Just had an email from Aferry.co with details of special offer if you book before end Jan.  Checked out trip outbound on the tues and back on the Monday (of LM  week) - £46 return for car +3 passengers.

Del

Does this need a special code?
I get £58 for those dates with aferry.co.uk, aferry.com and Norfolk Line's own website.

No code, but you have to follow a link in the email.  It takes you to here:

Portsmouth has proved just too expensive this year.  The caravan doesn't help, but you can't pay £5-600 just for a long weekend.  I expect a week somewhere exotic for that price.

Websites were giving £150-200 for Dover, with Norfolk cheapest as usual, but then I tried the Caravanning and Camping Club travel, and they did P&O for £100.  I know its embarressing to admit I'm a member, but at that price.....

The SeaFrance Dover- Boulogne  route is a good price currently at £70 return. Saves a decent amount of Km as well.

So I think I'll be booking this evening.

Boulogne or Calais?

We are doing Dover to Calais - P&O - £92 return.

Ferry prices on Dover/Calais seem to be dropping a bit now, I've been looking at July/August and they have dropped about 20%.

SeaFrance obviously haven't been informed that they are supposed to have a Dover/Boulogne service, if they've ever had a Boulogne service it was a long time ago.

Now its a good job I re read this topic  it is indeed Calais!  However in my defence I searched for Dover to  Boulogne  and it came up with SeaFrance, and i must have speed read the rest.
Damn the excitement is getting to me. I got the price right though!
Sorry Neil et al!

After hearing that the Vomit comet was coming online again (thanks Lorry)I held off to see if any bookings came up, AND they did..!!

I think louis dreyfuss read my post and cut the price, I take back the Dick Turpin tag, I have just saved 45 squddies on last year £140 down to £95 for the same timetable out Wednesday morning back monday evening. How about it now Ian??? While stocks last..........
NO BRAINER - BOOKED  ;D
