    Well, I'll be there, probably starting with the qualifications.
    Who will be there? We can make a nice BC grouping.
    I'll bring my videocam to record some matches too, especially the Wednesday matches :p

    Well, I'm staying with my bro for some months for work, and I've been here for a few weeks. I didn't get tickets yet, I'll probably just buy them at the door. I very much doubt it'll be a sellout on the week. Maybe the weekend.

    I don't know any hotel in paris, but I know a brand of cheap hotel. It's called Hotel Formule 1. These hotels are all standard, it's like living in a lego cube (joking). But they are quite okay for the price you pay.

    First Post here Just to Say I'm going to, for the Friday and Saturday matches. Very much looking forward to it.
    Can anyone recommend a good Badminton Store in Paris to? I'm thinking of doing some shopping!

    There is no good badminton store in Paris, it really sucks...
    To find stores, you have to ride outside the city. It's a shame :(

    I'm already in Paris. I also talked to Ming Paris for my ticket. The weather today is not very cooperative. It has been raining the whole day. I might see Ming tonite, if not, we will meet tomorrow morning at the Stadium. I hope it will be as enjoyable as the Denmark Open even without Hau-ge. He is on his way back to Hongkong. We had a grand time in Odense with Yannie.
    I just hope both WCH and LCW can play. Win or loss does not really matter to me. Just want to see them play. They are always winners for me.:)

    OMG my poor Fastdrop .. yeah it rained all day long, First time since august maybe !
    I went to the hall today and saw some players warming up ! I was extremely delighted to see all the posters in the street with Taufik Hidayat. First time i see that in france ! ahaha It was really impressive !

    In my opinion, the hall looks quite small compare to some big stadium in Asia. But in france they never liked to do BIG things, for instance in Paris we don't have any big buildings like Taipei 101, pretronas tower etc etc lol (we just have the eiffel tower ahah ).

    Well hope to meet u there fastdrop and all the others coming =p
