In advance it will be about £60 return, in the past I've always gone Tunnel with Tesco as first option, but after last years constant fiascos at the tunnel with security and delays, I think I'll just go ferry this year in case the hassles kick off again.

Cheers Clem, i like the ferry its more like a holiday rather than a cattle train. See you on the other side.

 

[K@rlos]

I'll be there with the missus. Sleeping in the streets again :lol:

 

[cooky73]

What hotel do people recommend for Saturday night?

 

[cooky73]

Or campsite

 

[toffo24]

come take my advice avoid the ferry as I got stuck there after EBi for 8 hours and ended up on the Chunnel. If you are going by boat go to Dunkirk as the run into Calais is a gauntlet lately with asylum seekers throwing rocks at cars and lorry to make them stop.

Im 40 next year (2016)............... 8)

Baz..... Im working on it!!! :mrgreen:

 

[toffo24]

Channel tunnel prices on the rise folke , don't leave it too long :msn4:

 

[radish]

I've booked my ferry Fri -Sun if anyone else is going for 3 days try using e72x it costs from £59 return with dfds. I think e48x is for sat-sun travel at £39
It's a lot cheaper than the tunnel but obviously takes longer.

 

[cooky73]

Still up for this but not sure where to stay. Is the Ibis nearby? There are 5 of us so the van isn't big enough

 

[toffo24]

Better get booked in as it fills up fast!

 

[cooky73]

Would you say we book the ibis?

 

[toffo24]

It's good stayed there 3 times (Ibis Aalst) cabs about 40 euro into town but we normally meet friends and slit the cost!

 

[Clem]

Our usual gaff is full this year so we've booked into the Ibis

 

[Cab89]

Ibis is great, room for £41 and a great breakfast on the sunday for £10

I'm a late bayer and going again this year, met Toffo and some others last year. I'm in at the Ibis too.
