Just wondering Sam if you could see if this is still available as it looks a good bit cheaper than the bus from the Academia. Alternatively could you post details of who it was from and maybe 747 Babysis/GT Travel could use it to bargain with the hotel. It seems that it's a 54 seater which is probably closer to what will now be needed.

Well I have to say this bus is just made for me, the hostess!

Bus GT, Bus Irizar Scania K124 'mod. PB 14.37', 61 seats.

Bus with 1 reserved seat for the Hostess. Brand new GT Luxury Bus, TOP 5***** Cat..

Bus Equipments: Air Conditioning, 3 LCD Screens, TV, VHS, DVD and CD Hi-Fi Players, Coffee Machine, Minibar, Headrest and mobile footrest, Small tables, Safety Belts, Toilette.

shame. saint07 that's u on
i imagine if we end up with confirmed numbers of over 54, davide at that company can provide a slightly larger bus from their range!

Actually, has anyone seen Pete (Finn) since then?
Last I remember of him he was in a field in the Faroes, facing a gael force wind,
cooking rashers on a trangia!

Hi all,
Could 0325422 and Reddladd and others in sunflowers hostel getting a bus organised by a "davide", please find out if davide is bus company rep from http://www.sambianchini.it/en/noleggio-pullman.htm
or it just a plain davide from sunflower hostel. Thing is our contact, davide is arranging our bus with sambianchini.it above and if same guy we can tell him to provide one larger bus for everyone!

This would be a great help, could someone do it?

Update on hotel accademia;

The buses company make that price, because we must reserve another bus for you. The other guests, they have reserved their rooms with transfer included, directly with us in October 2006 all together.* You have reserved your room without the transfer, and now the price for the bus is more expensive for us. We have more guests that are going to San Marino, the price is also expensive because the transfer is in the night and not in the day.
I�m waiting for your answer as soon as possible.
Thank you very much
Kind regards
Ada Foscarini.
Booking - Hotel Accademia

So I have declined their offer of the bus cos at E39 pp it is just totally unfair. They have been informed.

Did Davide say what the small fee would be and how many seats were on the bus he was proposing? Do you know how many have requested a bus from the Sunflower?

The GT BUS (as it is to be called from now on

) will give longer in San Marino where it appears that the Sunflower Bus will work around the time of the match, probably arriving 1 hour before and leaving 1 hour after.

I think that if things work out with the GT BUS (and who would doubt that they will

) there are bigger buses available and maybe if we (or more correctly GT) could arrange to get the bigger bus the Sunflower bus might not be required.

Just saw that the numbers for the GT BUS are at 46 including the "Sunflower 7" and "Murty 7"

What do people think ???

**Reddladd** · 11/01/2007, 1:45 PM

I see 0325422 has emailed the Davide fella from the Sunflower.
The timing of GT's bus (as it's now called) is perfect. Get up to San Marino about 1pm or so and back after the game so I would defo be interested in going on that. Myself and 4 others. Cheers GT.

**collie** · 11/01/2007, 1:46 PM

Not 100%.have to check it out.Our Hotel is suppose to be 2km from the citycenter

**SuperDave** · 11/01/2007, 2:50 PM

match time of the germany game (san marino's only home weekday game to date) was 1945 UK time, so 2045 italy time. seems ideal. though of course the appennine (sp?) february is probably not quite as pleasant as their september.

also all their games in midweek in the last campaign were 1930 (UK time) kick offs (so 2030). i'd imagine it'll be round then. must check with davide what time the sunflower bus is going. we'll probably not even be in rimini to 1500 hours italy time. still plenty of boozing time though. also, for those of you staying at the sunflower, they have a 24 hour licence for all night funtime drinking parties.
