Dan

What day and time are you returning?

If I can muster up enough enthusiasm, I may ask for permission from the wife.

Tony -

I'm heading down on Thursday, late afternoon probably. Returning on Sunday evening, late.

If you thought Donny was a good crack, this will be something else thumb

Really beginning to wish I was a passenger again this year!

The worry of driving on 'the other side' on my own, is stressing me out a bit cry

I know I did it a couple of times last year, but I had MCMike and proccy sitting next to me each time smile

Cheers Taffy and I know, it's if when I lose everyone that I'll start crying laugh

Cheers shiny cool

I'm getting the tunnel, but am stopping over in Ashford the night before.

There isn't really a meet up thread.

People are meeting at Ashford or seem to be making their own way to the tunnel, where we all see each other then (well, that's how it was last year, but was a ferry last year).

I'm on the 7.50 Eurotunnel crossing, will be in Calais in 35 minutes from then, plus the hour time zone. Think this crossing will be the coop special smile

Quite a few of us are getting the 07.50 Euro tunnel and it says arrival time at Calais is 9.25, so am assuming the arrival time accounts for the hour difference.

You should get there around a similar time to us Matt, give or take half an hour.

For those that dont know.The ferry terminal is a good 5 miles away from the tunnel terminal. So if you want to convoy together i would suggest some phone numbers get swapped etc.
Just trying to help.

Problem is trying to relay the message on though frown

If for example shiny rang me and said to be at ? at say 10am, then the problem would be that everyones sat navs aren't set for ? so we'd get lost and then I'd have to ring everyone else in the convoy to pass the message on.

By the time I've finished speaking to everyone, we could be in Belgium laugh

I hope not, that would suck for you!

Others are getting the ferry, as to what times and where I have no idea!
