paris trip eurostar

[jessemorning]

this is one we need to sort out soon. if there are more than 10 people interested to travel by train we can get a group discount.

you'll also need to arrange transport to get to london. i usually book this through https://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/ as they dont charge £1.50 like thetrainline.com do.

if you book post your times (and coach number) below so others to synchronize

Hi my preference would be Eurostar, I guess I'll check back again soon and see how many others are interested and whether we can get a group discount...

Hi -- My pref is Eurostar, but I'll hold off booking if we can get a group discount...

I love train journeys. How early shall we start from Bristol? Lots of trains that weekend already have limited seats...I sent a basic group request email for the Sat morning to see how much it will be, waiting for a reply!

Thanks Melanie -- Sounds like we need to move fast to get a block booking. How exactly are we going to do this...? Have we got 10 people yet? I count around four - Rosa, David sax, Melanie, me, who else?

I asked for a train out on Sat am & a train back on Sun eve & the price came back as £80.00 return for a group of 10 - obvs it night be slightly different when we choose the times we really want - anyone want to book it?

[jessemorning]

i'll send another email with a deadline for the end of the weekend if they want to eurostar.
was the £80 return all the way to paris or just to london?

[Melanie - bari]

The £80.00 was a return Eurostar - going Sat morning at 8.00ish & returning Sun eve - doesn't include travel to London.

[jessemorning]

ok so it would mean a very early train or staying in london the night before

I'm up for this if there is not enough people in the cycling crew to make it viable.
