Re: 2010 MR2OC Euro Tour 5th- 10th August P5 Route done.
Wednesday Night
Would be nice if we can all meet up for an evening, chat a bit, go through a few things, check everybody has everything and socialise. So Sandwich has a plentiful supply of pubs all serving food. If we could meet up at say 7:30pm? At my place then wander into town, 5 mins walk for some food.
Thursday Crossing
Our train departs at 8:20 and we need to be there at 7:50 latest. I suggest we meet up at the Port Early Services (the jct before the tunnel) as we usually do at 7:30....
Sound good to everyone?
Alan; what sort of time are you planning on being down at my place mate?

We're gonna get a travelex card. The rate is favorable and you use it the same as a VISA credit card but you put cash onto it. Will let you know later mate

Re: 2010 MR2OC Euro Tour 5th- 10th August P5 Route done.
A couple of things you should take and do:
- Take a spare set of car keys, and the immobiliser
Take the details of who to contact in an emergency (give these details to one of the other cars)
Put your Passport number in contacts on your mobile phone
If you have travel insurance, put the policy number in contacts on your mobile phone
I think we should pm. each other with our mobile phone numbers now

I thin you've covered it Bob. Michael is taking a large tool chest at the expense of his spare (mad fool) tho there are (3) others so i would hope 4 of us dont get flats!!!

Don't forget to take the locking wheel nuts key
I'm not taking any coolant, if it gets to that stage I would just need lots of water.
