If travel permitted, I'd probably be only able to fly out Friday then fly back Sunday evening.

Stehan and me already reserved our rooms now. We opted this for the Ibis ( https://www.booking.com/hotel/es/ibis-styles-barcelona-centre.de.html ). We will stay from Thursday 21st to Monday 25th.


Excellent location. You can always get the underground, but you have almost everything in a 30mins walk range ;)

Was looking at this one:

Metro station:

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Penitents/@41.4177329,2.13...

I would prefer this as I mentioned on the Facebook page, because we would have a place to meet up and watch the F1 on the Sunday while having some BBQ or just drinks and enjoy the sun :D

I'd likely be doing the same on Sunday (most people do anyway) - I am hoping to fly out Thursday evening though, as I'll have the Friday off work.

EDIT - Shotgun Bedroom 4 if that's the villa you choose Jun :P

Same here. I would want to fly Thursday evening (may take that day and Friday off). Then fly back Monday morning because the Airbnb will not allow late night checkouts lol :D

If you have the double, I will take the singular bed in Bedroom 5 lol :D

Would you be booking the villa from Thursday night onwards @Jun Ho (P18) ?

Might get on a late flight from Manchester (like 19:40 and arrive at 23:05), or go earlier and just be a bit cheeky about working on my mobile if I can...

EDIT - I definitely wouldn't be staying on Sunday night FYI...

Thursday night to Monday morning. I will fly at around 11am/12pm depending on what flights are available :D

I will be trying to get an earlier flight from Luton and check in earlier so that everyone can just arrive and settle in :D

Ok cool - is it an issue if I turn up at e.g. 1am Friday morning to the villa?

Some reason that shorturl link isn't loading up the Villa - can you redo the link?

It’s too early for me to commit to definitely coming and what days I’m free as I’ll have to wait for my uni timetable and placement dates for the new academic year. But once I’ll know I’ll get my arse in gear.

I'd absolutely love to commit but we still have no idea what is happening with travel, vaccine passports and all that jazz. I might not be able to get vaccinated because of a medical condition, so i will have to see where that leaves me in terms of travelling.

I do however have that weekend free and am keeping it free until they announce what is happening.

Looks like it would be a last minute thing for me.

Flights booked - arriving on Thursday 21st very late (23:05) and leaving on Sunday evening.

Decision on accommodation to come once I know more about Jun's villa option... :)

If we can get 8 people, it will be £173 for 4 nights. There are 6 bedrooms, so the minimum we need would be 6 people :D

The villa does sound enticing :).

Would need to get a room for the one final night in a hotel, but I would be game.

I like the sound of the villa too. If you manage to get your 6 minimum and can add one in later (I'll pay of course) then I'd be in.

Woo. :)

We potentially have:

Me, James (potential), JB (potential), Brad Park (and his brother), Harri, Keri (potential). Maybe if Wayne comes over, he can also join in.

Yup. I was thinking they wouldn't mind staying in the same room :D

Hah, got laid off from work today, party time (hated the job for the past 6 months and got a decent severance package).

The only downside is I can't be sure what my new job will think of my vacation in October.

Might have to downgrade me to "propably" in the villa list. It should be fine, but if I get an overly unreasonable boss... well, might be a problem.

A bit bittersweet there Harri :P

Hope your boss is as kind as me :)

Great! I´ll be in Mataró, at the home of some relatives, if I can finally go.

Jun and I were talking and there will definitely be a villa booked for some of us; number of people interested will dictate how large a villa of course! :)
