WHO ELSE IS GOING TO EURO?

WHO ELSE IS GOING TO EURO?

Who else is going to Euro. I ask because I have made no plans for accom or games whatsoever - and if someone can hook me up with anything then I will let you run the yellow fever website

I take it Boysie and BigDunc are both planning Euro football fests? 

We (being the backbencher)are going to try and be open for as many of the games as possible, but its hard to predict what games are going to get the crowds without England in the competition. We thought if people want to organise groups for certain games, then we can roster the staff and can guarantee we will be open. The whole comp schedule is out on the www.uefa.com website.

The cuz has been working on me to go over for a while now, but having just returned from overseas I'm not sure if it'd be the wisest move. Although I'll probably be sorely tempted to go if we make the semis.

As far as accomm goes, may I recommend staying in Zagreb - it'll be cheaper and probably easier to find places, and it's about 3 hours drive away from Vienna and only 45 mins from Klagenfurt where Croatia will play two of their games (against Germany and Poland). And if you can arrange a bar-tab for us at the clubrooms, I'll give you my cuz's number and tell him to look after you.

I see you're going to Pag - red wine, great cheese, sun and hot women.
Nice.
And I'll be stuck here having to get up at 4am in freezing cold to watch the games...

I'm considering going over to see if I can get tickets to a Germany game. Most likley will stay here in the UK though.

it'll be what you make of it...

Maybe I should watch some football before heading to Croatia cos sounds like I won't want to be leaving in a hurry.  El grapadura what's the best way to get from Pag to Vienna, would it take that long to drive?

Take it you'll be taking a ferry from Pag to Zadar?

Shouldn't be more than 7 hours drive, less if you drive like me.



If you don't have a car, you could probably catch a bus from Zadar to Zagreb, and then a train or a bus from Zagreb to Vienna, but that'll obviously take longer.

cheers for the info.   Feverish get that car. 

Any sayings worth knowing to impress the local lasses.

I'm sure your dashing good looks will be more than enough...
Here are some phrases that may be useful though:

Dobar dan/vece - Good afternoon/evening
Hvala - Thank you
Koliko - How much
Kako si - How are you (use this only with people who are not much older than you, otherwise you might inadvertantly offend...)
Lijepa si - You're beautiful
Zelis li plesati (sa mnom) - do you want to dance (with me)
Zelis li nesto popiti - would you like a drink


This is all I can think of right now, I can PM you some risque ones if you're feeling brave....

sounds a bit better than sun, red women, hot cheese and great wine

In refined, posh accent, "Tko si ti/ste vi", the YF equivalent would be "Ko si".

Feverish needs to know how to say the following:

Me too!... gutted can't be there. I just downloaded Satellite TV to my computer through a program on the net (www.watcheuro2008online.com) so I can at least watch it without having to get outta bed!

Going to be so close to the action, but won't make it to any games unfortunately. Still, Europe will be humming.

anyone hear from Feverish yet? did he get there in one piece?

yep  see my blog

the guy up front for olympic is going there

He will get more sleep watching Greece play than on the flights UberGunner2008-06-11 18:02:56
