So looking at the post it looks like we have

BuggyBaggy
Davydoff
Golddiggah
Krug (me)
JP Jools
Dave

ie the northern contingent ....... I am sure there are others .... if your looking at this and thinking should I shouldnt I ..... I did that for two years.  I went last year (admittedly in Davydoff buggy) and realised my concerns were out of the window.   It was a great weekend .... so come along Northern based buggy owners and join in!


Apmaman, you know you want to  :D  And you could have the company of Golddiggah for most of the journey to Hull.

Awesome, I'll start sticking together a route plan in the next few weeks

This will be the biggest northern crew ever. ;)

One thing, as tradition states we all get tents up in record time and then hit the bar...hard...Saturday morning is always a right off ;) :)

Dav I will be super fast ..... in fact not even going to bother with the tent..... straight to the bar!!   But I have booked a hotel ...... well I had too didnt I .... Mandy is with me and she has to have an op this year and she cant be sleeping on the ground :)   Oh and the hotel is only down the road... walking distance (not the one on the other thread about IBW) .... and it has a bar!!!

So I may need another favour .... Looks like Arron can get the time off work.  So we need a chat ie being your passanger, ferry, where we can pick him up etc..... If you dont mind a small detour (fuel will be paid for of course) it would make life a tad easier.  He lives with his Mum so not as far out as me (near Hyde).    If that doesnt work for you I will have to see if he can get the full day off on the Thurs and head over to yours.  I know he only has the afternoon off at the mo.

Will give you a shout over the weekend oh and he plans to camp as he is not bothered about a hotel

Cheers

Tony

@Northern Crew

If someone can let me have any ferry details / times / contact details / meeting points / times etc  (like we have for the main thread)

I can then add them to the main page for others to join you also   ;-)up

The ferry I'm booked on leaves Hull at 20.30 on Thursday 1st June, and arrives in Rotterdam at 08.15 on Friday morning.  The return departs Rotterdam at 21.00 on Monday 5th June and arrives in Hull at 07.30 on Tuesday morning.

( check in for the ferries is 90 minutes before departue time)

I've not given any thought to meet up points or times in the UK yet.

DaveDND, the Hull sailing times are as above.  ;-)up

Right chaps,

Route plan for discussion



I'll be setting off from mine around 2:30pm on the Thursday this will get me to

Meeting point 1 @ 15:30
I suggest Sainsbury's on the A57 manchester Rd south, the will allow for fuel and we can get back on the M60
Krug
GP jules
Dave

Route -M60 - M62 to Meeting point 2 (55 miles)

Meeting  2 @ 17:00
Ferrybridge services, junction with M62 / A1

leave by 18:00 - this allows for food and traffic
Buggybaggy
Golddiggah

Route - M62 to hull (44miles) arrive 19:00 for check in

Sail 20:30


thoughts?
