Looks great Matt, really looking forward to it, will we have time to walk around the towns?

Those towns look like they'd be great for sound effects as 20 odd Maser's roar through the narrow streets.

Better pre-warn the locals to get some ear plugs for when we're there!

No need; they are well used to the sound of German artillery so they'll soon get used to the Italian version.

How will they have heard anything when they were 20 miles away heading in the opposite direction? Cheese eating surrender monkeys!

Ok, it appears you have had the cheeky answers, here is the the sensible one, you decide if you have time:

Day one:

Meet 7am at burger bar on top of Portsdown Hill:

Ferry port for 8am, leaves at 9am

Ferry arrives in Cherbourg at 1pm, lunch booked in Anse du Brick 15 mins up the road, where I have eaten before and has a stunning beach.

Awake at 9am with the mother of all hangovers, the distant sound of Damo redecorating his room, to have breakfast and get on the road by noon.

Nor me Phil, having to go buy some flowers for the lovely Sophie, the hotel owner to apologise for Damo, only to hear the maid come running into reception shouting "un autre...un autre!"

Cheers MAV!

Lol Mav pushing poor Nancy's trolley dolley with puke all over it and asking Chris if he could drive his car to Le Mans :D An expensive night for both of them! I'm not sure Chris was in any fitter state than John to drive considering he collapsed a few times and fell out of bed about 5 !!!

Damo looked like a combination of Boiled cr4p and a w4nk that lived that morning ha ha !

He looked worse on the walk to the car park
