Default Gatebil 9th-11th July

As above, anyone going? Anyone fancy it?

I'm going on a bit of a roadtrip. More the merrier really. Always see posts from people saying they have been after the trip.

Well, bit of advance notice, it's on!

Norubnodub- Nice try but my party Jeep is already full.

BEEF- Get onto http://www.dfdsseaways.co.uk/

I just tried to check and it bounced me out. It's not peanuts but for the laugh and once in a lifetime side of it, it's worth every penny. My costings are more as i have a trailer etc etc

You can share cabins to keep cost down. The actual Ferry cost isn't "that" bad. It's the cabin cost, petrol and the cost of living when over there.

We are going Harwich- Elsberg- Copehagen-Oslo

and obviously the reverse to get home.

Our trip is going to be 5th-15th July, but you don't have to stay on that long. Only reason we are is i can't risk missing the Copehagen-Oslo ferry and as we aren't in a car, it's not worth the stress of trying, so we are just gonna get pissed in Copenhagen

Camping will keep costs down no end too.

Our trip bill is quite expensive, but it won't be half of what we are paying. If you get a price, swing it up

If the Ferry doesn't suit. Flights is the quickest and easy option. Usually a couple of hundred for flights, and similar for car hire depending on spec, size and duration.

Hotels are pricey and get filled early.



Squiz- The GTI wants to go to Norway. Do it! I owe you a passenger ride, you can collect it at the Rudskogen

haha, nice edit....i would be MUCH harsher if i was abusing those two though.

And i did try and check for Beef!

I got one side done, had to check something else and was timed out. Seems theres a million options for dates and cabins, meals etc. So in fairness it is better to check yourself.
