this week was suposed to be daughters baby arival week it came early
( for me organisation is not my thing more of spur of moment thing and hope it works out)
not to worry as i expect this will happen again
will join you then
thanks for the welcome
Oh What a shame you can't make it, I contacted the Ld Lines here and you could come over on the 21st arriving the 22nd, but you'd have to stay at Le Havre a night until the others got in the next day, but it is an Option, the ferry back is ok there are spaces the same day as the everyone else goes.
Le me know if it's possible.
I can't wait to see you all, I'm thinking there's going to be a good turn out on the Sunday too for our afternoon ride out.
ohhhh I could crush a grape !!
iv been thinking on that but i dont speak or understand french at all =
1 simpleton
in strange place at night not knowing whats going on

hope this makes sence
off to work now
thanks everyone
I have spoken to Norman (havfun) and there is room on the ferry for the bike but no free accomodation.
I spoke to Jim and he is fairly sure he has a cabin, and the girls both have a seat as well. So between the 5 of us we should have accomodation for 10 people.
I will give Havfun my booking reference which he can quote to LD Lines and then on the night he can use Jim's cabin or one of the seats.
So it should be possible if he can get everything in place in time.
I spoke to Ld this morning and there was no room for the bike, so Maybe they've had a cancellation which is Great !!!!!! Would be good if you could join us Norman, I've been trying to look into B&Bs in Le Havre that speak english, Britany ferries and all sorts today, so would be great if you could get on. Still got time it's only Wednesday tomorrow, but soon be here, best I start Ironing the bedding eh ?? !!
There will be room for Norman if theres room for the bike... John, Im in ur cabin with Jenny so my seat will be free. You will also have a spare bed.. Maybe Cally could have that one.. Jim does have a cabin and room for 3 more.. Cant see there being a problem.
2 more nights !! And hopefully with Norman. Got to go out now, so will check back later and see if it's a goer, I'll even iron extra bedding in hope !!
Don't forget : Passports, Cidre Money, insurance documents, spare bulb ( In order of importance !!) x
so all done then great about have fun:) as well yes cabin sorted and bike checked over by friendly bike shop, chain oiled and adjusted, all levels topped up tyres good and sorted pressures,
rac break down through bennetts and cheaper than rac (who i am with lol) (but no worries )
lights not done yet but tape and yes the breathalizer comes in on 1st JUly (good good)
E11 not upated that yet as have one (oh and travel insurance will get from post office tomorrw ) could have done it today when i got my euros (doh)
Just spoken to Norman. He is coming over to mine tonight, so we can all set off together tomorrow.
