Right then all of you …
Everyone is booked for 3 nights. Fri 19th, Sat 20th and Sun 21st in Sunnyvista Towers – and so unless advised otherwise I’m assuming you arrive on Fri 19th in the morning – available to play Fri eve (if required), Sat and/or Sunday anytime. Depart on Monday.
If you want to stay for additional nights, either at the beginning or the end…now’s the time to let me know and I will let the hotel know. Or if you haven’t told me by Weds this week – I’ll leave it to you to contact them later …
Col
Duncan – have noted you arrive on Thursday 18th for 4 nights.

Following recent success at the Clacton bye-election, Nigel Garage hopes to bring more prestige to his party by announcing his candidacy to stand for the vacant position as ‘Aardvark President’. Intending to launch his manifesto at the next Timperley Sports Club Car Boot sale, sources say that compulsory lederhosen for all non playing tourists is likely to be an eyecatching pledge. It seems certain to go down well with Guernsey constituents, ‘I’ve been looking for a smartly dressed man in leather shorts for some time’ said ex-SNP catwalk model and philatelist, Hilary Stokes. Garage is planning a series of high profile public appearances to woo voters over the next few months starting with next months ‘Barbara Cartland Masquerade Ball’ thrown by Pat Carragher for retired Irish-persons. If you want to be in the audience to hear Nigel’s final televised husting in Guernsey on 19-22 June 2015 then you need to act now…..! The ‘Private Walker’ of the Aardvark army, Iain (‘ooo me kidneys’!) Stokes has secured both opposition (Jersey and Guernsey over 50s) and accommodation for our latest joust with old age upon those dates next year. We are looking at 2 matches on either Fri eve, sat or Sun with other entertainment along the way … As with Cork, Brugge and Amsterdam, feel free to extend your stay before or after the weekend itself. However to ensure we get both space and a good rate Iain has secured what looks like a superb deal, given its high season at the following abode with whom he has influence with the eastern European chalet maids…we shall be staying at St Pierre Park Hotel & Golf Resort, near St Peter Port, Guernsey. www.stpierrepark.co.uk; We have been offered Classic rooms at £84.00 single occupancy B&B / £108.00 double or twin occupancy per room per night. Rates include full cooked buffet breakfast and use of Le Mirage Health Suite. Whilst this offer is currently directed at the Fri, Sat and Sun nights … i’m sure if you wanted to extend you stay it can be arranged. Travel. Plenty of flights from Manchester, B/him, East Mids & Bristol … BUT BUT BUT … whilst you can get them now…for about £100 (had a look myself this morning), flight prices will nudge steadily up to £180/£200. Iain & Hil suggest we buy now !!!! Alternatively foot passenger from Southampton ferry for about £30/£40 … but timings limited. Deposit. To secure the Hotel we need to send them a deposit of £75 per person by 13th Dec … so could you transfer this sum into the Aardvark account (NOTE Nicks new account details !!) by that date and also … drop Nick a quick email saying its done. Nationwide Building Society Sort Code : 07-02-46 Account no : 48866428 Name: N I BURNETT (Avks) Thinks that’s all … i guess it will help everything go swimmingly if you can end Nick £75 and book your flight now, then you can sit back and let the weeks roll by … Col 07990 971190 PS – responses from the previous email were … Yep – we can’t wait … Niall, Kato & Leisa, Wilks, Tolley & Hurdy, Mags & Jo, Mel, Nick & Brenda, Gary Stoneley, Jeremy English, Col & Appers, Stokesy & Hil, Dick & Laura, Tim Roberts, Rich Knill, Dave Roper, Dunc Brown, Mel Cuthbert, Luth, Fozzie, John Donnolly, Ciara, (28) Possibly not, still checking … Cuey & Rob Def no’s … Waggy/Sal, Harry & Chris Mayou

At a top level summit meeting in Birmingham, several members of the influential left of centre midfield think tank that is the Aardvarks decided that the timing was right to do our bit to boost the flagging Eurozone Economy by organising a final tour to Guernsey in June 2015.
Same basic plan as Bruges and Cork … 3 nights with 2 games over the weekend against the over 50 teams from Guerner-land and the Jersey boys.
We are looking at the weekend of 19-22 June 2015 and accommodation is currently being sourced by one of the island’s most prominent and cheapest business-travel partnerships.
I guess the simple question at this stage is … are you in?
If so, we should have an idea of the accommodation cost in about a week … no doubt we’ll need a deposit to secure – it is high season and as for Cork, once the accommodation is booked, organise your own travel … Flights from Birmingham, East Midlands, Manchester and Bristol. Boat from somewhere at the bottom of England where the land runs out. Choice of options Thu or Fri to Sun or Mon … or bolt on a few days to pleasure yourself at the Underground War Hospital or Tomato Museum.
So some idea of numbers please?
wow! Estoy realmente expresarme !!
