Ninove 2013

[Myvanway]

They are an innovative company and could produce an awesome tshirt!

Open to suggestions if I get thumbs up!!

So just to make it clear

Fri - Hotel near Folkstone, possible meeting place?

Sat - Early start for tunnel, travel to Ninove in convoy

Sun - Recover from show and travel back (rather not) or wait till Mon &

Mon - Return to Calais and get tunnel back?

Just to make it clear the Ninove show is Sunday, Saturday is just prelude and drinking session at the Roxy :lol: :lol:

They close the town off and you get to park in front of the shops.

Most of us normally head off around 3pm to get back to the ferry port but staying over on the Sunday night somewhere on route could be a plan, Liv & Steve (Ego on here) stayed somewhere on route last year, its just whether people need to be in work on the Monday morning.

Be warned it is a long tiring weekend so staying over an extra night is a good idea :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would rather stay over sun as I am prone to some sat night madness!

You do have to move your bus (if you want to) into the town centre on Sunday morning although some EB members have been known to be rather worse for wear on Sunday morning (not mentioning any names but one of them is a mod on here :lol: :lol: )

We could always liaise with Freddie & Kobus to see if they could get us a big EB space but the EB themed one was about 3 years ago

Wouldnt mind a small move on the Sunday morning as long as the gendarmes arnt too close!!!

My personal preference for safety sakes

Fri - Cruise down to Folkstone

Sat - Gentle convoy to Ninove with a bit of BOOZE after the drive :lol:

Sun - Show and the odd lager! 8)

Mon - Gentle cruise back to the UK

Will hopefully be back in the office by Tues morning!

But hey i am only making a suggestion! Open to all options

Shaun whats powering your badboy??

:lol: :lol: standard 1600 sp for now :msn4:

6 hours!! not while ive got a hole in my arse!! :lol:

Cool....

359 miles in 6.5 hours that's only averaging 55mph...................... :msn4: :msn4:

1600 sp all the way!
I think the only people that didn't brake down last year were the buses that did run 1600 standard motors.

Funny that. :lol: that's why I've stayed stock with 100% reliability.
Would really love to do this trip, but not with the Mrs. :msn4:

What the hell count me in.

 

[Clem]

I would say, the T2D cruise is a great laugh. A convoy of however many aircooled VWs snaking across France into Belgium and swamping service stations on the coffee breaks is fantastic stuff. Can't wait.

Friday to Monday is good for me, if someone wants to book a crossing for me I'll weigh you in straight away.

 

[67westy]

I think I could be up for this. Sounds like a laugh. Need to check into getting the time off work

I have had a look at the Eurotunnel Site and it is

£47 Folkstone - Calais 0600 - 0800 on Sat 09 March

£47 Calais - Folkstone 1400 - 1600 on Mon 11 March

That is under a short stay saver so £94 in total!

Not too bad really and those would be around the times I would hope to travel.

 

[terrier man]

It's gunna be cold in that Bus March time. never know I might pull. :lol: :msn4:
Might have to bring the Dog's they'll warm me up trouble is no Passport, come to think of it mines out of date.
Is there any chance of a large group discount for this crossing, although £94 doesn't seem too bad.

I think ( don't quote me) that you can get reduced prices for group bookings.... If someone's willing to book this I'm happy to transfer monies as soon as.

Think you have to do it individually Baz - due to inputting veh reg and passport numbers etc

Although if we all agree on a certain crossing I am more than happy to book up!
