Hi!

Well, me neither, but old habits die hard, somehow. Btw I should
mention, we are not all from BEST here, even though there's a cunning
majority :) Though I should think that everyone has heard from BEST
from Rudi!

Thanks ;)

Cool!

Ok let us take this into account for the planning, thanks for the warning.

Ok, well, let's see. I mean, the idea is to have fun (and, well, enter
a bloody strip club while girlfriends, wifes and wifes-to-be are not
watching). I.e. we shouldn't stay if it's not fun.

Wow, that would be a nice thing... I just wonder then, how can we
combine this effectively with kidnapping Rudi from home? I.e. if we
first go to town, meet with the singers, and then blindfold Rudi, how
would that work in practice?

Cool. Need to make the count of answers, but I remember many people
said they had one.

Ok. What I would suggest is: let's all try to wear blue / black polo,
and then everyone can suit up or jean up according to what they
prefer. That way we still have a common element, but don't look all
the same, which is I think what Vanja meant with not looking like
typical englishmen invading Bratislava for the price difference.

Ok :) Still wondering if growth will be fast enough until the WE.

Cool!

Yes. Let's try not to overdo shots or stuff, but keep it going, gently :)
