Meldrews' - Wipers in September - Part 2

It's a little disappointing that with 37 members of the Meldrew's that we have only managed to get 5 plus a friend one of of them so come along to the first overseas event since Covid and Brexit.

In the end four of us will be travelling by bike and a couple will be going in the car.  

We had originally booked a twin and a triple room and earlier today we booked the quadruple bedded room and dropped the other two rooms. So now we have 4 beds and 4 people!

It also works out cheaper per head for the hotel and it includes breakfast, which is rare for that kind of price. 

The Gasthof 't Zweerd is right in the centre of Ypres and walking distance to the Menen Gate for the evening Last Post Ceremony and is right where all the bars and restaurants are situated.  Parking should be right outside!  

Next we need to decide what ferry we will get. I expect we will go P&O from Dover to Calais and then have a run across country to Ypres. The TomTom shows us going along the motorways but it is nicer off those even if the are free.

Hopefully Cal can get us a cheaper crossing with F&F being an ex-P&O staff member.... ;)
