En-ger-land fans - just get there!

We're on our way!

Believe it or not, flying the flag for England in Germany is easier than you think!

All you have to do is wait for your most organised mate to book everything, then pull on your England shirt, turn up at the airport and try not to get chucked off your flight for sinking too many bevvies before take-off.

From June 9 to July 9 the whole of England will either be in euphoria or deep dark depression. But if you're lucky enough to see our boys in person, then here's our top tips on where to rest your weary, bleary-eyed head.

With 32 nations going to battle, there's a whopping 12 venues for you to choose from: Berlin, Dortmund, Frankfurt, Gelsenkirchen, Hamburg, Hannover, Kaiserslautern, Cologne, Leipzig, Munich, Nuremberg and Stuttgart.

But before you get your lederhosen in a twist, just remember you only need worry about where England are playing.

For England v Paraguay on June 10, there's loads of cheap flights to Frankfurt, ranging from £85 upwards and leaving from pretty much every airport you can think of. The sooner you book, the less you'll have to fork out.

For a luxury crash pad, we hear the Steigenberger 'Frankfurter Hof' Hotel is worth your dosh. For a middle of the road option, try Hotel Excelsior and if you'd rather spend your money on weiss beer, try the Alpha-City-Hotel for a real deal.

For England v Trinidad & Tobago on June 15, get yourself to Nuremberg, now there's a good boy. To splash some cash, try Hotel Herzog am Dom, or downsize by crashing at Hotel Star Inn (the lobby bar is open 24hrs). If you just want a place to rest your fuzzy head, visit Hotel-Gasthof-Hereth.

For England v Sweden on June 20, Cologne has plenty to keep you occupied. Treat yourself to Steigenberger Grandhotel Petersberg if you can, or come down a notch or two by chilling at the Burns Art Hotel. If you really don't give a hoot, then Hotel Rosenflora might be your best bet.

Tickets, money, passport - and you're off!
