I have started to look at ferry crossings.

So far the best deal I have been able to find is Dover to Dunkirk booking through http://www.ferryto.co.uk/offers/index.html which links to Aferries.






It is only possible to book this ferry for £46.60 by ticking the "price compare" box on their site then selecting Dover - France, then choosing Dunkirk on the next screen.

Any other way brings the price up to £50.00 return.

Excellent Pete

Proccy can have a look at this and book me in as his passenger, can't you proccy

I can indeed - but if we all want to travel together we'll need to discuss and agree what times we're going/returning. What times are you aiming for Pete?

That was the one I was thinking of, the timings work out pretty well both ways.

We used it in 2010.

Booked

Also booked.

Another liver transplant - booked

Plus £25 each way for a sandwich and a coffee...

Is there any reason why you're going so early on the Friday morning? I was thinking about getting the 10am Ferry.

We just like to cruise across France and Belgium and take in the scenery at a leisurely pace, say 200kph

It's not a bad time, tough on the hangover from Ashford but beats the traffic around Brussels and gives time for the Friday night welcome piss up party

Come on, join us

Ah so some of you are stopping over in Ashford close to the ferry. Makes more sense now. I'm going to set off from London on the Friday morning straight there and don't fancy getting up that early

Me and bro are booking ferry tomorrow.

I may have to bite the bullet and eat a large slice of humble pie and join the ferry goers, at £39 return I'll save the cost of a grand parade versus eurotunnel.

Are these ferries owned/managed by Italian groups, by any chance? Recent events suggest you could end up anywhere, even upside down...

If any of you are using the M25 beware of the roadworks around the Essex area, i moved freely through them at 3 am yesterday morning ,but peak time will be mayem.
They will still be there in April i imagine.

And this is one of the reasons we go down Thursday night to Ashford, we're then just 30 mins away - last year going through the roadworks on the M1 and M25 would have seen us miss the Eurotunnel

Now also booked on the ferry

With a huge Truffle sized suitcase i hope

Mate, you are one of my named passengers. You're committed now

Bimey, how'd you manage that one! What with my criminal record and all.

What times you pick dan and for you truffle you are going.

and in english ?

Same as everyone else, 8am crossing on Friday, and hopefully like you, 4pm on Monday afternoon back?

Don't eat the pie on the ship, it'll double the cost of the trip

Thats fine mate just going to book them times now. Also with get bro took book them.

Booked as well for the 8am coupefest ferry

I'm getting the 11.20 Shuttle from Folkestone which arrives Calais 12.55 Local Time.
Anybody getting same train or arriving at around the same time by Ferry? at ports nearby Dunkirk etc.
It would be good to meet up drive down with other Coupsters

Lego, most of us will be long gone by then (if you're talking about Friday).

Yes Friday.

What time do you arrive in France?

I might drive most of the way to Folkstone on Thursday and see if I can change to earlier Shuttle Train next mornin(Friday) and meet you guys other side.

I seem to think we get to dunkirk around 10am, but i could be wrong - i'm at work and can't check

I'll pm you my phone number so when you're over there if you ring me we can tell you where we are, hopefully

So that will be 11am local time?

Ermmmm

no idea

lol they are 1 hour ahead.
when does Ferry Leave

I know the answer

but light years behind..
