Hi Richard - If you have room for potentially two more - sounds interesting. The Wandering Star is wandering in South Africa figuring out who won the Boer War. I'm sure he will be interested. Otherwise me a single.

It being the season of goodwill to all men......
OK, I'll see what I can do on the hotel rooms.

(b) One twin room for NLC and WS
That's the lot.... Now DEFINITELY full, no room on da bus, complet, kein zimmer.....

All done.... 
The hotel has confirmed the two extra rooms, one single one twin.
Just need to book the pizza restaurant and finalise the routes and we are as good as there.

Perhaps we can order a steak Bleu just like the old times...
Ferry tickets booked Wapping Looking forward to it.
Can anybody recommend somewhere nice to stay in Folkstone? I'd like to travel down the day before and stay overnight. It doesnt have to be fancy

When i went on one of Wappings trips i stopped at the Ashford Central Premier Inn, not too expensive, do food and there is a beefeater type pub within 5 minutes walk from me.
Only fifteen minutes from eurotunnel, bit longer to Dover.

Thank you both
The tickets are still £28 but I suspect they wont be holding that price for too much longer.

+1 for the Premier Inn. Not having ever been in a detention centre or a Turkish prison but I am sure they are both nicer than the Travelodge next to the Premier Inn.
Routes down.
OK, here's a whole bunch of alternative routes for the way out.
I've no idea what the weather might be like, so I have knocked a bunch of alternatives out. Of the lot, I probably fancy routes (C) and (D) The route has a bit of everything, which is what I hoped for.......even though it goes through St Pol, a town crying out for a by-pass and where I was very nearly crushed to death once
On the way back where we save an hour, we can probably reverse route (I) taking us to the west of Calais, before a hop along the coast.

Stickers? Where?
Wanderer and I shall be staying at the Premier Inn the night before. The tracker beam of The Beefeater Grill is too much to resist.

In a rare moment of reasonableness I bought the trip team Beaune stickers last time, well I shoplifted them but its the thought that counts

Got me one of those £28 fares.
Sounds like this will be a fun outing.

Equipe Miller joining? You could be the tail end of the tail end. Or is that the tail wagging the dog? So confused.
