What about a place to sleep?
For us speaking I think we would arrive on Friday and leave Sunday so we

Luton is perfect (as hint for anyone coming from Germany: take a look at

Ole said that he will not be able to attend for private reasons but I am

Huhh ... that will become some tough days. The weekend before is CeBit
