Well Boss, thanks for the great results and Pursuit management and leadership course.

ALso thanks for the 3% pay rise last month, after the pension schemen, i get another 5p in my drinking fund.

Oh and thanks for the night shifts over christmas/ boxing day and late plus on New years eve, just because some of you think single lads dont want the time off !!

And thanks for letting the laws of this country becoming a total joke, with punishments not as sevire as a Big H spanking party !!

Judging by your reply, maybe your interview should have been for something outside the service.
Not saying I don't agree with your sentiment, but I wouldn't hang around in a job I was so hacked off with. Mind you, good job you chaps do.
Anyway, back to work please.

That Zeebrugge to Le Mans run is about 5 hours according  to Autoroute, but the route they pick out takes you through Paris. I haven't had the nerve to try Paris with MY driving yet... Might be a better route for you than cheapo old Dover though.

Still worrying about getting adecent ride across though...

From Zeebrugge I would go past Calais and miss Paris.

Without the caravan Calais to Le mans was about 3h 45m but that was going a bit, at night on empty roads.

It's more like 6 or 7 hours with the. caravan Zeebrugge is probably 60 - 90 mins up the road from Calais ( a guess.) It's a horribly slow crossing though.

Anyone investigated the cost of chartering our own ferry from Portsmouth, if such a thing is possible? It might work out cheaper than the Brittany ferries monopoly!!

You're either at Le Mans, or waiting for Le Mans!

Kinnel, that really is entering a world of fantasy usually occupied by rock stars and footballers. A lottery win would be the only way for us mere mortals could afford it, unless you know of anyone who has a WW2 landing craft for hire. Now that would be a laugh. HIT THE BEACHES.

The Caterham Club charter one of the fastcraft jobbies. I believe there are about 100 of them travel together. IIRC the cost is about £600 per head but that includes all their entertainment, entry (orobably not beer!) and the rather lavish setup they have in Camping Bleu.

The logistical issue is persuading everyone to travel on the same day...
