Anyone planning to go and when?

Lee argyle · 24 May 2018, 20:22

We’ll be heading over sometime this season , love to join you early August, cross fingers the weather is good for Alderney week. Last one there buys the beer? Lol

My plan "A" is to go over on the Thursday or Friday (depending on the weather). No plans for the return trip as yet - I'll see what others are doing.

My A plan is also to go Thursday 9th or Friday 10th and come back on Sunday or when others are returning something to agree on. Will book accommodation on Jersey.
Don't have a B plan as yet

We’ll be leaving Wednesday with another boat from Poole. If there is anyone else who would like to join us then we’d be very happy to meet up. Returning Sunday. We’ll camp at the excellent site but I know some will want a real bed.

Paul Cannell · 26 May 2018, 20:12

We're planning on going, trying unsuccessfully to book a house for 4>6 people.

Andre · 29 May 2018, 13:49

Plan A is to leave on Thursday 9th August and return on Sunday 12 August
I will be heading for Jersey via Alderney. Accomodation already booked in Jersey for 3 nights

Hopefully some ribs will be travelling on Thursday as it makes sense to travel in company

If anybody wants a lift to Alderney there and back please let me know. so far just me on board.

Plan B. I will fly to Jersey as I must be there on those dates. I will make final decision on 7 or 8 August

Paul Cannell · 30 May 2018, 18:40

We should be going over on August 4th & returning 12th as we have a 3 bed property booked.

whisper · 24 June 2018, 18:40

Sadly we won’t be going this year but will hopefully be back for 2019

Paul, What time will you be planning to leave Alderney on Sunday 12 August.

Andre · 18 July 2018, 08:01

Just to bring this thread back up again as a reminder. Anybody else leaving the Solent area on Thursday 9th August. Just about 3 weeks to go . Let's hope the weather holds.

We are pleased to announce that we now have proper petrol facilities here on Alderney.
Those of you who have fuelled here in the past will be aware that the previous method was far from ideal.
We now have a full tank with hose reel and pump.

Regards,

Mainbrayce Ltd.

Fantastic! But I won’t deny having a little jiggle at the quay was fun

Andre · 21 July 2018, 20:43

That is great news for those who need petrol. I will top up but with diesel[emoji106]

How much is diesel and petrol

Anyone else heading to Alderney on Thursday 9 th

Andre · 26 July 2018, 16:07

Gosh 878 views and it looks like I will be heading there solo (two on board and Mrs A is flying)but coming back with Paul Cannell. Good to have a twin set up

still hoping to hear from Trevor G

Would have loved to join, but will sadly be out sailing at that point instead! Might well see you in passing though as we go through the Channel Islands on the way to Ile de Batz.

If the weather stays like this going by RIB will be the far better option!

Andre' We have to leave the rental house @10:00, keeping an open mind & flexible on return time, could also stay until Monday if weather is bad.

Chris should also be returning to Poole on Sunday

Andre · 29 July 2018, 18:10

All pending weather conditions but should be by 11 on Sunday in Alderney. I will call you as we leave Jersey Sunday morning
