silvershark44 Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 How come you are all dropping out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Ouch thatsa a bit harsh, what were their reasons? Have you posted that your ticket is for sale on the Modball forum? All outstanding payments have to be cleared by 15th March remember, so after that it means you'll have lost your money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell them to stop being big girls!!! For the nights that aren't catered for I'm going camping cheap as chips! Fuel costs split between 3 of you won't be that much either! If your dropping out can you send any sponsorship you have got my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flukey-lukey Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Just advertise on the Modball forumthat you have 2 spare seats if people are willing to split fuel costs. Or just do it on your own...I'll be your friend if you can't find any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flukey-lukey Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Just in interest mate how much would the cost (approx) be? If you don’t mind. The cost to join was £295 per person (minimum 2 man team) which includes 3 out of 5 nights at hotels in the various locations and all inbound and outbound ferry crossing...oh yeh and the entertainment every night add to that your fuel costs for approx 2600 miles of fast driving, food, drink , speeding fines, repairs if needed and a few nights in a hotel/camping Not cheap, but should be lots of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only option you have is to buy from someone like Paul who may want out and get the name changed on the ticket. minimum 3 per team I think (they changed it when they realised too many 2 man teams were joining.
