Well, I'm very interested. TFC, I'll put some noses out of joint to come, so if I sign up, I won't have to eat humble pie because of cancellation, will I? It sounds like a great trip.
Edit: I've signed for mid-October. I can't leave work until after 16 October. I hope that fits in with the plan.

JF Lux bought a copy, so I hope to see it soon.
I spent two weeks in the Atlas mountains many years ago. Amazing!
Provided that the big boss London doesn't throw a hissy fit (SWMBO said yes already), I'm certainly in. But I need to know that it's a reciprocal commitment, because it's a serious choice on my side.
JF Lux, c'mon, it would be great to have you come, too.

@NJF - yes I know it would be great...it's not me you have to convince...  
I think we should arrange to "spontaneoulsy" decide to have a meet (maybe a BBQ) that just so happens to "coincide" with the arrival of the DVD which also "just so happens" to be showing just as our respective SWMBO are passing the TV... The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Just been stiffed with a bill for £2500 I wasn't expecting. Spent the last couple of weeks trying to find a way to pay it and still do this trip but can't make it add up, even with man-maths. Sorry Iain, Del et al   Going, going...... Gone!

If I read that right, that's a bit of a blow to morale. Too bad, ND. 
<edit>
But, he asked, struggling through the fog of a late Sunday Armanac, TFC will still run the trip?

Sorry DSL but WHAT HAPPENED!!! I don't know...... I need to do some sums before I commit, and I'd rather not sign up until I can confirm we really are going - I don't like saying yes and then saying no closer to the time.... Richard......
