Awesome news sanj
There are all sorts of plans going on. I'm going to get the tunnel on sat morning early-ish with Ron. I know Ed is taking the pikee ferry (I haven't got the patience to sail for 1 hour in the wrong direction)
P.s. Can we go yet?

Glad to hear you're joining us Sanj .

As for being pikeys, yes we are . And I also happen to know that you're not averse to a bargain every now and again . The ferry cost £38 return. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the train somewhere north of £200 return?

Dammit

Mind you I guess you need that head start to try and beat us to the bar

[robin]

Calm down pikey We'll be in the bar before you no matter what .... mostly because you'll still be in yesterday's hotel sleeping off yesterday's beer

Can we go yet?

Cheers,
Robin

[Sanjøy]

Happy to .xls it if peeps want to pm me there travel arrangements etc, mainly so I can decide how I can get there!

Was thinking of a 12v chilled camel pack.

Good effort Sanjoy see you in the bar

I'm planning an early Saturday tunnel crossing, but have to go via Beauvois (sp? - Ryanairs idea of Paris) to pick up Stuart .

cheers
George

Nice one Sanj, already looking forward to blasting my old car round the track.

I'm getting the chunnel out Friday night @ 9pm and return on Monday 12th July

Haha

I cant bear that sailing again - and you have flexibility with the chunnel, should you be delayed or early

at £38 you couldnt go wrong though, but I'm happy forking out a wee bit more knowing i've the fastest crossing, and the least waiting.

Now i just need to get Uncle Ron to agree to a rough booking time

Sanj - I'll post up the details in case you are interested

[Modena Scotland]

I will be using the tunnel on Sat morning.

[Sanjøy]

Thinking of driving down on the Thursday night do a spot of work in the London office and then early evening chunnel. S has taken a week off on the 2nd and might fly down to meet up in San Sebastian.

We're crossing on the Chunnel early Sat morning (26th) return crossing sometime on Tue the 6th (probably midday ish).
Ultimate Pikey method of using Tesco points for the Chunnel crossing (every £2.50 points = £10 Chunnel voucher). Less than £38 points return Ed!

How do you actually do that in reality Ali?

Had heard about it

[alicrozier]

It is a bit of messing about.

You redeem Tesco points for travel vouchers (do this online at tesco.com).
Multiples of £2.50 but gets you 4x the amount in vouchers.

Vouchers arrive in the post - provisionally book Eurotunnel by phone then send off the vouchers to them registered post.

You then get confirmation of booking.
