Cadwell???? or Assen?

It looks to be around double the price to go from Harwich to the Hook, compared to Dover-Calais.

Whether it will cost more or less by the time you've done all the driving.

It's 250kms from Hoek van Holland - Assen (2hr 30m)*

It's 500kms from Calais - Assen (4hr 45m)*

*from www.viamichelin.com

The advantage of going Dover-Calais is that the sailing times are about every hour and a half, whereas the Harwich-Hoek sails 4 times a day (the latest on Sunday is too early, so then you're looking at an overnighter, or sailing Monday) Plus it's a shed load longer on a nasty boat.

H-H was £220 roughly
D-C was £110 roughly SEAFRANCE
D-C was £60 + £10 fuel charge!!! with P&O (why not call it £70?)

Whether its gunna cost £110 - £160 extra in fuel is doubtful (500kms = 20 gallons @ £3 gallon???) dunno what's a gallon of juice in Europe? it's about £4.20 here.

P&O quote thingy, based on a 6.5 metre motorhome...

OK, thinking out aloud...

...it looks like an extra £50 to take the trailer (for option 2) or an extra £60 to take the van (for option 3) plus a shed load fo fuel...

...Chass, what do you think about it all, coz it be your vehicles?

I'm thinking at most we want to take the trailer, with Max's bike, otherwise its all gunna cost a silly fortune with 2 vehicles.
