAL CONFIRMATION OF NUMBERS & CANCELLATIONS :

10th April : Cut off Date for Changes/Cancellations. No charge will be applied for cancellations. Additional rooms 'May' be available at request.

10th April - 1st May : Cancellations will be subject to 50% charge for the room.

1st May : Cancellations after 1st May will be required to pay the full room rate.

1: BIG"E" + 1
2: SilverSurfer +1

4: Pieman + 1
5. Wagon_Si + 1

[Scooby_Greg]

I'll also drop into some hotels next week and ask on availability based upon the numbers interested. Maybe it's fate - there are other very good hotels in the area.

But you have a pre existing holiday booked dont you?

I think at this stage it would be better to put you on the list, you could always cancel at a later date.?

I take it you'll have a +1 ?

[Red Baron]

1: BIG"E" + 1
2: SilverSurfer +1
3: Granby
4: Pieman + 1
5. Wagon_Si + 1*
6. Bolesroor + 1
7. Red Baron +1

I'll go on the provisional list then, sure I could drag someone along, probably won't be Toby as he'll hopefully be flat out with work.

Getting some practice in?

[Hongkongfooi]

I'm meant to be on a course leading up to those dates.

[Scott.T]

As Ian mentioned above this years trip will be a little different.
This year we won't be staying with Jackie, but with Eddy at Hotel-an-der-Nordschleife :

http://www.hotel-an-der-nordschleife.de/

Some of us stayed here back in 2013, due to us overflowing the capacity at Jackies.
I think all those that stayed enjoyed the facilities, bar and restaurant and location.

The bonus with this Hotel :

1. Location (probably the best located hotel in the area)
2. Onsite Bar & Restaurant (that does 'Steak On-The-Stone')
3. Lidl's 75 meters away, to stock your Fridge with Germans best Bitburger
4. Balcony Views of Track.
5. Nearby Cafés
6. Nearby good quality Pizza Restaurant

For those not sure where this hotel is.....here's a little clue :



We have provisionally booked for 19 persons (based on the current list). This is split as follows :

5x Double/Twin Rooms : 84 Euro per night, inc Breakfast
1x Single : 65 Euro per night, inc Breakfast
1x Apartment (sleeps 4) : 140 Euro per night, inc Breakfast
1x Apartment (sleeps 4) : 180 Euro per night, inc Breakfast

Although the above room rates vary, to make things easier we shall pay as a group. This total will then be divided amongst the total persons that attend.
At this moment this works out at approx. 170 Euro's per person (for 4 nights)

In order to firm this booking up with Eddy, I need to ask you all for a Deposit to secure your rooms.
I therefore need to ask for £50 from each pair, in order to cover the 540 Euro Deposit.
Please send via paypal to payments@southeastscoobies.co.uk and if possible send as personal payment/gift to avoid SES incurring charges.

I will ask for the final payment nearer the time.
SES will then arrange the payment for the accommodation, all you need to cover whilst there is food and drinks.

Attendee's
1: BIG"E" + 1 : Double Room
2: SilverSurfer +1 : Apartment : Deposit Paid
3: Granby
4: Pieman + 1
5. Wagon_Si + 1 : Double Room
6. Bolesroor + 1 : Double Room
7. Red Baron + 1
8. Scotty + 1
9. Steve & Claire : Double Room
10. NL03Scooby + 1

If we run out of Double rooms, then let me know and I'll have a word with Eddy.

[Red Baron]

As I said earlier, I can't commit at this time so if you need numbers now I'm going to have to say no I'm afraid. Sorry chaps, if we had another couple of months to confirm I'd know for definite but not at the moment. Shame as Eddies is a great spot, what better alarm call than the track opening and the balcony is a great spot to watch the world go by.

You can always commit now. I am sure we can claw your deposit back nearer the time if give enough notice. You have until early April to change your mind.

This is the Hotel Policy, which seems fair enough :

Important notice
Due to the busy nature of the hotel during the season the policy of the hotel is to make a full charge for the booking in the event of a cancellation made within 3 weeks of start of your stay.
A 50% charge will be made for bookings cancelled within 3 to 6 weeks prior to commencement of your stay. A cancellation 6 weeks before your stay is free of costs.

It's a fantastic location with only a short walk to the circuit. I loved it the last time we stayed there hearing the first car go round at 8 whilst laying in bed and nipping up to the track to watch.
There's also a number of very cheap restaurants nearby - mainly Italian - but very good value. Great for the non-drivers as they don't need to rely on being driven somewhere.
I'm there a few times in May and hopefully look forward to seeing you there! If anyone is thinking of renting a car for the ring please let me know and I'll see if I can sort something out.

Is your Porsche available then

Ha ha. Unfortunately not - only TF sessions on weekday evenings or closed trackdays otherwise I'll be hiring. Trackday organised for August which will be fun. Flat out along Döttinger Höhe is always fun-although last time in a swift the vmax wasnt that quick!

[Hongkongfooi]

Excellent news on Eddies. Surprised it wasnt booked up as its an awesome location for a group. I agree with all Greg has said about it. Its like having the best seat in the house. Fantastic to just sit by the road and watch the fantastic cars drive by on their way to the high octane petrol station or on track.

[sparkycab]

i will mention this to ron as i doubt he will see it after whats just happened though at the moment it will not be something that he's thinking about or bothered with.

i hope to still be able to go with him but things are going to take a while to sort out and i know he won't leave the family unless he feels it is ok for him to do so.

i will try to update if i can but don't get on much myself.

Deposit paid, thanks for putting down double room.

If you could keep him informed it would be good.
Have a good Christmas...

Cool the important thing is that you can make it,

can your good lady not come with you ?

[BIG"E"]

Anyone else interested?

Because we have not stayed at http://www.hotel-an-der-nordschleife.de/ before we need to get the deposits paid ASAP.
