I went to Guernsey for two weeks this summer (used the ferry to get there though) so can advise on that, did a day trip to Jersey from Guernsey which was great, and went to the nearby islands of Herm and Sark. Couldn’t fit Alderney in on this occasion.

Pick a weather window, not a date - cracking area to explore

All the Channel Islands are a bit special for sure!....Just that Jersey has more shopping opportunities for the Mrs!

Works both ways. If you book far enough in advance, flights to and from Liverpool can be had really cheap.
Get em booked and make the most of the fare.

Indeed, even Fri evening and back on Sunday late afternoon is far cheaper than Dublin. Looking forward to it!!!

Zero VAT helps Paul!
Mind you I've been getting pre-booked flights from Bristol to Glasgow/Edinburgh for under £25 for quite a while now which is also outstanding value.
.....Still Nothing like getting somewhere under your own steam though!
