[dentonx]

Hi, to everyone on this forum .
have been a long term member with motorhomefacts for many for many years , but it unfortunately became difficult with new owners .a very good forum destroyed by the Canadians meddling ,I think anyway.so I joined here after hearing good things .and here I am lol, but can you help me and the wife and of course teddy the Yorkshire terrier ,in a crossing with a good price . as prices are really high at the Mo,2 adults senior in our motorhome need to book as early as possible now I fear even higher prices ,quote so far is £178.89 return booking a camper 7metres x 3.4 metre .and a weight of 4600kgs twin wheel that is with DFDS and P&O ferries I tried 2nights ago. and really hope their is someone who knows something we don't ,our crossing is Dover = Calais or Dunkirk ,no matter. thank you again .this is for an august 26th through until 9 September .
I am going to cross my fingers here and prey that you all are a bunch of in the know of all travel to continent by way of ferry knowledge ,
i will post a beer to all who can help us out please.all the very best in all we do

denton, take care all

Welcome to fun.....

Getting across the channel at that time of year is still a few bob, when you next have a look at their prices make sure you have deleted your cookies from your laptop o tablet.... then you'll be a new visitor and get the best prices...

Good luck..

I've just had a look on the Euro tunnel and the best on there for your dates is £186... it's a great way to go over as it doesn't matter what size your motorhome is...

I use P and O. Currently £64 one way plus dog at £15 for MH @ 3m X 7.9m.
Gone up £5 this year DFDS were cheapest but now dearest ferry.
If you use P and O at silly o'clock I recall £46
I noticed you wrote 3.4m height, that's the cause of the increase on P and O, over 3m

Welcome but what took you so long to abandon motorhomefacts? I had enough of living on the dark side a couple of years ago and have not regretted the switch!
We always use the tunnel as it's so much easier with our precious pooch. Got any Tesco Clubcard points you can use?

Hi Denton, welcome, you will find an awful lot of facsters on here, some like me are still members of both, at least till subs run out.
Can't help with ferry prices though, last few weeks of school holidays so always extortionate.

Hello and welcome from West Midlands.

We never book a return. Just one way, pootle about we feel like it, head north when ready and book our return for the next day or two. That way we don't have to worry about where we can go before turning back for a set time/date and it ALL feels like holiday not half.

Thank you again, Scotzsue many thanks . Wyn, nice exercise in travel bidebyour time take stock of this idea you have interesting to say the least . Made for England hi' . I think I will just book and heck with it. Here is a question I probably think is best for another thread elsewhere , but best place for a gas check down here in Pembrokeshire I have the Hymer s700 Mercedes 1998 model . Last time out we had either low gas output or blockage as when gas switched on you could hear it popping loudly back near boiler and fridge , with gas bottles you can never gauge to content of the bottles . It's a pain but I want a good dealership to do job of service . Crosshands in wales above Carmarthen engineer Forman gave a hissy because we had the Hymer , anti German I guess but he was making noise gestures as to Hymer brand . You ever come across this anyone . I guess I talk to much here or perhaps wrong forums lol. Take care I will return conversations in correct forums eventually , really I will when I get the hang of it. Lol

Do start a new thread with this question and a title that mentions Pembrokshire Gas Engineer help or similar.
Good luck.
