Landing in Gatwick on the 12th.
:? What? Just to come to MPP or to tie in with another purpose? The MPP is good but I'm not sure it's worth a 20,000 miles round trip!!! :shock:
...don't listen to him- MPP's are awesome events for puzzlers - and there's probably going to be fish and chips for lunch this time! ;)

Why are you so shocked ...
We went to Paris 2 years ago for only 10 days.
Stayed in a private apartment that was an authors own home in the Bastille area right on the river ...
Bloody amazing.

Anyway.
Was our 25 wedding anniversary and we wanted to have dinner at the Eiffel tower.
Not that good actually ... we should have booked in at the restaurant at the top can't remember the name.
We had our dinner on bench seats with other tourists ... but still, we got there !

Paris was gob-smackingly amazing ... loved the place .... you buggers have all the history .....

Never been anywhere else in Europe .. so why not ....
Besides .... we can all get to know each other !

You gonna invite the loud obnoxious Aussie or what ?

Tis an open party, so no invitation necessary! Just introduce yourself once you arrive.

How much of your luggage allowance do you think Goliath would take up? :lol:

My wife is starting to get jealous I think....
I take him from my computer desk to the bed side table every night .... and look at him through the lava lamps light till I go to sleep.

I still carry the blue revo around in my front jeans pocket ....
Gets a few looks from the girls at the shopping centre :)

Mods:
I am hijacking the thread again... please delete where necessary.


Just kidding about attending I was just trying for a bite.
Got ONE !

Would love too .. but it is a tad far for a puzzlers anonymous meeting.
Even for me.

Have fun .. take photos .. will be looking on the blogs.

Back to topic.
As usual, I am offering free shipping to the MPP venue on any puzzles bought from pienterepuzzels.nl
I intend to pick up some puzzles on Wednesday or Thursday just before the MPP, just let me know what you want to buy, or buy your puzzles yourself and tell them I will pick up your order.

Note: the new "3 times more" puzzle by Constantin is now available.
The picture is a bit misleading, all 3 squares are actually cut in exactly the same way/size.
I played with it for 10 minutes last week, did not solve it yet.
