yes capetonian, if you can maybe give me a figure on the costs of everything that would help, and of course who will be driving up.

Denis (Skouperd) usually drives up every year, and has a couple of seats free in the car. I'm most likely going to be making it a road trip this year (can't get the company to pay for my travel any more
), so if he doesn't drive, I will. The cost of travel really depends on the number of people in the car, it's down to petrol cost pretty much - and if I'm driving, you can pay what you can afford for petrol.
On the accommodation front, the full cost for three nights will be about R1300, however this is where the slush fund typically throws in a subsidy for people. The Slush fund is currently sitting on just shy of R10K, so subsidies should be decent.
As for the rest, it's food, booze, and an (optional) rAge ticket.
Ultimately, the weekend doesn't have to be mega expensive. If we subsidised 50% of accommodation, and hit you for a few hundred bucks petrol, you'd get travel and accommodation for a grand. Not bad for an EPIC long weekend in Jozi.

Would you rather have Russian handle the books? I think not.
As you guys know, I'm flying up on the Thursday and will head back on Sunday.
Will be staying with Jonathan(Antagonist)/Jana (Lil sis)/Tyger as need be.
So I shall definitely see you guys for the Saturday braai and spectating at Rage, not sure about Thursday yet, that will depend on where I'm staying.

I bloody well can't wait! Booking my flight soon.
I'll contribute to the slush fund in advance as necessary; maybe if you could send me a PM J? I don't have fully functional pancreas so it doesn't take a lot of booze to knock me over, doubt I'll spend much on booze :P
Dammit! So keen!!
