First leg under our belt, admiring the Norwegian sunset before morning flight down to Warsaw.  Really struck lucky with low cost flights which is more than I can say about the price of the beer so having a tee total night.   Anyone know whether there is a meeting place sorted for Reds who will be in Warsaw on Thursday and Friday?

alright Andy... will PM you but think there should be a few Reds in the Old Town in Warsaw on Friday (tomorrow) night

Been sent a flyer for a 'private party' at Gustou Kyiv with all inclusive £100/day alcohol, food and shisha. Not really my thing, but in case.

Have to reserve at +44 7956 437 496

Can't imagine there'll be loads of people at it, though if it's a private one.

How strict are they with the size of bags into the stadium? I looked at the measurements requirements LFC gave us - I have a bag that is just slightly over that by a few cm, will it be ok?

a pretty standard sized back pack I imagine will be fine. My North Face one is slightly bigger than stated and I am taking it.

I need to ask, I know this was talked about earlier in the thread but I can`t find which pages.

I`m planning on taking Euros and exchanging when we get there, does anyone know if the exchange bureau will be open in Boryspil Airport at around 4am in the morning when we land?

Can we exchange any remaining monies at the airport when we go back to return flight?
