Have got our tickets sorted, now just need to sort crossing and Hotels,prob going on the tunnel due to ease and pure lazy ness cant be botherd to sit on a ferry and they all seem to leave at random times.
Don’t know if any of you guys want to meet up or stay in the same Hotels???
Looking to get to dover for around 10-11 crossing on the Sunday morning drive down to Dieppe and stay there the night.
The following day visit the Factory and then drive back up the coast to Le Touquet stay here the night and then its only a short drive for the crossing the next day at prob around midday.

I was going to stay an extra night, works out expensive for the hotel and crossing back
172 phII
Where can I see when is the next possible date to visit the factory as I am unable to go on that date? Who is to be contacted and how, possibly the factory or... ?
Why only 2 visits per year, doesnt make much sense? :S
Thank you and wish you a nice trip!

LOL
I was bored, most of it is stuff thats out there.
Already had 5 PM's asking about stuff they had forgotten! or seen on the list.
Such as the high vis jackets, which they are now checking for apparently.
It was mainly because when they see a GB sticker, they can expect easy money from on the spot fines....from things visitors have forgotten.
