      I’m in also. Would it be a viable option to get a bigger bus and have geishas and other interested non-playing party members along for the ride? Or is it a players only event?

      birdshit – doesnt this fall under the lovely lapthornes remit?

      Stats i think this trip is so all-encompassing in it’s scope it falls on everyone to do their bit. It’s a little bit social, little bit Business, little bit Pleasure and a little bit rock and roll.
      and you know i’ll be there.
