Haven't been on for a few days and have just read Donald's road rash posts. Horrid. And scarey. God, there but for the grace of you know who go we all.
Recover well, Donald.
God, the idea of a hotel room is sooooo tempting. But I want to be with other pirates, so the tent it is.
easy kanga lol, there will be no cut off in sight this year !
Just trying to work out the nights in hotel and what days to travel, I reckon we will be travelling down to Dover on the Wed night, staying in a hotel near Dover and then going Thursday morning early on the Dover to Calais and coming back Wednesday night on the return ferry, last year from Zurich after the Monday night party we left on the Tuesday morning to get the 6pm ferry and it was a horrible journey with hangover and only just made it, we are going to have a relaxing day on the Tuesday this time.
Will be booking tomorrow and sorting out my hotel nights again.
I suspect subscribers will get it first?
Righto - time to unashamedly throw myself on the mercy of the Pirates..
Some of you may know that times have been tough of late and it has been touch and go if I could afford to get to Roth. However, a very good friend has offered to drive over there with me, and we are staying at the Roth campsite which is free, albeit low on facilities! However, she needs to be back at work on Tuesday and selfishly, i don't want to miss the Pirate Party on Monday and I'm not sure the day after I want a 640 odd mile road trip... So, I'm going to see if I can get a very very cheap flight back to the UK - I need to head back to London, as that is where all my stuff will be going, although that's not vital - I can always get the kit back later on. Quite sure i won't need my bike for a while! So, can anyone either recommend me a flight, or, offer me a lift back to the uk and offer me a bed for the Monday night...?
Sorry to be a pain.
Am sure we can squeeze an extra bod into tentingham palace on the Monday night - you can even have your own room, seeing as it's a three bedroom tent....
Back seats will be down in the car and full of stuff though, so no help re lift....
Oh Trog that would be fabulous! Thank you so much!!! I'll figure out the logisitics of Dover to Wales - can't be that hard!
Pirate Party here i come!!
(I should also mention that FB and Petal offered me a place too, but couldn't fit my bike - don't want their generousity to go unmentioned though!)
If you wont need the bike for a while I can collect it from Trogs an bring it up to the JW or similar?
Min, why isn't your friend bringing your bike back for you?
Min - sorry, have just been reminded that I've promised bike transport to someone else (memory like a sieve
) so taking your bike may not be an option.
I've got easy access to 3 road style bikes so will try to have a bit of a play tomorrow to see how many I can fit in while still allowing space for kit/tent/etc.
Okey dokey...!
Ditchy - she can, but it would be better if it came back with me and then I wouldn't have to get it from hers in London - no biggie if it ends up there though!
Thanks Meldy -will bear that in mind, depending on how Trogs bike juggling goes! All else fails, I can put a bit in several cars... LOL!
Min - if it helps we can take you and your bike and drop you somewhere around the M25 for a station into London - we're in Essex but can drop your bike off at Meld's as she's not a million miles away.
So many choices
Thanks Tired Legs - that sounds a like a fab option, cos it would mean I can get back to Wales on the Tuesday from Euston.... I can get a fare Tuesday evening for about a tenner - yay!
Melds - are you sure you're okay to look after my bike for a while?
