I strongly suggest you do it now. One flight with Ryan Rai has already sold out.

I wouldn`t mind a piece of that, but what about fight tickets? Should we try and get a box rec section, don`t fancy being sat on my own.

Friday to Sunday for me. big lash on Friday in the Dorf, train? to the venue on Saturday arvo, cheeky few before the fight and after?

Fly back from Dorf Sunday evevning.

Flying in from Norway is a hassle though, but I`m up for this one. Would be good to meet up with some of you guys.

Booked, have been able to change my already booked trip to Berlin to Dorf without too much difficulty with Ryanair which I found very surprising

I saw your Facebook message, The Law's PM and no doubt a text will flutter in from Emerson. Is this some kind of attempt to assassinate me on foreign soil? I have seen the film Bully, I know your game, "Eddie".
No assasination attempt, but I do need someone to help me sample the local extreme spinach :DD

Just booked flight. Arrive Thursday in Dusseldorf and fly back Sunday evening. That makes Thursday and Friday night lash time.

Booked a hotel called Madison in Dorf for Thursday and Friday, but not sure where to book for the Saturday night. Any tips would be handy. Want to try and get close to the Stadium.
