Nice one scotty..:doubleup:

When we use the ferry, it is DFDS. Dover/Dunkirk 08.00.

or last year we used the EuroTunnel.

This something we need to discus ??

What do the majority wish to use??

555_Si 10-01-2014 08:00 AM

Tunnel was good last year, I do have clearance issues on the golf.

Red Baron 10-01-2014 08:13 AM

Well I've been saving my Tesco clubcard vouchers for use on the tunnel but I'll go with the majority.

Same as........
Much prefer tunnel on way back so may split travel.

Bolesroor 10-01-2014 10:13 AM

Tunnel would be our choice but will go with the majority :ok:

Red Baron 10-01-2014 10:17 AM

Works out a bit more expensive splitting it.

Ferry £94 Return
Tunnel £102 Return (£34 with Clubcard Vouchers)
Ferry Out £41, Tunnel Back £75 = £116 Return (£66 with Clubcard Vouchers

These are non flexible tickets.

Shane

scotty 10-01-2014 03:30 PM

I am easy as long as we get there and back . We can always do half and half .

Half and half is ideal but is more expensive ?? By £30.

What do peeps think???

don't mind Ian, £30 in the big picture of the whole weekend is nothing, so happy to do as others.

Is ferry ok for low cars?

Scott.T 10-01-2014 07:39 PM

Tesco voucher value triples on Eurotunnel, so the train ends up free or much reduced.
I'm happy to hand over any spare Tesco vouchers I have if it helps people out.

Yes it is, there is a option when you book for low cars :)

Nige 10-01-2014 08:32 PM

Ask to go on the lower dec if your car is that low. Big E pm me your home number as I can't find my mobile.

Scooby_Greg 10-01-2014 11:15 PM

........and the Tesco vouchers!

how does the clubcard thing work, if you have enough can it pay for the whole fare? Jo uses Tesco for fuel and we spend about £800 per month. Surely she must have enough for a round the world trip!

Red Baron 11-01-2014 01:19 PM

Not done it myself but sure Scott did it last year.

I just need to stop the wife spending mine.

SpecB 11-01-2014 05:07 PM

Save your vouchers then you can do the clubcard exchange for double or more the value in euro tunnel tickets.

Scott.T 11-01-2014 05:20 PM

Go on club card site and login it should then tell you your current club card total. You then triple tat value when you use them on the tunnel.
You then cash in a value for euro tunnel vouchers the use them whrn you book your travel.
I have £51 worth so £153 to spend which will more than cover it for free.

C. J. 11-01-2014 05:28 PM

And do you book ticket on the tesco site ?

scotty 11-01-2014 05:51 PM

Happy with that so what are the train times going to be for going there and coming back

Good question..

Total cost at the moment without vouchers £104.

555_Si 11-01-2014 07:00 PM

Individually please it will be a nightmare if peeps are using vouchers,

as I have no doubt everyone will have different values of vouchers.:lol:

Ian, when booking what did you stipulate to keep the cars on the lower deck?
Cheers :ok:

scotty 11-01-2014 07:53 PM

I take it you are looking on the euro shuttle website for the info on prices and timings .

Bloody regiment has just put a spanner in the works by asking me if I want to go down to England for 6 months to train the Libyan army which means I might miss this trip if I take the offer it means I have extra money to fling into my scoobie mmmm decisions .

Live for today not tomorrow.

Why can you not take a holiday from England then you are half way to the Ring :nod:

Good luck with what ever you decide :five:

scotty 13-01-2014 05:35 PM

Sounds like a plan can't see them going for it going to put car parts that I was going to buy tomorrow on hold and going back down to RA MOTORSPORTS tomorrow to get my quote as I think A pillar is more as a priority than buying another spoiler at the moment .
