Isle of Wight invasion - 2013 possibility (at end)

Featured Replies

Well, that depends if they are going to give me a good deal on my up and coming service :D

It would be possible to stop there on route if the deal is good enough ;)

BTW.....How many of you have satnav?

This could be important as I am collecting postcodes for nav points.

Bearing in mind the point blank refusal of any discount and even offering a used car at more than a new one from just over the water even including the ferry fare I was a bit disappointed with their prices.

I do hear their service is excellent, so it is a bit of a shame on the pricing front. Still I guess when you have a captive audience as a lot of islanders won't leave it's a non-issue.

Yeah, whatever Rich :P

For you beggers that are coming, I may ask one of you to pick me up a pair of shoes that I'm trying to track down :D Oh yes and the ferry fares wont be any cheaper than the £30 quoted.

Just noticed we'll be in the Isle of Wight when this meet comes over. Is there still space at the pub for 4?

The pub hasn't been booked yet so final numbers are still needed and it's still open for others to join. I am going to need to book it very soon and I really don't know how the pub will cope. Last year we all sat together on one long table, I think we may be split up this time.

Excellent. Count me in + 3 extras!

Pixi - If you need me to hunt out some shoes for you, let me know. Depends if it means going to a big high street name as I don't work in a town with a very big high street. :D

I'm hoping to finish the route from the Duver to the pub at Whitwell with satnav info next week. I want to take us through sandown and then shanklin old village through the twisties towards ventnor but dont want anyone to get lost on the way!

£30!!

Another year, another £3. :(

Oh well, will have a think on this one closer to the time as I can collect my ticket so can do it the same week.

Can't make this i'm afraid :(

I would have loved to have made this one but I'm off to Dartmoor on that Saturday to do some mountain biking.

Next time perhaps.

I will be booking the ferry sometime this week as I am unable to goto Portugal that week. :):(

  • Author

Yay!

I mean, oh that's really bad Will :D Don't worry, if the weather keeps up like this it will be almost as good as Portugal.

Did a bit of the rest of the route yesterday but took a wrong turn and couldn't be bothered to go back. Good job I will have Mr P with me or who knows where we may end up :cool:

Are we at final numbers now? If so, I will book the pub tomorrow.

wheres a link so i can book the right ferry :confused:
