Just to keep the raving Askew happy coz he doesnt like small tight tunnels. Ferry Crossing for £85 return. You can book in on http://www.ferry.co.uk/ferry/index.jsp

I doubt it will hold for long at these prices.

Matt Oz,
Could you please book Jen and I a room, Charlie + 1, Bob + 1. We are also having someone with a wheel-chair coming in our group. I have given him the details to book the room that Rupert had at Easter, if anyone else in the above lot has already booked that, would they mind giving it up for him so he can be with us all? He will be bringing his BMW ZM Coupe (bread-van ) .
Cheers

Just back from a top day at hullavington. Looks like there are quite a few of us from Bristol now. What time do those wanting to catch the ferry want to do it so we can start booking. Its half the price of the tunnel!

Cool so you'll be passing Bristol on the way then? We can convoy up. Is it going to be possible to meet up again on the other side so we can convoy there too so we don't get lost

Hi Guys,

Id be interested in this, been wanting to go to the ring for ages.

Im in Southampton, it sounds like TaviaRS is not far from me?

Is this a bank holiday?? Which ferry are you guys from the south getting???

If anyone fancies sending me an email with the hotel they are in, ferries booked and any other stuff Id really appreciate it!

thanks

Andy

It can be booked for a tenner a day, but you have to stick to the crossing times of the two ships available.

I was able to get a quote on the website for a mid July crossing, 9 days, going Sat coming back following Sun, for £90. So it worked. Downside was 4.30am crossing on way across.

I thought I would check my usual ferry bookers, and got a more civilised crossing time and 9 day return with P&O for £83

P & O thing runs only for crossing until July 14th. Unless weve changed the dates of this trip, it don't count.

Now are we going to arrange times for the ferry/chunnel crossing, or shall we take our pick and hope we all meet up. Unless I'm not invited
