£365.00 for two cars/4 blokes I think (could be miles out).
As long as it hasn't got an Italian captain I'll be happy.
We'll be at Portsmouth from around 8pm on the Thursday night if anyone's about.

That's about right Ian.
We've just had enough of the long drive from Calais so we can chill out on the ferry, have a few drinks and it's just over an hour's drive the other side.
We'll be at Bleu Nord and would be good to meet up if anyone's about.

The convoy through France is half the fun though! Heading down with an R32, R33 and R35 this year, all of which are tuned. Yes I have my work cut out, especially as I'm kindly carrying the generator, fridge, events dome canopy shelter awning thingy and assorted <beep> like wiring etc etc

Yeah would be good to meet up in BN, I'm not sure if I'm taking the Audi at the moment. Our group has expanded to 8 now so we need more space so we're taking a Q7 and either my S4 or an Overfinch Range Rover.
Can't wait now, where's my time machine when I need it.......
