Just had a email from M&P, maybe some use to others.

This link takes you direct to Brittany Ferry Site, where they have the offer.

Might be worth getting a few of us together and having a trip considering how low the cost is

I'm game, if anyone else is.

yeah maybe,

But whats this?

* Minimum of two adults travelling together.

Does that mean you need to take a pillion?

Didnt see that, but would presume your right, probebly pillion must be taken, will ring them now and find out for sure. BRB.

Yep yur right Jonny.

However, riders on their own can also go, but they will still have to pay the £35, which is still over 50% off the regular prices apparently.

Dunno if this info helps, pulled it off the website.

Booking dates between 1st October & 20th October 2006.

Travel is valid between 2nd October - 23rd December 2006.

These fares are valid for stays of up to 24 hours in France and provided both the outward and return journeys are completed as specified on the ticket.

Just looked on http://www.ferrysavers.co.uk and you can get return ferry crossing Dover/Calais for £35 nearly all year round, Does not seem to be that much of a bargain.

But look how far Dover is away Chris

Dover-Calais is cheap because it's a short crossing - but it's a 4-5 hour drive from here to Dover.

The catch with this deal is that you're only allowed onshore in France for 29 hours and you inevitably take an overnight ferry which means you have to book a cabin, which costs more on top of the deal price.

Still not a bad price all in though.
