 Ok, like last time here's the times I will be using for my trip. Leaving on the 9am boat allows up 2 hours to get there. The ferry will take 1 hour but as we know from last time off loading a big ferry takes some time and we have atleast 35mins driving through traffic.
I went for a 8:30pm ferry so I could stay at the campsite till about 7:50pm which I would expect it to starting to get dark. Dont forget you loose about 30mins+ a month of light hours so instead of sunset being 9:11pm like it is today it will probably be around 8pm on the 15th My guess anyway from a 7minute sunset time loss every week.

 Cheers for putting up the times Dave.

I will book the same ferry later today.

Once we have the route notes I'll make some Tomtom files and make a points of interest for it as well. Hopefully I will get the afternoon down hill section correct as I seem to remember a few of us skipping a section.   lol

 Hi Arron, Yes, we'll be heading back on the Sunday. Looks like I need to go back and edit that post! We've had a lot of "aways" recently, so it looks like it's just going to me from Kernow this time Oh well, really looking forward to seeing everyone all the same

PS: None too sure that you'll recognise me when you see me next time! I'm down 3 stone since t he MMM in April! cheesey.png

 Yay! Welcome on board Redwhitecooper and Trowbridge - this is goona be fab!


Queries:
Ferries will not be busy that time of year - end of school hols. Always good to book in advance - but will probably be ok to ring day  before if you need to leave it that late!

Pay when you get there for camping - but ring to book in so thay can get idea of numbers - they will probably do us a special deal like last year - just quote Mini club! shades.png

 Camping booked this morning. Minijo, just a reminder, the first post asks us not to book with the site - you might need to update that one

 Not so much a matter of being brave - jut finding the time!

I'm easily swayed so for now, it's a strong "probably"
