Markus - did I tell you about fitting my oil temperature gauge?
I didn't get the sender tight enough, and it leaked - I lost about 2 litres of oil in one night!
I won't be doing that one again!!
Everyone please remember that the island is an optimax free zone - there is one garage selling super. That's it.

we'll miss you not being there Markus !
reminder to everyone - bring ear plugs (coz of Maffa !
)
there are several Optimax garages around Southampton, so I suggest you try and fill up before you get to the dock...
was trying to post the link to the shell forecourt list website - but the B*&&£rs have stopped doing it & now re-direct you to michelin route planner ! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Steve, yeah, I know, no-one to make gay comments about, I know! lol 
heheh, or a dirty car to write obscenties on. Or someone to get asked to be quiet as we're keeping guests awake in the hotel across the road lol.
Oh, and people! you have to go to that park place again, the one with the bridges in over the water and the toboggan run, that was ace!
So, when is someone going to organise an excursion to Canada then? hehehehe

Jen - how you doing! Well, the appt does have a den, so could fit a few bodies in there, plus I have a sofa bed too, and bigish balcony, and it is, at the moment, warm enough to sleep out there. Or if you are really daring, bring a tent and pitch in in Humber bay park, which is only a 5 min walk from my appt
Oh, and I am NOT paying for any flights :P
On a serious note, if any of you are in my neck of the woods, or planning to be, drop me an email and we'll hook up. I'm no expert on the big TO yet, but I have the resources of the TO scooby club to fall back on. You thought the muppets were a mad lot, you aint met these people!

From memory, a family room is about £85 and the ferry is about £45.
Date is 26/27/28 of September.
I'll send you the email when I get home... It should be correct!

Wightlink go from Portsmouth. I tried to get sensible prices from them, but they weren't particularly interested (they didn't answer mail or confirm prices)
Red Funnel were a bit more helpful, however since I booked the group rates, they have changed their time table and fares. Like Dyney, there are some loose ends to tie up. (We may end up going from Portsmouth if Red Funnel don't start to behave! - I hate indifferent companies... The trouble is the IOW doesn't really have a choice
)
MAFFA - One of us can send you the address if you like...
There's still plenty of time, so don't panic
The island usually has quite a low crime rate, but there's no problem with taking precautions....
