Guys, ET is currently £89.
Club members will probably get this for just under £90.
or, you can use £22.25 of Tesco clubcard vouchers. (This is why you should have a tesco Credit Card, you get points for all non-Tesco purchases too, double point and this 4 for 1 deal makes it an 8% saving on your Tesco shopping and 4% off non-Tesco, Doh :!: :!: :!: )

I am ready to book. :D

Leave UK on the 08:20 on Friday 14th May.
Return from France on the 21:20 on Monday 17th May, gives time for a bit of super marche shopping on a Tesco credit card too.
Just waiting to hear from Andy about his trip to i-way-world.
Otherwise, can we take a PS3 and do the ring from the safety of a bar?

OR, if you want the Norfolkline ferry, it is just £28 return at the moment.
It takes 90 mins longer than ET and is only about 20KM further up the coast.

Eurotunnel is still £89 return so with club discount that should be £71.

Just need to fine tune times. If i-way-world was incorporated into the Monday itinerary then perhaps a slightly later return.

According to their website i-way-world is in Lyon.
That is 45 miles, about 1 hour directly south of Macon.
Easy to do i-way-world in the morning, and still plenty of time to get back for a midnight tunnel crossing.
I saw we go out on Fri 14th at 8.20am (I think this is what we did last year).
and return on Mon 17th at 23.50pm.

We will still have loads of time for a lunch stop, scenic return route avoiding some highway-robbery-tolls and super-marche shopping too for the shopaholics (not Calais, it might be shut by then, but others should be open????)

there's a big carrefour at Reims just before you rejoin the payage after passing throught the town on the dual carriageway....

I way isn't open until midday.... so you'd be pushing it to get through the tunnell the same day
