    I've done some preliminary research into this and I'm wondering if anyone else might be interested.  If you want to know if I'm any good at this sort of thing, just ask anyone who stayed at the Mitre ( yes it was my suggestion ;) ) 

    There are a number of options......

    Monday October 21st, Amsterdam Paradiso

    Easyjet from Stansted (other airports are available) prices currently at £45
    alternatively dutch flyer  train deal from Harwich to the Hook including transfer from any Greater Anglia  train station (including Liverpool St.) £45 
    show ticket £29
    accommodation - twin room £25-£35 pp depending where you stay and how soon you book. Dreeke is staying at the Backstage Hotel and currently rooms are £35 twin, shared bathroom. £48 twin en-suite. They have 3/4/5 bed rooms as well but limited in supply. A bench in the Schiphol departure lounge is however free.
    return flight/ferry £45

    so that's appx £150 (plus munchies)


    but seeing as your already in Europe your there you could travel down to Brussels the following day, looks like around £30 for a train, get a ticket for the Ancienne Belgique (£27), hotels are again £25-£35 for a twin, then get the eurostar the following morning and be back in london in two hours for £40.

    extra night in Brussels takes it to around £230 minimum


    There is also Le Triannon Hall in Paris at the end of the week (£43/ticket) 
    Easyjet fly from Luton and a return is £70
    Eurostar return is £69 return
    A twin room is looking around £30-£40 

    A night in Paris coming in at £150 plus.


    Just some options.......thoughts?

    I would luuuurve to do this but it's trying to get the time from work and who to go with.
    The alternative is my house and I'm sure my Mum will do a plate of sandwiches for the half time break and a nice cuppa tea ~O)
