I would love to come

I have just spent the last two hours searching the internet and apparently I cannot fly from London to Kiel

What fresh hell is this??

Yes, Hamburg is your airport. From there is a train to Kiel. I can pick you up at the station.

Hello Neal,
You could drive over to Göteborg. There's a big maritime museum there with a destroyer, Swedish sub and even a monitor, like the ones used in the American civil war. There are other vessels you can go on board too.
From Göteborg you can take a ferry to Frederikshavn and drive through Jutland to Northern Germany. On the way, just off the motorway E45 is a city called Aalborg. There is also a maritime museum there with an old NATO sub and motor torpedo boat.
I don't know if the route is the most practical for you, but it's an option.
And whilst you are in Germany don't forget to stock up on beer, soft drinks and chocolate etc. I think it's a lot cheaper than in Sweden.:salute:

Hello Blitzy:)
Yeah, been a while.
Don't know if I can go, it's a bit touch and go at the moment. Would love to go but the timing's not good. :-?

That is an awfully kind gesture Neal

I have just taken a look at flights and feel that it may be out of my price range a little (I am used to being able to fly to loads of places in Europe for about £50!:o Mainly by booking well ahead:))

But if my situation cnanges I will let you know

Again - many thanks for the offer :up:

Catfish 08-01-16 04:52 AM

We (wife will probably be joining) will have to drive via Hamburg, to get to Kiel. So if there's anyone to pick up..

Schroeder 08-02-16 01:09 PM

OK, I'll be there too. I'll hitch a ride in Catfish's car.:salute:

Onkel Neal 08-02-16 01:36 PM

Meeting at the U-995 at noon, not a second earlier. :up:

Will you guys still arrive on Friday? I'll invade Kiel in the early afternoon on the 5th.

Onkel Neal 08-04-16 04:39 AM

It is 11 hours from Stockholm, so we may arrive fairly late. PM me when you arrive and I will check my messages as soon as I find a hotel.

Mr Quatro 08-04-16 04:45 PM
