Quote from: Zoomie's TSi Signature
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own daddy can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat the fruit of a magical tree. It makes perfect sense.

I think we talked about this already, but when you get a chance can you come up with some basic numbers on hotels, food and drink? Especially drink.

Especially drink, weed, and mushrooms.

I'll eat nothing but beans & rice and spend my money on the essentials.

I'll bring or catch my own food and sleep on my boat or someone's floor. But I'll need water and ice. And rum.

Rum's the cheapest thing here.

Accomodation is gonna be hard to price, until I have a general idea of how many/how long and whether we're doing a multi-roomed villa with a kitchen or hotel rooms.

Re: Budgets Reply #14 on: November 16, 2009, 10:58:23 PM
I kind of want to go if I am wanted, but there are going to be a few rules on this trip.  Luke is not allowed to act like he knows that the fuck is up especially when half the time he doesn't and if he bullies anyone I am punching him in the nuts.  Also, Nick has to teabag tricky.  

EDIT:  Oh and when I am in "working out the game" mode, no one is to fuck with that or they get yelled at and get a drink thrown in their face.

Between one organizer and another,

a. Get a rough itinerary and a cost for that figured out early. Easy way is to plan with one person, like Zoomie, what the itinerary will be and give people the option of coming along or not. You can change this later of course.
b. How much does it cost to go to a bar or club
c. Rough costing for various accommodation options...hotel/shared house/tent will Aaron have to pay to moor and sleep on his boat?

b. How much does it cost to go to a bar or club

Bars and clubs here tend to be free admission. With a couple of notable exceptions, drink prices here are fairly uniformly ~US$4 each, whether you're drinking beer or your typical mixed-drinks. Can anyone chime in with a ballpark estimate on how many drinks people are likely to want?

Also, what I'd imagine we'd be doing a lot of is liming in non-bar-type spots with coolers full of drinks, and obviously that's way cheaper.

I need a ballpark figure on how many people will be coming, especially for villa-purposes. There's actually also a hotel I just remembered that's under (or maybe around about) US$100 per night, and it's not a shithole. It's also not on the beach, but it's pretty close to a few. That might be an option.

Re: Budgets Reply #23 on: November 17, 2009, 08:23:33 PM
I completely agree with Nick, but please don't use me as the baseline. If I sail down I'll have plenty to do if something on the itinerary doesn't interest me. If I fly down I'm traveled enough (and alky enough) to entertain myself. I don't know that everyone else can say any of that.

The way I costed Japan was a little different to this trip. I just picked an itinerary for Ian and I and made the trip open-invite. I guessed at how much everything would cost, added 20% and that was the deal. It would be pretty hard for a non-Japanese speaker to get around and do everything we did.

For Antigua, since people speak English it's going to be way easier for folk to make their own fun. However are there any group activities you have in mind?

Lets assume 7-8 people will show up and rent a house for 8-10 days. What's the approximate cost for that and when do you need to book them by? We're going to have to rent a car or two also.

Basically, by the deadline for booking the villa, you're going to need confirmation and deposits from all who are staying. I would make it a fixed length and cost (say 9 nights @ $xyz) for everyone and ask people to put up or plan on finding their own place to stay.

That's an idea too. If anyone feels like perusing tripadvisor or whatever and then asking me about anything that looks good to them, I'm all ears.
