** UPDATED ** Baccy Mini-Cruise 15th Oct ... Meeting up details

Well folks ... tomorrow is the mini-cruise so had better do some arranging for meeting up. Ship sails at 18.30 so text or phone me when it sails. l'll then tell you where we are and you can come over and introduce yourselves. Don't leave it too late to get in touch as all mobile signals will be lost when we are out to sea. After we've met each other we can then go and have dinner or whatever and then meet up at a later time for a few drinkies etc.

Note, it seems the onboard shop has a new policy of when you purchase spirits and wine you have to collect them in the morning. They already do this for beer. One assumes that they think this will get more sales at the bar :) They sometimes search you for alcohol prior to boarding too. Rest is up to you :)



Shop does sell tobacco but has limited stock so if you are buying from there ... get there early! You non-smokers that are only buying alcohol there is usually no problem.

So, our number .... 07586334281


(Note to any UKBA onboard ... give us a call, come over and introduce yourselves ... we don't bite ... well, maybe Justine does but l recall that's only when she's making love ... or so l've heard ... allegedly. No point in you UKBA being all alone if your bosses have told you to come on the cruise. Your bosses take a great deal of interest in our site doncha know? ... they told our lawyers such. Hope you get all your drinks on expenses!!!! Be generous now!)


Update


Forgot to mention that the largest fair in the UK is on at the moment in Hull. lt's located near the KC Stadium at West Park ... and is called 'Hull Fair' :) lt's open from midday so if you want to have a look round, get to Hull a bit earlier and have a gander.

  7. Hope it all goes well. Envious at not being part of the gang this time. But will be enjoying the rugby - a small consolation.
    Bon Voyage !

  8. Parking is at the ferry terminal itself and only 100yds from the terminal check-in itself. Will cost you 10 quid for the 2 days.
    Dont know about internet but probably not and if there is it'll be expensive cos it'll be satellite l'd think.

  10. Parking is £12 for the 2 days, make sure you have plenty of coins as the card reader on the machines nearly always dont work.
    Internet is available in the bar on deck 6, like said is satalite and very expensive,£5 for 30 mins.
    Sorry i wont be on the trip due to a christening :( but have fun guys.

    That is appalling value. Stena line offers free intrawebz throughout the ship (although it can be 'dial up' speed in the cabins IME).

  12. a fiver to post a blog out isn't too bad though, we have to make these little sacrifices sometimes eh...though we Brits seem to pay through the nose for everything.
    Thanks for the info people!

  13. Nomine, I'd guess they do a 3 hour-for-₤7 type pass too, they do on the Hull-Rotterdam ferry.

  14. It's all a lot more chilled than flying. And unlike planes, they do let you go outside for a fag.

    On an entirely unrelated note, your bathroom ventilator top comes off easily, and becomes a very effective industrial strength extractor. A sign points out that the smoke detector in the cabin can be triggered by shower steam, so the bathroom door should be kept closed. When showering, that is.

    Bring a euro adaptor, and also a short extension 4-way for phone chargers and kettle etc. The socket is high up the wall.

    Do.do. DooooOOOOO...come on and join the conga...

"In the eyes of the Tribunal the review letter contained several preconceptions, prejudgments and non-sequiturs"

"the absurdity of this reason is demonstrated by simply stating it"

"We therefore find that Mr Sked misdirected himself as to the Policy in carrying out the review and his decision is therefore one that no reasonable review officer could have arrived at."

... commonly known here at N2D as 'Skeds' ... that is to say these are Judges comments regarding UKBA Review Officer Ian Sked's reasons for rejecting peoples appeals against seizures.
