do you have to pack them in the airing cupboard in a box full of newspaper like the bleu peter tortoise?

[Bonjoy]

Do airing cupboards really exist? I've never had a house with one. What are they for airing and how does the air get in?

[dave]

my parents crib has what they call an airing cupboard. its just a cupboard with the hot water tank in generally, full of towels. i think a genuine airing cupboard would be a bit of an oxymoron, unless it was some kind of mini windtunnel type thing.

[Scouse D]

we used our airing cupboard for storing these


The cupboard was large as being full of air they are quite bulky.

[Bonjoy]

A small widtunnel room would be great for my homemade salami and air dried ham plans.

I think it's there for you to imprison the midly successful french electro band Air once you've kidnapped them Avid Merrion style.

I went to font at the weekend. If you are planning a trip, stop crimping those small wooden holds and practice standing on polished bits of glass and exercise your cunning.

If you don't you will be beaten.

[a dense loner]

i see you went to cuvier dobbin

[Jim]

do you guys recon it'll be worth booking a formula 1 in advance or just turn up?

[dave]

just turn up.

if you guys are cooking your own food, don't leave a stove in the room during the day or the clearers will confiscate it.

Just been checking out www.whichbudget.com to try and find cheap flights to Paris and am mildly bamboozled by the fact there are 3 airports.  Does anybody know which one is the nearest/best for getting to Font?  ie/ Beauvais, Charles de Gaulle or Orly? Or is it much of a muchness? Cheers peeps

[dave]

Bo-vais is way way to the north, i tink closest is oly, then CDG.

[rowena]

Ah merci muchos.  Do you need to have a car to get around or can you get public transport/hitch/walk etc once you get there?  I know it's a pretty vast area just not sure how vast!!  It'd probably just be easier just hiring a car at the airport I guess ?

[dave]

would be best with a car i think. gives you more choice of areas.

[LJ]

do you reckon we will be able just to turn up at formula 1 over the xmas, new year period? going out on the 27th, back on the 4th

[dave]

i recon - we used to just turn up at easter and shit with no problems.

but you can book on their website for fuck all trouble, so if you're worried then do that.

[Jim]

Orly is the closet airport but you can't really fly direct to it from the Uk. Most flight go to CdG

[rowena]

As far as I know only www.flyglobespan fly to Orly and that's from Glasgow for at least £130 !

i apologise for jim he's never been on a big job. i do not wish to be associated with that question n shall be lambasting jim tomorrow on the way to FONT for having the audacity to lump me in with people not knowing about formula 1's in font. the mind boggles, now where's my favourite smiley

ps. fly to cdg n hire a car there. it's the winner's choice

[a dense loner]

LJ i am goin on the 27th til the 4th as well. small world, big numbers

Apparently, when Doncaster International airport opens (its going to happen in the next year or two) one of the new budget airline routes to be offered will be Doncaster - Paris Orly.

This means I can leave work at four o'clock on a friday and potentially be chilling in the F1 with a bottle of vin rouge in time for supper! Bring it on!

I'm not sure there will be such a large number of Parisiens who will be feeling as excited about a trip to Doncaster though.......!!!!!!

[Fiend]

Well, equally, the Parisiens will be able to leave work and pretty soon be washing down lard-drenched fish'n'chips with a few nasty tinnies in a freezing cold tent/bunkhouse before joining the queues for the delights of the Plantation or more likely The Edge the next day....

[dave]

you can see the attraction for the frenchies - they can knock off at the garlic factory at their usual time of about half-two (i.e. the half-hour afternoon after the 3 hour lunchbreak) and be knocking off 6a eliminates at roche abbey by the time the gate gets locked.

looking for some info about Recloses.  Has anyone been there?  Have they looked at the following problems?  http://bleau.info/recloses/7a++.html  

if you are too lazy to click the link then the problems in question are Opium, Narcotic, and Hueco Tanks.  I want to know if these problems are worth a visit?  Are they good problems?  They look pretty amazing but are they?  Has anyone done them?  and where is recloses?  Is it in 7+8?

thanks

[a dense loner]

r u on drugs? you left hueco after 3 days cos you thought it was shite, now you're askin about big numbers in the hueco vein. look at that vincent pochon, there's a reason he's done them probs, cos he wrestles with alligators when he's not busy trainin. apart from that i've not been. however, went to gorges de houx the other day, some quality probs there, with the best 7c i've seen in a long time. only the wall boy need apply. also went to rocher greau in nemours city park, best individual lines i've seen in, no ever. was wet tho so din't pull on, just salivated.
recloses is in 7+8, page 101. there is only that roof there, n it's in the middle of nowhere. the choice is yours, choose wisely
