me & Russ have only really chatted it through .. outline plans are head out from Hull Thurs evening, head back Sun eve ( arrive UK Mon am ). Going to stop at a new car museum on the Friday.

Plan to stay in a hotel close to Spa so we can head out in the evening

Ferry prices are currently pretty good, just waiting to see if Brian can get better any deals if we were to book through him. Will know tomorrow.

Currently there is :
Me
Russ
Simon ( subject to employment / unemployment :) )

Could be interested, but I might do the tunnel friday afternoon then back sunday night again. Radisson in Spa is a nice place to stop, dead central, has underground car park.

I stayed at the Radisson a couple of years ago . It's nice but I think the rooms for that weekend are currently about 170 euro a night .

Subject to some smooth talking on my behalf, and another ' free pass' from Mrs Jury I could be interested in this...it was a great weekend on the last Spa trip.

Also tempted. It's classics at castle weekend before though and how far is spa from Dutch ferry (which one you taking) as may be lot cheaper to just drive straight there and back.

Will depend on bank account balance in September possibly as seem to have not been at home much last few months!

I've stayed at a few places in Spa also.

Will look into when back...
