Can't get bugger all out of Red Funnel.

I was gonna buy several.....help other's out etc, but I cant be doing chasing them for the money. So this year I looked after No1!

Ticket done and dusted. Im gonna get the fast cat. Cheap as chips!

[russellelly]

I'll be booking the FastCat from Portsmouth nearer the time, probably using Clubcard vouchers. Leaving it for now as we may be staying on the island a bit longer than the festival, but still need to plan it all. Couldn't be doing with driving on the island at all - walking along the pier trying to carry your backpack and get it on the bus is all part of the fun!

I've booked from Lymington. Have no idea if that's sensible as it goes to Yarmouth and haven't a clue if that's near Newport or not. It's nearer my brother where we'll be staying the night before, so yup, tickets and ferry done.

Yarmouth is 10 miles from Newport ish I travel it most days to work takes about 15/20 mins on a good day and about 30 on a bad LOL

and theres just one road until you get to Newport and then its all sign posted anyways

I've booked 8.15 Thurs from Lymington as foot passenger only. As it's a quieter port, will there be buses? Sorry to be so blonde

no idea about buses..should be though.

If it's 8.15 am you'll be there early enough to have mine & loulou's unenviable task of trying to save enough space for everyone's tents!! Have fun

[greenfairy43]

It's far too early isn't it I'm sure you will be there to help

[misseatalot]

Better early than late. Not so sure I'll be there to help....

[lukehawkins]

Is it a matter of booking the tickets for the boats ASAP?? Or will it be alright to wait till the big event is closer?? Worried bout the boats being full and needing to fish out the old inflatable and ores out the garage and taking matters into my own hands!

[Andrew_iow]

depends if youa re being a car or if you a foot passenger

for the lymington service I can't be 100% sure but I think the new larger ferries should be running by next June
