thegoth 5 Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 SpeedFerries have updated the timetable for Easter :@ They do say there are going to tell everyone!Our outward crossing has been moved forward an hour to 07:00. Good news, gets us to the 'Ring an hour earlier albeit with an hour less in bed. Current cost is £79 :-DThe 21:00 back is now at 20:50, not much change. (Currently £59)The 19:00 seems to have disappeared altogether. My guess is that you'll now be on the 17:10. You would be better off moving to the later one. Don't forget you gain an hour on the way back, so arrive in Blighty before you've left France. 8-) TG Link to post Share on other sites

Are we all meeting at the sports centre again? If so, what time? Google maps reckons it'll take me 4 hours to get to Dover, so that's a fucking early start. Still, it's not as early as the 00:30 start last time!Cheers,Andy Link to post Share on other sites
