BigBus B&B accomodation on-site at Sunrise

We're currently discussing the possibility of having B&B accomodation in the form of a big red bus on site at Sunrise 2006 this year.

To help us gauge whether people will actually want to use this service (at a price of course), can anyone who is interested make themselves known.

I will probably have prices for you very soon.

This unit would have a total of 11 beds (split into 2 dorms of 4 berths (double + twin bunk), and a 3 berth dorm (double + overhead bunk)), with shared kitchen facilities, and seating area.

It all sounds rather good!

We could have it as the FW bus and sing songs and play games and and and ...... Hamster

Now theres a thought Very Happy

Well, as long as you pay for the bedrooms...no-one will care what you do!!! Though that sounds like a bloody fantastic idea....how about it FW?

Can you put your waddage where your bedroom is? my lips are sealed!

Festive Al and I would be interested... Very Happy

Can i park my lil camper next door to it if the FW peeps all book in? What a wicked idea !!!

Well, I believe for around £2,000 the whole bus is yours for the Fezzie, though I know they are partial to bartering so it would be most cool if we could offer them at least some income they can depend on.

I really am on the edge of making a decision here, so if you want to do this, it will happen!

Anyone seriously interested could help this process by calling me on 0845 - 009 6347 and letting me have some contact details to firm things up.

Thanks FW crew!

At £180/berth Confused

I'm out unless someone wants to pay for me.

yeah, too much for us too 'am afraid; top idea though.

I can't afford it either, but it's a lovely idea. Actually, its about the average price for B & B which seems to be around £28 - £33 per night for the Yeovil area.

Oh dear! That scared most of you off! Well, as I said, I think it's negotiable.
I invited the owners of the bus to join the discussion forum so hopefully they'll get involved in the fray and come to a cool solution.

If £30 a night was fair price for B&B, then 6 nights at £30 is £180, which is pretty much what they MAY need to come and provide the service.

We;ll have to wait and see what they come back with - hopefully later today!

sounds like a bloody wicked idea

Well, despite the marginal interest...big bus won't be with us as there was not enough assurances for the owners that it was worth their time....

Shame really....
