[03:37] <nigelb> morning
[06:47] <YoBoY> good morning
[06:49] <BigWhale> Ok, who decided to put 'good' in front of the morning? :>
[06:54] <YoBoY> don't know... my english teachers always wanted that way
[07:38] <dholbach> good morning
[10:11] <nigelb> YoBoY: hey, is this you? https://launchpad.net/~yoboy-leguesh
[10:11] <nigelb> (I'm mailing all ugj bootcamp instructors)
[10:40] <toros> hi
[10:42] <toros> I've just seen that we have to register for UDS here too: https://forms.canonical.com/udsreg/
[10:42] <toros> and there is a question asking "Who is your attendance requested by?"
[10:42] <toros> what should I write here? I will be participating on behalf of the Hungarian LoCo
[10:43] <YoBoY> nigelb: yes this is me :)
[10:43] <toros> Should I put there "Hungarian Ubuntu LoCo" or choose the "Canonical" option?
[10:43] <YoBoY> nigelb: but you can also write at yoboy@ubuntu-fr.org :D
[10:43] <BigWhale> toros: I had the same problem :)
[10:43] <nigelb> YoBoY: already sent
[10:43] <toros> BigWhale: ohh :)
[10:44] <BigWhale> not sure what I put there
[10:44] <toros> BigWhale: where are you from?
[10:44] <BigWhale> Slovenia :)
[10:45] <czajkowski> toros: have you applied to be sponsored?
[10:45] <toros> czajkowski: no
[10:45] <toros> actually, our house is only 10 minutes walk from the Hotel :)
[10:45] <czajkowski> toros: ok. 
[10:46] <BigWhale> And I thought I am close, bcs I have only three hour drive :>
[10:46] <czajkowski> 10:42 < toros> what should I write here? I will be participating on behalf of  the Hungarian LoCo
[10:46] <czajkowski>  YES
[10:50] <toros> czajkowski: then I will just write Hungarian Ubuntu LoCo
[10:50] <toros> I hope that many people will be participating from our LoCo
[10:51] <toros> we wanted to organize some events too (like sightseeing)... but it is very hard to organize for hundreds of people
[10:51] <czajkowski> toros: indeed, my advice is to put up a list of places ye may recommend and then let people decide themselves
[10:52] <czajkowski> and offer to go with people to translate or to be a guide
[10:52] <toros> that's a good idea
[10:54] <czajkowski> toros: it's hard to get large groups doing things, but putting a selection of what could be recommended in the evenigns always helps and then lets people plan the week around meet ups
[10:54] <toros> Budapest is famous for its Ruin Pubs: those are large pubs in old buildings... we could visit those too: http://ruinpubs.com/index.php
[10:54] <czajkowski> toros: what is the currency that is most used there?
[10:54] <toros> czajkowski: Hungarian Forint
[10:55] <toros> 1 Euro = 266 HUF
[10:55] <toros> 1 USD = 189 HUF
[10:56] <toros> prices are similar to western european prices... food and drinks in restaurants are somewhat cheaper
[10:57] <czajkowski> and sterling ?
[10:57] <toros> we have only one currency
[10:58] <toros> as you see, the worth of 1 HUF less than 1 Euro Cents
[10:59] <toros> the smallest coin is the 5 HUF
[11:01] <toros> usually shops and restaurants do not accept Euro... or even if they do, the conversion rate is pretty bad. So it is better to exchange your money, or to use your credit card
[11:01] <toros> we will write a "Survivors Guide for Hungary" before the UDS
[11:01] <czajkowski> :)
[11:04] <dholbach> Budapest rocks :)
[11:07] <toros> dholbach: true :)
[11:08] <dholbach> I hope it'll be nice and warm around the time :)
[11:08] <dholbach> I really liked the island in the Danube, but forgot its name
[11:08] <dholbach> and the one place there they turned a whole building in a bar (rather a set of bars) - really nice, but I forgot the name too :)
[11:10] <toros> dholbach: Instant?
[11:10] <toros> there are many pubs like that in the city
[11:11] <dholbach> sorry, I can't remember the name - it's been a while
[11:54] <JanC> toros: according to my parents who went to Budapest last year, eating out was *a lot* cheaper than in Belgium, not "somewhat"...
[12:16] <toros> JanC: well, yes, that might be true...
[12:17] <toros> A typical food costs around 6 to 10 euros in a cheaper restaurant
[12:17] <toros> A Big Mac Menu costs around 4.50 Euros
[12:18] <toros> A beer costs about 1.50 to 2 Euros
[12:18] <czajkowski> cider???
[12:20] <toros> cider is not very common in Hungary, so I don't know the prices :)
[12:20] <czajkowski> :(
[12:20] <mhall119> you and that cider
[12:20] <toros> people here usually drink beer or wine... or pálinka :)
[12:20] <JanC> so a typical cheap meal in Belgium would cost twice as much as in Budapest
[12:21] <JanC> beer isn't that much more expensive in Belgium though, but IME beer is relatively cheap over here compared to the rest of Western Europe
[12:22] <toros> actually, there are pubs where a beer is under 1 Euro... but I never would there to go those pubs :)
[12:23] <toros> I mean I never would dare to go in those pubs
[12:23] <JanC> for security or health reasons?  ☺
[12:24] <toros> JanC: yes :)
[12:24] <BigWhale> toros, are there any hostels or bed & breakfast accomodations around that place? Preferrably within a walking distance and a parking space. :)
[12:25] <BigWhale> That hotel is a wee bit too expensive for me :/
[12:25] <toros> BigWhale: yes, there are many
[12:25] <BigWhale> I'll have to look into that, before everything is booked. :>
[12:26] <toros> BigWhale: please send me a mail to toros@ubuntu.hu and I will send you links
[12:28] <BigWhale> Will do, great!
