we were told;
there is nothing to be paid for now and you will be able to settle it on arrival.
By all accounts we are going on the chunnel
outbound on the 10.20am on Thursday 18th Sept.
returning on the 15.20pm on Monday 22nd sept.
The idea being to give us a bit more touring time. we are trying to extend the camping on site to allow us to arrive on the Thursday/depart Monday. (now sorted)
Your more than welcome to join us for both journeys.
Ok heres the agenda for Thursday 18th.
I'm meeting DaveH and hopefully Tonymac at Duxford (texico garage) at 6.30am Fill tanks..(depart 7.00am). We'll then meet Iceni and WuzUK at around 7.20/7.30am at M25/A12 services. Once over the chunnel we'll fill up and have breakfast.
JohnH, Iceni and myself are taking disposible BBQ's for the first night and last (Sunday night), so anyone joining us should find enough cooking heat. Once we arrive at the camp site (approx 4miles from main highway/a few miles from local town) we'll do a beer and BBQ food run.
Friday we'll have a UK Birdie rideout... from friday pm on it'll be as per Dutch Bash spec.
Anyone going can meet us at either M25/A12 or Duxford/Texico.
