Not much room in the Zenos with both of us in it.
Any volunteers ? :-)
Yes Kenny, best to secure yourself a 'Butler' with support vehicle (eh Neil). :)

A single occupant Exige has proven ideal in the past, they usually have reasonable (and relatively secure) storage facilities for ferries/car parks.
The Symbiant gains little from the relationship other than reflected glory and maybe the occasional pint/pax.

You seem to need more support than most Ali! I can provide butlering on the way out but will be looking to dump a few things on someone else for the way back after picking up my pax in Monaco

Unless I end up with an unexpected pax, I can offer a valet luggage service, Kenny :-)

I'm also aligned with your choice of stopover points. They seem remarkably familiar ;-)

Hope to book mine today.

That's excellent Campbell, thanks.

I knew you were at IBIS Saint-Pouilly Genève on Saturday night, the IBIS Saint-Quentin I just booked because it seemed not to far off the route. Thought it would be good to get a reasonable start time on the Saturday rather than your planned middle of the night shennangins :lol:

I was trying to emulate Robin.

But it's futile, I now realise :-)

It's all the haircare products that he requires, takes up a lot of space. :)

Sunscreen and ballistic eye protection...

I think Jeeves is referring to garage opening, bag carrying, beer waitering etc. for which he is a worthy manservant and much abused. :)

For info, Saint Quentin I assume is the "IBIS Budget", as it has its own parking? That's the one I've just booked anyway. It's not far from the other "IBIS" full fat, but that one doesn't have its own parking.

As for Chunnel, I was considering buying a Flex Return. But for £400 it nipped a little, so I think I am going to go for:

Outward - Friday 14th - 21.50

Return - Sunday 23rd - 07.50

Total = £184 pikeytastic.

The return booking means belting up through France during Saturday 22nd, pretty much non-stop until Calais where there is both an IBIS Budget and an IBIS "full fat". I've just booked the Budget (pikeytastic once more), and since it's right next door to the Full Fat one we can still get a nice dinner and beer if need be :-)

Then deposits us fresh into Blighty on Sunday morning for the joys of a cruise back up home.

Yes, the budget one in Saint-Quentin due to having parking.
I'll probably get an earlier Chunnel on the Friday but the return one on Sunday matches what I'm planning.
Got to be home Sunday afternoon to collect the hounds from the kennels.

That's cool, Kenny. Just didn't fancy parking up on M25 immediately after the Carlimits day at North Weald, may as well enjoy a meal break while the crowds subside ;-) Choosing a later departure just takes the stress out of everything in my case.

Just bitten the bullet and booked. Not much left to fix up now...a Telepeage type thingy, and a pre-Frolic service, perhaps ;-)

Campbell,

We are going to have to buy one of these too. Something to do with the Peage Grand Prix, I have heard. :twisted:
