I think the groups now exist [at least - when I go to the 'make a new post' section, there they are, in the "Audience" section] Hope someone uses them soon - after all the time its taken

Questions Asked
Anyone used the Harwich to Hook of Holland ferry service? I'm hoping to drive down to the holiday home later this year, and was thinking of using the service.
By chance I went on the old Forum yesterday - found that someone had PM'ed me from that forum only a few days ago. I hadn't got any notification of a PM, but obviously the old Forum PM system still works It might be worth doing the odd visit
Hopefully they may start flights to the North soon ? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8630455.stm
what else can one say?http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1232160/Italian-police-manage-write-15
I can't beleive that its 17+ hours since the last post - or has my PC taken over and hidden everything?

This route is an amalgam of ones I’ve tried in the past, when I had the time available [it will probably add at least 2 or 3 hours, and possibly more, to the normal journey time.] Usually, when crossing Switzerland I do the motorway route [Mulhouse - nip into Germany for the “Basle Bye Pass” – then Lucerne – St Gotthard Tunnel – Italy], but for a really scenic route, I would suggest the following options Motorways as far as Lucerne, then a few km after passing Lucerne take the A8 towards Sarnen and Lungern. Off onto a minor road to Meitingen and then up the Grimselpass [on the 6-11 road] to Gletsch. At Gletsch you then have the option of either;- Left [my preferred option] - [on the 19 road] to the Furka Pass and on the St Gotthard Pass [great views and a coffee shop at the top] and onto the motorway to Milan passing Lugano, or Right - [again on the 19 road] to Brig [Interesting drive – but you miss the panoramic views on the other option], through the Simplon Pass and onto the motorway near Domodosola and thus on to the motorway [passing Lake Maggiore on your left] to Milan or Genova. Hope this helps
have you looked at

You'll find lots of info here. For example, if you do a search on driving to Italy you'll find lots of advice on the various routes to take. Interesting blog
You could try sending coseperlacasa a PM - he seems to have a van that does the trip now and again. Also jagodog says [in a previous posting] that he will be driving from Sardinia to UK at the end of Oct and returning in Nov. He has a transit size van

Got one from 'her' yesterday - blocked sender and deleted message
"i can only do 350 miles on a tank of diesel and this doesn't include towing i have a few Jerry cans but it doesn't seem to be a realistic option ..........As i would need over 10 cans to get to Italy." But if you take the Luxembourg - Besancon - Aosta route I detailed above, and filled the tank at the service station just before you leave Luxembourg - you'd only need to get about an extra 100 - 200 miles worth of Diesel [5 to 10 gallons max - 2x5 gallon Jerry cans] even allowing for towing Or am I missing something?
