what nobody wants to go on the ***** for 3 days, g go-carting, go to one of europes largest Theme parks, cruise in the Wonder of the north german plains
and it still be a lexus meet..................
once you have got here, were only looking at 200 euro max for the whole 3 days, that will include the caravan hire, theme park and go-carting, plus food and cheap Tax free/Duty free beer, which i will be lovingly suppling
nearby, is Hamburg, famous for its.............ehmm, ...do a search on Yahoo for Rieperbahn....or ask andy hart about it
Hannover is also down the road, both cities are bloomin good for shopping, to cruise on the Autobahn(de-restricted sections), it would take about 40 mins to reach either city

Yeah come on guys, this is gonna be a fantastic meet
I suggest you DO NOT do a search for the Rieperbahn if your missus/kids are present
I have never been lost for words before, but that street did the trick
The German's also do the finest Wurst's and Kebeb's anywhere in the world don't they Matthew

Monster-Mat
May 11, 2003, 3:52 pm
well theres a choice between, dover-Calais, calais-hook of holland
it depends if your driving across or hooking up with Harty, i suggested to Harty Calais..its cheaper, especially if he comes across on Seacat

Driving Across Matt
Monster-Mat
May 12, 2003, 10:35 am
Paul, you have 2 basic choices...dover - calais, or Harwich - Cuxhaven
you could go harwich - hook of holland aswell i think
the least driving is harwich - cuxhaven, but its a long journey on the ferry,
the drive from calais is about 6-8 hours once you get off the ferry......seems a long way but it soon flys by
Chris.S

[i]I'm using the [b]Harwich - Hook Van Holland[/b] route on a Stenalink super duper fast ferry, only takes about 3.5 hours [/i]

May 13, 2003, 8:03 pm
yep thats right ill come up - thats defo now. but im flying. As for the ferry if you can do Harwich - Hoek van Holland then it will take you about 4 to 4.5 hrs to get somewhere near mats place, thats what it took me and i wasnt exactly driving slow! but remember that the "no speed limit" doesnt exist on all sections of the autobahn so do watch your speed!!!

here we go again. I was in the UK on holiday for two weeks. I missed Gaydon cos I had to return to Euroland on the same day as Gaydon.
Now we have a meet which is only 3 hours from me, but I may have to give it a miss as I am likely to be back in the UK that week.
