2013 Euro trip - Attendees from Ireland.

[Sailorbaz]

3 hours should cover it easy Baz. Stranraer to Dumfries 1h15 - Dumfries to Newcastle 1h30.

Sounds good, but will need to see which route the other Irish Contingent want to go for. I'm for Hull or Newcastle, haven't priced anything but think Belfast - Stranraer and then Hull - Rotterdam is the most cost effective for us from NI.

Meet you on the ferry in Hull for beers then Baz :beer:

[Sailorbaz]

Aye, sounds bang on. I think I'll be heading that way with JonnyS (if he's coming) and Chris. Maybe some of the Scotland contingent if they make their way to Hull rather than Newcastle.

Epic!

Nice one Baz - 2000 posts and a makeover, congratulations, now that deserves a pint of the black stuff :drinkers:

[Sailorbaz]

Ooooooh cool, so I have. A pint of the black stuff would be fantastic but it'll have to be the wrong kind of black stuff and be 'Coke' since I'm at sea and bone dry!! :crying:

Bollox, bollox, bollox..

My daughters first communion has been set for 25th May! What are the chances of that.. I tried telling the wife that my daughter wouldn't miss me :smokin: but you can imagine the response that got!

Is there confirmation of the plan yet as I could hop on a night boat to Hollyhead and treck across to Hull for the ferry on Sunday morning? If the main BMW Munich day is on Monday 27th then I think that's worth the trip alone.

UPDATE FOR NOW
BMW are just trying to put together a trAckday either side of the Munich dates so just holding out for them before going mad.

Quote:SUMMARY
Ok, so the provisional dates are 25-28 May 2013 (Bank Holiday weekend in the UK). Munich days within that are Sunday 26th and Monday 27th May with travel and trackday(s) being arranged for the 25th or 28th or both.

I'm not too sure Niall maybe Shimmy could advise better. However what I will say is there seems to be a chain of though that when we have gone that far we my as well go a bit further and have a little bit of a tour.
A trip from Ireland costs a fair few quid and a lot of people are thinking of spending an extra few days heading for some cracking roads. Provided the trip doesn't clash with anything for me and I make it ok I intend on doing something so maybe some of us could head off elsewhere for a few days ?

Either way dont be too bothered it will all work out ok :thumbs:

Niall

Can they not do something sooner :whistle:

[LeinsCSL]

Niall, that's a shame with the timing, but as Chris said there'll probably be a few of us heading down to the Italian Alps or somewhere for a day or two afterwards to try and find some snazzy roads to drive on. Defo worth trying to get over on the Sunday

Have you checked out where the nearest church to the Munich factory is btw? Could move the communion down there. Although not sure how pleased the priest would be when your daughter arrives in an 80 CSL convoy outside the church! :-D

Wouldn't that be something for the her scrapbook, might even get a blessing for the convoy, might not be Papal :supz: note no 'Y', but beggars can't be choosers.:hahaha:

[niall1]

LOL on all the comments.

Once we know what the final plan is I'm sure I'll figure something out..
