15th Return Gburg - Stanstead 2150 - 2250.

We have decided to stay an extra night and have a relaxing evening and day in Gburg the next day (Thursday.)
Good stuff

My flights are now booked. Flying SAS from Edinburgh to, initially Stockholm then second flight to Gothenburg arriving approximately 5.30pm. Managed to get a later flight on the Thursday from Goteborg to Stockholm, 2 hour wait then flight back to Edinburgh. £267.15. Lots of hotels in city centre but just cannot make up my mind yet. Been in touch with Gordy who quite fancies going on the boat - Ibis Styles. Apparently this is where Michael Portillo stayed while filming one of his railway trips.
Anyone got any ideas then please let me know.
New Volvo any local knowledge?

I've seen that hotel it's if people's budgets can stretch to the cost as plenty cheaper places.

Glad you sorted flights.

It's £8-ish to eat at factory
