Hope they run a coach. We got one when we saw Randy Crawford a couple of years ago.

I have received an e.mail reply from Famagusta festival stating that if we can get 20 people they will :
" provide us a mini-bus from Kyrenia to Famagusta " .
Beyond that I have , at this moment in time, no other information.
If interested parties could send me a PM . In the meantime I am trying to find out any costs involved etc.
Watch this space.

Up to 9 possibly 11 at the moment.

I am afraid we only have 7 interested people at the moment and I am still waiting to hear back from Famagusta festival re cost.
If we can`t get to 20 it will be a pointless exercise.

Why don't you join forces with 'Metin' who is posting in the same vein in the main section-he seems to have 9 people and if you have 11,well that makes 20 and a full bus!
Good result for all I think?

Sorry Philoz. It was a case of duplicate posting, so the mods have deleted Metin`s thread and moved this to the main.
We now have 13 people interested but as yet have no reply from Festival magusa as to the cost.

Thanks for your interest. I am trying to get a reply from the Festival organisers. They only sent me one e.mail offering the mini bus but I will try to ring them.

Folks,
I have sent e.mail message, Twitter message to Famagusta and have now spoken to someone on the phone.
They say they will ring me back tomorrow , so if people can wait for their reply before making other arrangements.
We may not be successful but lets give them a chance.

I have just come off the phone with Famagusta Belediyesi and they said they are arranging coach and will ring me in an hour.
Now you all know as much as I do.
Don`t if we have to pay or how much yet....................
Hope that all parties who said they are interested .......still are..............................as what little hair i have is being pulled out in big klumps..........
Will report back soon.

I must say,I admire your tenacity in trying to get this trip sorted-you deserve a medal(or at least a stiff drink).
I really hope you all get to the ball,and have a great evening!
By the way, I was worried about your hair loss and think I have found something for you that may help-

What is frustrating is that when I phoned and the guy spoke reasonable English, he said he had to talk to someone else , which he did while I held the line. I thought , here we go , he is going to say that there is no bus.......but he said they were arranging the coach and someone would ring me. I didn`t get the chance to ask how much..but I don`t think he would have known.....he is just the spokesperson.
If those that said they were interested want to wait till tomorrow.....we haven`t bought our tickets yet.....
Hopefully they will ring. Can`t understand why they don`t respond to the e.mails .............they did the first one............

WE HAVE A COACH.........................
DETAILS BELOW.............................
PICK UP POINT Lemar Catalkoy
TIME OF PICK UP : 17.30 ( 5.30)
Total cost of coach TL600
If we can get 20 that will be TL30
At 17 that equals 35
The lady said they can take 21 people.
If people can e.mail their confirmation of attendance to

Ideally if people can arrange to get ticket money to me before Monday as I will have to fork out TL600 off my own bat.

We now have a price reduction.................
Total cost of coach is now TL 450
Pick up is at Lemar Karakum ................PROMPT AT 5.30 ...................OR .............VERY shortly after at LEMAR CATALKOY.
Again please confirm your attendance as we will have to pay the driver.
We now have a seating capacity of 22........so the more bums on seats the cheaper for everyone.

Right,here we go again...............
James, thank you for letting me know.
Vaughan, I have sent you a PM. Although you phoned me initially I am not sure which one is your number on my phone.
I would appreciate if members could confirm not only that they still want tickets but which pick up point they will use.
WE NOW HAVE AT LEAST 2 PLACES TO FILL.........................
Sorry it took so long to secure a bus but I am new to all this , especially dealing with the Belediere
Again, PLEASE confirm that you are still going so that if NOT, we can offer the places to others.
