    Can't wait for this now!!!

    Any of the experienced RW attendees have any good tips for me and my noob buddies? :p

    i.e. Essential stuff to bring, best place to get the beers and food (NB!)

    Whats the story with Ryanair now, i booked a bag to be checked in ages ago, and had to pay for airport check in. But now they've gotten rid of airport check in and just have a bag drop desk, i assume i check in online now and just bring my bag along?

    Yeah just check in online and they have a baggage drop area now for the bag. You should really have been refunded the airport check-in charge..but i suppose this is Ryanair we're dealing with!

    A full day to drink in Brussels + a 10PM flight

    Dangerous :pac:

    Weather predictions just getting hotter and hotter, 31c for Thursday and 35c for Friday :pac:

    ****. High 20's would have been perfect. Mid 30's is too hot for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    whats the story with that Ryanair thing? i'm bringing a tent but i dont have it booked in was just gonna do it that day! They really are a vile shower of pr1cks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    yeah think i'll do that, i hate dealing with them in any way shap or form also them just changing flight times willy nilly is very annoying also. I need to take a chill pill, must not let this ruin my excitement, lol.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    Yeah getting home last year for me was sh1t, i'll be much better prepared this year though. Don't know, if this has been posted yet, a bit of good news on the drinks front.

    "By popular demand! The choice of drinks expands considerably during the festival this year. A wine and cava bar will be added to the chill out. Tasty cocktails will be prepared for you at the Minute Maid Cocktail bar. At the regular bars, also Jupiler, Hoegaarden Rosee, Coca Cola (classic, diet and zero), water and Red Bull will be available. As usual, specialised stands offer coffee, milk and fruit juice. Cin Cin! Schol! Proost! Cheers! Salud! Santé!"

    Is that Hoegaarden rossee another fruity beer, like that mankey cherry stuff?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 sinners19


    Hey that Cherry stuff is gorgeous! Haha Should be a new experience trying the new stuff...


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    Wasn't the biggest fan myself, i'm way too manly for all that cherry nonsense :pac:

    I hope that little gourmet food buffet place is there again this year, nice to get a couple of decent meals in there when the burgers and bratwursts begin to get too much!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    I saw Hoegaarden and got excited. Then saw Cherry :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    Yeah got a little excited bout that myself, ah well!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22


    Hoegaarden would have been so nice :(

    I'm not that bothered this year because i bought one of those big hydration packs! I'll end up at the bar though if we do get those high temps for cool beer!


  • Registered Users Posts: 959 ✭✭✭pablodunlop


    Just about to book train tickets, does it matter what names I put in for each passenger? I booked the tickets so I was going to put my name on all three.

    Nevermind! Answered on the RW forum :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    Is anyone else on the late Ryanair flight tomorrow? last year i got the bus from charleroi to brussels but i think Mr.S was saying you can get a train from Charleroi to brussels which works out cheaper?

    Another thing is, i might stop in Brussels for a pint or two tomorrow night, so around what time do the trains from Brussels to Leuven stop running at?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,781 ✭✭✭PetKing


    I think the last train to Leuven is around 10.30, maybe 11ish.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22


    I haven't packed yet and my flight is at 6:50am tomorrow! :eek:

    Everyone have a brilliant RW! :pac::D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Finishing off my packing now. Not going till Thursday morning though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,781 ✭✭✭PetKing


    I'll pack in the morning, 6.30pm flight from Shannon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22


    Hey hey!

    Had a great time, it was a really good festival this year! :D Yeah the heat was unreal - i got a bit of a tan though :pac:

    I'm in Berlin at the moment, roasting here too

    back in work, dealing with the sunburn :( highest I saw was 40, queuing for the campsite passes on the first day.

    savage weekend. 2manyDJs were the highlight I think

    Hands up who got sunburnt :D

    Jaysus that was some heat, highest i saw was 39c :eek:

    Not to sure i like the new mainstage crowd system for the pits, to many ques where last years you could just walk in.

    What was the system? Had they a managed section at the front or something??
