I'm not bothered about going on my own on the Ferry but I can't understand why every one's setting fire to £90 by going Brittany Ferries..

LD Lines £124 any one else going? I am going on Wednesday night

Mark - doesn't the LD Lines ferry from Portsmouth go to Le Havre not Caen ?

Le Harve Yes, it;s about 30 mins west of Caen

I looked at the spec of the ship used by LD, and it looks to be a bit of a nautical hot-potato, having spent a lot of its time layed up.

For the extra, I personally thought that I'd rather enjoy the much more recent, hull-stabilised Brittany fleet

.

BTW, anyone know if the LD ship is stabilised, or is it a vomit-vessel

Don't know i was a sleep on the way over and the way back.

I just got a 5% discount on this price as well

that's the way to do it (the sleep that is, and a discount is rarely bad news

).

Hi Mark

I am planning to go Thursday night - probably LD lines as everything else seems booked up.

I hope we have met up before then anyway so see you soon.

I hope the flight back to wintery Britain was OK ?

Regards Jeremy

The Brittany ferry has an excellent bar, normally with some form of entertainment . . . it's like a very mini cruise. The cabins are good.

Generally I have never had a reason to complain which is rare these days.
