We're gonna try to do the same bit of island hopping. Might have to stock

I might have to bring my boots :DQuote:

Or the likes of www.FaroeIslands.com or www.Tourist.fo. Outside of Tuesday to Thursday, though, you could possibly get away with booking ahead on the morning though.
We now have accomodation available for the Faroes, phone Collette for more details 01 4081900, places still available on day trip as well from E560 inc taxes.
Cheers for that, much appreciatedQuote:

She is really helpful
Just had an email from her today and shes gonna help sort
out an itenery around the islands and accomodation etc.
Fair play
I might see if she can help me out with getting some traditional Faroese Headress :eek:
I got a load of us some green Berets for Paris that went down a treat in October, so I need to find something for this trip :D
The DCFC contigent have already acquired inflatable viking helments and axes for the trip- picked them up v cheap round Chinese New Year in Hong Kong.
Any word on those sleeveless fur bodywarmer yokes that were popular back in Viking times Maribor?!?!Quote:

Not fussed about the fishing, but myself and Pat O agreed that tuesday would be spent out site seeing, doing tours etc.
Then Tuesday evening there is meant to be a faroese night in a pub in Torshavn. Its probably the only opportunity I will have to go to the Faroe Islands, so I plan to make the most of and see as much as possible. Might even do the Helicopter trip :)
Yeah am plannin (along with everyone else) to go to the faroese night, but the fishin sounds like good craic. As for the other days, I was planning on travelling round for monday and tuesday, go to torshavn on tues evenin for the pub, match wed, then thursday more sightseein, before back to iceland (for a lot more tramping round)Quote:

Anyone who fancies site seeing on the Tuesday, well im sure we can all arrange something. Its only a small Island, so i doubt we will find it too hard to find each other. :D

We will be in big trouble if there is a "Tom" character sitting on the wall to greet us, wearing an "I shot JR" T-Shirt and carrying a shot gun :eek:Quote:
