FOSDEM 2005

[http://www.fosdem.org/2005/ FOSDEM 2005] is happening on 26/27th February in Brussels. A bunch of ["DebianUK"] people are likely to be going, leaving at some point on Friday 25th, consuming a huge amount of beer, and returning either Sunday evening or Monday morning.

Transport

Eurostar seems to be the preferred choice. the £59.00 return option is available under multiple guises (see below); however there's a limited (and shared) quota on each departure at that price; After that it's £69.00, £79.00 ...

Yoof-26 fare for people still with hair
Leisure-Saver, need to stay one Saturday night away, or two nights during the week (non-changeable etc)
Leisure-Saver, but booked 21days in advance (also non-changeable etc)
OAP, fare for people without hair, anyone feel like trying this on?

The 10:43 on Friday seems to be £29.50, but returns on Sunday night at 17:56 or 20:25 are £49.50. I can't see anything later. - JD

The 10:42 on Friday seems to have gone up to £39.50 now, so you may as well leave at 14:42. - Robot101

nat: I'm probably flying from Bristol on Friday at about 9ish like the last 2 years.

Sledge: I'm considering driving from Cambridge; it's a relatively short and easy trip, and with 4 in the car not too expensive either (comparable to the train, at worst). It also lets me take kit along too if that's useful. If you'd be interested add your name here:

Sledge

Accomodation

Any ideas?

JD: Youth hostels about 15EUR a night. Conference hotel has been around 50GBP a night.

Beer

Place to meet on Friday?

Paul Sladen: There's a semi-unorganised drink-fest IIRC. Not to be missed.

JD: usually drinks on the top floor of the Le Roi d'Espagne on the Grand Place. Can't miss it; it's the one with the stuffed horse. Probably go for food before.
