[AW11 Forever..!]

Excellent Jon, I've changed your car details.

Going to be superb!!

[Mk1 Turbo Powered Steve]

Great to see you have put my name down and yes it will be a virginal experience for me
I'm not sure if Jacky will be with me but i'm sure, Michael! you will talk her into it at the Xmas party.
My car should be a MK1.5 by then, as long as Paul gets it all sorted, hopefully it will all be ok!
Try and convince Pete Kyte to come along because he will have my SC engine and parts, also being fitted by Paul and it should be good as he is our Mr Bling in the SE

[AW11 Forever..!]

Pete,

Reasons why you MUST come along, BIG Steve said......!

End of story, get your name down.

Thought it was the week after that?

[AW11 Forever..!]

Nope - provisional date 14th and 15th June 2008

[jon0406]

Have checked back and I booked the hotel for 9th June so am glad you are saying I'm wrong!
Might be worth running through the rest of the thread as there are times that it says its the week after, noticed it in 1st post and others.

Next year is going to be MASSIVE so I'm starting to organise it now. Provisional dates from the trip is Monday 16th June 2008 - Tuesday 24th June 2008. Sailing on Speedferries again and camping at the Chateau de Chanteloup.

[AW11 Forever..!]

Ok thanks, all updated.....

Hi Michael... Before I book the ferry, is anyone going to be going somewhere after le mans and making it a 2 week holiday like this year in belgium?

We fancy the full trip if there is one.

Pete,

It quite possible that myself and Joanne will be doing something, right now though we have no plans. The Le Mans MR2 event will officially finish on Tuesday 17th June. To be honest it only costs £10 to ammend your booking so even if you include that charge now its still only £50 for a return crossing, I remember paying £249 4 years ago for the same crossing with Sea France, how things have changes...!!

Some ideas we had was Saint Mont Michel on the West coast or another visit to Bruges, not sure, any ideas. We can have a talk about it in Scotland next week.

Michael

Ok,

My ferry crossing is booked. It's now up to £64 already which is why you must book asap.

I went for the flex tickets rather than the basic. They are only about £4 more expensive and mean you can amend your booking if need be and if you miss your ferry you can catch the next one without paying a fortune.

Cheers for the speedy reply michael.

Pete.
