Long ferry booked for next friday, anyone else going soon?
 
Ferry booked

In four weeks we will be in the queue for the ferry at Dover for our first trip abroad in the motorhome. :drive:
Just a family and friends Christmas and a lot of packing and preparation to do first.

Nice one Bill.
Hope for calm seas and snow free roads.

I'll share a teabag with you.

Hoping for a nice one Paul, last time I came through Bay was in a force 10.

Thankfully it was on the Canberra.

If I'm lucky enough to get your way, I'll be looking for more than a teabag.

I'll settle for a hug from Jenny, and a whisky from you.:dance:
 
Just booked the Portsmouth to Santander ferry for January, decided to miss France on the outward journey and return via France in March/April, when there's chance of the weather being slightly better. This will be our first time abroad in a motorhome, so will be a huge learning curve as we are complete beginners only used it three times in the UK so far.

We'll settle for that, too.

Thank God you were not asking for that the other way round !

Enjoy your adventures... Don't rush.
Look on the European Travel Forums.
There's a long running thread.. " Spain/ Portugal, Where are you? ", loads of information on there.
I'll go and fire it up again.

Evening of Friday 11th by any chance? Might see you there. This will be our third winter in Spain/Portugal.

No we go on Saturday the 19th January, I was hoping to set of early I January on our travels, but we have family flying in January to stay with us until the 17th, so couldn't escape sooner.

Happy travels! I now have medical appointments that will make a us delay a couple of weeks:-( Nothing serious fortunately but you have to seize your moment with the NHS don't you.

I don't want to put damper on next Friday, but for us it is a pretty serious hospital procedure.
Anyway, you Guys going away, I do hope you have a great time and I wish we were with you!
Get the buckets and spade s out!
