We will all meet just after the tunnel exit, in Calais, at the petrol station, for the others who want to cruise down in convoy
The travel agents are called Hermes travel and can take bookings.
As the trains get filled Eurotunnel increase the fares. Tickets can only be booked ONE CAR AT A TIME .
Call 01702 711336.
Speak to "Chris or Lisa" and say that Chris from Carnoisseur gave you the number, and they'll sort out the same deal.
The booking is for a RTN, coming back on the train from Calais @ 17:58 local time. Arrives UK 17:33

Just tried - they said chris has left for the day and they can't help me WTF......

 

I may have 2 ferry tickets and 2 rooms going, not 100 % sure just yet but looking very likely due to 2 people may be dropping out.

Ive got a contact over there who assures me there is plenty of hotel rooms going My not be the one your at, and might be a bit further away but he is saying they are 25 euros a night and usually have loads of room.

Will try and book this train ourselves thou and join in the convoy

stu, you gonna sort something out? fi so how about you organise and i give you the money

will chat 2nite

 

im coming along to, in dingys cos powered bomb

 

That only gives us Saturday late evening and Sunday then.

 

not if you go on the friday

 

We do usually travel down late Thursday/early Friday for exactly that reason, but not this time it would appear.

 

ah right, i thought you meant you will just gete there late on sat i.e. me thinking, get there friday lol

 

Booked the 7.58 one....

Need to be there for about 7 they said

FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK



3.00am start then its gonna be a long weekend

 

Same one ive gone for, just waiting to hear back from then now.

See you all there

Jim, talk to On-Ujah on here about hotels, i think he still have some spaces available!

 

Cool

 

Nath,
The reason for booking this weekend is because it will be a lot quieter and we "should" get more time on track due to that reason.

Also many have moaned about not getting to see the sights etc, so we are organising a sit down meal for the Friday night for everyone and then Karting on Sat morning and the Museum Sat afternoon.

We should have the track pretty much to ourselves on the Sat evening (apart from the locals) .

Sunday should also be quieter than normal, so there is method in our madness...

The following weekend will be stupidly busy (every man and his dog is going ) and I doubt we would get any more time on track for that reason....

 

Sounds good to me Mike

 

And me

 

and me but not in the fookin hotel si is lookin at as its 60km away

must be summut closer

 

Dan, thats the same one loads of us are in, booked through on-ujah?

We'll just convoy up and back mate, only 40 mins

 

Dan,
Well start ringing round (using the numbers from the original thread), or does Simon wipe your arse for you as well ?

 

ah, thats ok then i thought i was gonna be on my own

yes he does, and as hes on holiday i cant have a shit for a week

seriuosly tho, hes sorting out the payments etc so im a bit screwed as for paying for stuff like the hotel booking and the train accross etc on my pittance of a wage

 

Just been told my far is £118
Still, its sorted either way but im sure ive been scammed out of £7 somewhere

 

Mine was 130 IIRC

Doh!
