.

Having mine re-mapped the week prior to this meet. I'll also be making collections on the day for the Salvation Army so dig deep!!

just done an enquiry leaving Southampton at 8:15am and returning at 20:30 - £27.50. I would seriously recommend ringing them. If its confirmed we can only do online booking or on telephone then I'll do that.

Looking forward to it.

Word of warning if you intend to just turn up and get tickets on the day. I use red funnel a lot and they always do better deals online and before the day. Sometimes these special offers have to be booked at least 24hrs in advance.

Check out the website because believe me they are sharks (just my personal opinion

)

Quite looking forward to it now, I may turn up after all

devonutopia · 16-12-2005, 16:09

I got the feeling the £27.50 was an online price too..... If others agree I say we all book tickets.

So, looks like I'm taking my mate and his Missus with me, as its the day after her birthday and she's never been to the IofW (She's Canadian you know, thinks its like sailing to France

)

pixi · 19-12-2005, 22:06

Tell her not to forget her passport then

Good one.

Although passports are a sore point. She was allowed out the UK to Denmark whilst on a 6 month VISA, but on her return 7 days later they retained her passport and she was effectively deported back to Canada within a fortnight of her return to the UK....

Typical really - spoke English, was an economic +++ to the country,,,

£27.50 is very good..I paid about £45 last time I went to the mainland about a fortnight ago

chorsley · 20-12-2005, 22:34

i will try to make it if i can get a SWMBO pass

Jonny5ive · 26-12-2005, 09:48

Has anyone confirmed prices and/or booked yet?

Not yet, waiting for confirmation as to who is definately going, don't want be the only one!. Would be much better if we all got the same crossing though, what about the 11:30am crossing from Portsmouth to Fishbourne?. We could all just turn up and pay on the day?.

Sounds fine to me, however the general concensus (sp) was that pre-booking was cheaper

I am trying to sort out some discounted accomodation for anyone who wants to travel from afar.

I'll keep you posted

Fabia 12v · 26-12-2005, 13:49

id be up for 11:30 from portsmouth.

devonutopia · 27-12-2005, 17:22

I think to make a day of it we need a 9am or 10am ferry. I'd sooner book the £27.50 with the people I found. Either way I am a definite! Add your names if you're serious about going.

1) Jason (on his own at the moment)

Smokey Six · 29-12-2005, 10:24

Dont Forget, you West Countryers. That ther is always the ferry from Lyminton (35 mins) to Yarmouth.
That way you start at one end of the Island and get to see it all by doing a circuit. Where are you gathering for Lunch beer etc.?

Are the locals invited?,,Why not try the Aviator Bar at Sandown Airport ---Airport?? well airstrip-- Good food plenty of parking beer is OK too.

Jonny5ive · 29-12-2005, 10:46

DEFINATES

1) Jason (on his own at the moment)
2) Jonny5ive & SWMBO

Jason, is the £27.50 per Car??
