so to repeat myself ... thinking out aloud for the convoy for the 4pm crossing ( ferry or chunnel ) assuming you are arriving with plenty of check-in ( and contingency ) , so leaving LFG, its about 200miles = about 3 and a bit hours , meaning 12:00 depart sharp ? the benefit of the early mid afternoon 1620 , is you can get back to the UK, gain an hour, and still get back home in time for a proper Sunday roast dinner

Sounds good to me

Jimmy , I've also booked the tunnel on your times, i.e. 14.20 Friday, 16.20 Sunday.
I think its the getting on and off the ferry thats more of a concern after last time, trying to time it so the waves went down just to get off or on!!

Martin s

Good man Martin!!!!! Reckon I've chosen the wrong track to finally go head to head with you, but hey, at least I'll get to spank some more Lotus' to cheer myself up, lol.

So if anyone's up for a convoy, it's 14.20 Friday, 16.20 Sunday on the tunnel. Book now to avoid disapointment, lol

So far it's Jimmy and Martin.... The convoy of 2

You bringing a passender this time Mart??

[techieboy]

I'm booked in earlier on the way out and later on the way back (doing the double header). But, I think I'm going to cancel it anyway and do the Abbeville & Croix double header instead.

I think I'm going to.....do the Abbeville & Croix double header instead.

The one on the 27th & 28th March?

Right then, we'll have to look at Hotels next. I mailed Paul at LoT as to which is the hotel they will be using at LFG, but he's not confirmed with me yet. Does anybody else know which hotel LoT plan to use???

[The Batman]

i vote the almighty F1! £15 a night you cant go wrong. although will be more now as 1 euro is pretty much 1 pound....

[JimmyJamJerusalem]

This place seems nice. £60 per night

This place seems very nice. 90 Euros per night

This place seems bizarre

This place is CHEAP 31 Euros a night

This place looks like you'll need a tetanus

[The Batman]

so the options are: normal expensive bizarre cheap or make sure you have health insurance i will be useless and go with whatever the gang goes with

[AliM]

'BEST PRICE WITHOUT SACRIFICE', I think we should stay there just for that

[siztenboots]

must admit the first one ( hotel sauvage ) does sound pleasant

[The Batman]

must admit the first one ( hotel sauvage ) does sound pleasant

[siztenboots]

I think I will grab myself a bit of le McBreakfast , just before getting to LFG on the way down from Calais

google map route

[AliM]

must admit the first one ( hotel sauvage ) does sound pleasant
