Hi Maurice,
Funnily enough I was thinking about that earlier this evening and thought I should post a question!

I will be travelling out on Thursday morning and need to be back Monday evening.
I assume there will be a few of us returning together and am happy to team up if anyone else is going on Thursday.

I probably won't be travelling out till Wed/Thur so would be great to link up with other late starters....

I'm planning to stay out for a 6/7 days after and possibly even take the overnight motorail back the following Saturday from Livorno to den Bosch in the Netherlands.

All a bit fluid at the moment.

Hi Dave,
Phil and I will be leaving Folkestone (on the tunnel) on Thursday morning if that's of any interest. I haven't booked yet but will probably go for about 10ish.

That could be good, i could get down that Wednesday eve and have Kirsty fly into Gatwick to meet me then we'd be ready to rock at Folkestone first thing Thursday.

Any plans on your route out and overnight stop ?

One new ball joint and a wee hand brake adjustment late the big growler has a nice new MOT so I really better get into planning mode for International!
