also we need to get GGarmy tix. that's the best way i think. if not at least go with fanatic.s part timers they may be, but convinience far outweighs it

basically this is the cheapest option. but there will be problems. firstly we can only get 4 tix max, and i don't if thats on a game by game basis or all up. it looks like a first come first serve thing, so we need to get in quick. whoever is doing it needs all the details(name, address, passport number, birthday etc). and if we do get 4 tix to each game, then how do we get the other person in. so what do we do?

Package C- hostel for us (2500)


the rest of them wil have to get match tix only and then get accomadation or soemthing



i talked to the ffa travel ppl, and they can't get accomadation just for the 2 matches, as they are putting a premium on the accomadation and transport as well. so it would be up them to decide what to do

and i'm at work on tuesday at 9 am so i can fax the forms. i'll look like a idiot standing over the fax machine at 9 but who cares.



btw the form is released on monday, but you can only submit them on tuesday at 9 am. so we are all good.



also need to pay the deposit on the day. that's 500. or you can pay the full amount. so we need credit cards etc.

and do we want cat 4 or cat 3 tix

Turns out that FFA server was down until 9:20 and the ones after that got in.
