Aha, thanks Mr Tim!!

Mind you, there's one extra outing for 558 before that happens ;)

I expect they realised no-one was going to cough up for 558 this year.... :p

I think you're probably right, although you'd have thought that they'd have benefited from as much publicity as possible by booking early and making it known. A large number have people will have already checked and seen that 558 wasn't on the list and probably won't hear about the last-minute booking.

I did also hear there were one or two other cancellations which may have eased the financial issue a little, though what those were I don't know.

Nice howl at 0.42. The reason there are so many trees in Belgium is the Germans like to march in the shade. ;)
