We're going to drive if we can borrow a camper van so we can take it in turns to drive / kip and have a loo on board!

As long as you take proper breaks, and leave plenty of time, the drive aint to bad, 99% motorway all the way.

Must admit, with out the sat nav, we always got lost round the antwerp ring road, but other wise not hard at all.

Big downer after having a great day is knowing you have a long drive home.

The coach we got this time is a little smaller (but may well have two of them) so we will have more space than March. We go over 24 hours, and found most had a good sleep on the way and the coach was almost silent on the way back (apart from the snoring from upstairs ! cant think who that was !!!)

For those who live further away, the folkstone truck stop has done us a deal , not only on secure car parking, but also 5 star over nght room, inc brecky, for £35 ish, bargin price !

however you get there , its well worth it, everyone has to go to hamm at least once, its like nothing in the UK at all !!

lol cool! the drive idea was really good until we realised that we'd both be shattered on the way back. we could have gone to stay with my friend in nuremburg but thats about 3 hours away from hamm and plus we'd have to take vivs with us.

ah its not a bad drive.
i done 500 odd there, walked around all day then did the same back...
it is tiring, but the odd stop should do it.
