Was just wondering if this trip is still going ahead? Plus what countries it will include and what parks. As well as whether it would be a one or two week thing. Plus the possible dates of the trip. As booking holidays deadline is approaching fast at work and i`m going to go for this trip.

Hoping it would do Europa and Phantasialand personality. Plus Park Astrix is a wanted park for me.

If Nev or anybody could leek a bit of news?

Well - nothing from those "in the know" yet then Wink

Well - here are my assumptions, and the facts behind them.

Preview trips for 2008/09 on the club website appear to be in chronolgical order, with the European Trip lying between Koaster Krazy and mega GLOW mania. Therefore, this trip is likely to take place in July.

I also suspect this trip will be a one week duration - even Nev must have restrictions on how much holiday he can have Exclamation

I wait to be proven wrong. And sorry Steve, I know this does not really help with you booking time off work.

It would be good to have a Europe trip because I haven't been on a coaster outside the UK yet.

My first post as a full RCCGB member!

I too would love to see a European trip of some kind, especially as the USA one is full.

There's still the Bash, Mega Mania and Loopathon to look forward to.

But hey, the person responsible for opening my eyes to the club's existence gets my wholehearted thanks - you know who you are Smile

The Rattler is a waste of wood, only a crazy welshman (Ryan)would think differently.

I'm not sure how often members take a look at the RCCGB FB group rather than come directly to this forum, so I thought I would flag Alan Chilvers proposed Scandinavia 2008 trip. This trip is tucked away on the group page so many may not be aware of it.

Now that does sound interesting. Has there been any estimate of cost?

Your best bet is to contact Alan Chilvers about the trip. Send him a message through Facebook.

The specifics of Alan's trip seemed set to change dependant on interest.

As this isn't an official RCCGB trip please don't discuss it in this section of the message board. Feel free to discuss it over in the Facebook group.
Cheers.
