Has she? Norfolk Line only sails from Dover, which is in Kent

Would have thought living in Essex, sailing from Kent would be ok?

To stop people like you booking on....

Nah, confused me too, but when I saw the prices had to go for it!

5/4/07 10am crossing
10/4/07 16:01 crossing

Should cost ya Ł66

Be good to see the M3, work out what I need to do to mine (which may still be going, if I don't finish the Cos in time!)

But it's all sorted now, i have changed my original booking and they have credited me some free meals as they cannot issue a refund for the diffrence. Not great but better than nothing
You no my thoughts on that hun.....Get Kayleigh to pay the other half. Why should you suffer and pay for it all

As i have just said to Jim check out Ben Lovejoys site for recovery as this is on there - Arrange cover for European vehicle recovery, either through your normal annual policy or via a separate policy, but note that AA 5 Star is not suitable as it specifically excludes the Ring. If you don't, and you have a crash or breakdown while out there, you will be facing a very large bill indeed for bringing it back to the UK.

Check out ADAC

Not to sure about the European cover with the AA as Lovejoys site only mentions AA 5 plus but just thought it should be put up just incase

I hope none of them are people ive paid a deposit on rooms for as ive promised the owner that we will pay in full unless we cancelled before end of Feb. So anyone who drops out will leave me with a 5 day room bill to pay!!

Ive already had one as you know Dan.

Surely they will be paying for it Stu? I wouldn't accept that at all

After all the King of Drains from Dan's weekend I'd expect more of the same with this trip. Shame really, as far from looing like they are in with the IN crowd, they look like wasters and get known by the term "King Of..."

Fooks sake people, if you say you're going, go.

I'll be there in some form or another, death is about the only thing that will stop me (obviously )
