A Day Out !

[Bazza-old]

how about having a meet across the channel

a chance to meet our french members

stock up on the booze and fags

ferrys are cheap for day trips,

although it would be a long trip for some of the northern members, im sure the diehards could make it !!

[Steve]

This was offered by Loz a while back.. I think he and another member went...

[ricky_is200]

That was more than just a day trip though (and therefore more expensive!)

[vince-com]

Brilliant idea, Vote for :)

Will enjoy a lot to see you crossed the channel :)

Let me know what exactly you're seeking for, I can surely help you.

I could come for a day alone, not much because we're expecting a baby and my wife can't travel by car.

I'd be up for this but would depend on the time of year, w/e's are easier :D

[Bazza-old]

im told ferry is about £30 for a same day return

weekend would suit most people

sundays are quiet days in france likewhat ours used to be

perhaps vince can come up with a suggestion for a place to meet etc

ps i hear they have bk and mds that serve beer !!

[vince-com]

Calais, Dunkerque, Boulogne sur Mer

We can spot for a nice restaurant in the country side, will check for infos with some friends living up there.

We could choose a date and see how many people will cross the chanel

[djanderso]

£30 for the ferry and about another £200 in petrol for us "Northerners" :(

could easily save that on your duty free ! (if you drink and smoke a lot)

or join the aa home recovery- break down at dover - free ride home ! :P :P

imagine a convoy of aa trucks towing lexus's

Wouldn't be a good sight after lexus just scooping a gold award for customer satisfaction!

Don't smoke, but absolutely drink! M.G.D. Anyone?

[Fever]

Bazza....nice idea mate! I'd be up for it most definitely!

[norkep]

Do we have a date planed yet or is it to soon

[wildrnes]

[vince-com]

We could plane this in June ;)

[wildrnes]

[ricky_is200]

JAE is end July isn't it. June sounds good!

[Bazza-old]

june sounds good

come on claire do your stuff

[ricky_is200]

I had a look at the P&O website, currently the offers only run till end May, £25 peak time 12 hour day trip, £33 for up to 24 hours and £15 for an afternoon trip.

For a saturday in June it saying £106 so we'll probably have to wait a couple of weeks to book it.

I think that if we wait till end of may the special prices will be available in june

[ricky_is200]

We could set a date in June to aim for so everyone can keep that date free then book the tickets nearer the time.

Is Saturday or Sunday best for people? As someone pointed out a lot of shops are closed Sundays.

[Bazza-old]

Is Saturday or Sunday best for people

Any date is fine for me.....apart from the first week of June (1st till the 8th).
