Brittany ferries booking moved yet again

[Mr porky]

Well we have moved our booking again.
We had a booking to France on the 27th dec but this is now a booking to Spain on the 21st jan.
I think I’m just fooling myself but hey ho.
Will i just end up constantly moving this booking through the year.

 

[bobandjanie]

It's nice to have something to look forward to. Bob.

 

[Jim]

January might be tight. March/April you might stand a chance, I fear in Jan we'll be back to just our 30 minutes a day exercise (or trips to Barnard Castle).

 

[Vic]

Everyone needs a hobby.

 

[Badknee]

Ours is on the 31st of March. I hope they put it back ‘cos it’s Santander to Portsmouth.

I think you're being optimistic, Mr porky , but I hope you'll prove me wrong .

I'm pinning my hopes on Easter .

 

[Robert Clark]

Best of luck with getting to Spain Mr porky
My guess is that borders won’t open to tourists until March

If you don’t have something planned to look forward to then what’s the point anymore ?
I say good on you , better to be optimistic then fed up all the time

Sorry. I live near Barnard Castle and we are building a border with help from a guy called Cummings who knows about these things.

Interesting. May I ask a question. We have a flexi booking but I have already moved it once. Does anyone know if there are unlimited changes with these or can you change as much as you like?

Who has the construction contract will it be
billy bodge it and his lad slip shod

 

[Robert Clark]

On the assumption that demand for Eurotunnel will surge when travel restrictions are lifted I've just booked for early March.
Frequent Traveller spots are limited so are likely to sell out fast

As many times as you like. This booking has been moved 3 times now

Great Thank you. We are booked for end of April so I am being mega cautious I know.....but already considering moving it to October

 

[Nasher]

Hmm..... I noticed that in this thread, that people are posting their proposed departure dates that there is the day and month, but no-one has posted which year - why is that

I have a ferry booking for the isle of man (TT races) for the 28th May 2022
It was originally booked on the 20th May 2019!!! (only 3 years, 1 week and 1 day in advance)

If we all go to Barnard Castle on the same weekend to test our eyes is that a rally?

We will if it goes ahead. Seriously considering Barbados as a second option. First time in over 10 years we will spend January in the uk.

But will they seriously consider you as a welcome guest especially as a second option, I would get all huffy and say sod off

Peel campsite (booked in June 2019 & paid for in Feb 2020)

I would prefer the Sefton or Welbeck, but very difficult to get booked in....

I think the Welbeck will be gone before next TT. Don't know if you know but its sold STC and won't be a hotel in its new guise

If you are looking for Homestay let me know (or anyone else)

Funnily enough we have never stayed at Peel campsite (just all the others). We usually wildcamp here and do a bit during TT (we can always go home if we forget the bottleopener!)

Thanks for the info, I'm guessing the Welbeck will become apartments?

During the 70's I would stay in guest houses in Douglas BB&EM

In the 80's it was hotels....

For the 90's/00's I used to stay in the the Sefton, but as the financial service industries grew, the hotel became more of a business hotel, so I changed to the Welbeck

Once retired, I got a moho just for the TT & MGP/Classic to save the hassle of trying to get accommodation (especially as a single) by then most hotels had became apartments.......

Can I ask what & where is the accommodation you offer?

 

[POH]

(or trips to Barnard Castle)

Now now jim

 

[Garry - June]

We have a booking for March but going to move to September.....problem i see is that anytime in spring is going to coincide with vaccine dates...and dont want to miss that..
