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.

Were You a Member of the Old Forum?

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

You say it is an apartment - so [as always] my advice is to talk to your neighbours, and see who they recommend. Best bet is to get 2 or 3 quotes - but don't automatically choose the cheapest.

It also depends how good yout ½ûÂþÌìÌà is - if you are looking for a position where you only need English, its probably not worth looking. However - Google 'English speaking jobs in Milan' and you get things likehttp://www.jobsinmilan.com/

I think you need to give us a bit more info, if you want some real suggestions. Things like;-

  • when you say you'll take 9 days, are you hoping to stop for a day or two in places that interest you [if so, what is of interest], or are you intending to do say 100 miles a day [to give an afternoon/morning at a location] and do overnight stops all the way
  • Route - I think you need to flesh it out a bit, so people get a feel for where you think you want to go

Suggestion - get some detailed road atlases if you want to avoid motorways [I bought some through Amazon] Hope this helps
