andylaurence 0 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I doubt it'll be too busy. Whilst Easter is traditionally the first busy weekend of the year, it's too early this year, so that'll put off a lot of people. If it's like Easter 08 with all that sunshine, then it'll be busy as you like. That's great for things (cars and women) to see, but not so great for lappery.I had the busiest lap I've ever done in August when it was really hot. We went out after it'd closed for hours, opened for 10 minutes then closed for another 30 minutes. It was utterly busy and full of crazy loons. One guy dived down the inside of two of us at Aremburg. Missed us by an inch or so. I didn't see him until I turned in because he was behind the guy I'd overtaken at Flugplatz.I'm still tentative but I'll let you know in the week before if Family Laurence are awake enough to come.

bungy 2 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I had a quick look at European breakdown cover this morning and would appreciate some advice. I looked at Directline who quoted £30 ish for European cover or £39 ish for cover with medical aswell. What is everyone else doing / using? This was for the period of the trip only.

bungy 2 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I've got my EHIC from when I go snowboarding but just wondered if that sounded about right and if it was a worthwhile policy, ie exclusions and stuff. I'm gonna pay for this soon and keep chipping away at different things that need paying to spread the cost. By the time we go I should just have to take my spending money.

Ben Seabrook 4 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 yeah around £30 is about right mate and Direct Line are good - I am going to sign up to http://www.adac.de/ as you get European cover and they use the AA over here Link to post Share on other sites
