    You want the details? I'll forward you the email.
    You're booked down as having a place unless you've
    already told him otherwise...

    Someone else mentioned it here, so I now know.
    Well, I can't go, so that's that, really.

    There will be two extra places available from us too :eek:(( What with the
    purchase of the new R1, and other somewhat expensive things planned, it
    means that we are now without the funds allocated for the French Run :eek:(

    Have fun all.

    Nice to see common courtesy is alive and well in Yorkshire.

    TOG isn't reading here at the moment, I'd suggest you e-mail him so he
    knows and can sort things out with the hotel.

    It's not that expensive you know, average just over 100 notes per head.
    Never understood how those who can claim to afford new bikes barely seem
    able to afford a tank of fuel for it.

    See, if you done accountancy, instead of law, you'd understand. Tchoh!

  14. This must be why Des never shows up: he can't afford it.

    Because it's £100 each, plus whatever you spend on beer and food, plus
    petrol. The £200 'cheap' weekend away, soon becomes £500. Especially as
    they'd be taking 2 bikes.

    Damn I must be doing something wrong as the last trip didn't cost me
    anywhere near £250.

    And that's with a single room.

    £500 indeed.

    From up north they'll fill up 3 or 4 times just getting to the ferry
    port.

    2 bikes x 4 fuel stops x £10 = £80
    x2 trips.. = £160

    Fuel in france... maybe another £40 each... so that's £200 already..

    + £100 each to cover the hotel, meals, etc..

    That's now £400...

    And I guess there would be a night in a UK hotel to add to the list as
    getting to Dover would be a day's trip in itself.

    £500 ain't far off.
