Lokeren Away Plans

Just wondering who is going to Lokeren, where people are staying and where we are meeting on Thursday to get the party started.

 

I'm hopefully there! Can't get too excited until I've got the confirmation from the travel co. And I've got a little matter of a night in London after QPR!

 

Ferry from Dover, staying in Ghent, meeting at the stadium for kick off.

 

Holiday inn on the outskirts. Got some customers just outside Ghent that we are going to visit whilst we're there. Two birds one stone.

 

Hull to Zeebrugge ferry booked. Hotel in Ghent under review. Pre match drinks I am guessing on Markt area of Lokeren. Match tickets to arrange (fingers crossed n all that)
Hope the train back to Ghent after the match is not going to be a problem seating wise.

 

Snap. Wednesday + Thursday nights. Noticed it's next to an IKEA, Could be uncomfortably cramped going home if the wife spots anything.

 

Im on the Wednesday night Hull - Zeebrugge but staying in Brugge

 

Thursday driving Dover 1200 ferry to Dunkirk, reserved Ibis centrum St Baafs, train to Markt in Lokeran. £110 for ferry, £74.00 twin room and £80 fuel. I'm quite happy with that.

 

Wednesday night boat to Zeebee , no hotels booked yet but looking like Ghent Thursday , Antwerp Friday , Saturday boat home .

 

Just booked on a 29 seater plane like the film stars do! UTT

 

When the tickets go on sale on Friday is it a case of first come first served at the ticket office or an application form and ballot?

 

You'll meet me then.
I'll check out your Sledmere Fusilier credentials. I was one.

 

Are you looking for a quiet crossing? or a pre-game party on the ferry

 

IKEA is not near the Holiday Inn, but there a big DIY shop near (Brico Planet) & A.A. GHENT new football arena (Ghelamco)

tell your wife that IKEA is on the exit Flanders EXPO near E40 (next to large office building)

 

trains at night time from LOK to GHENT are pretty empty (10% filled)

 

Brugge... boring at night

 

Coming across from Nurnberg the night before, should arrive early on the morning of the match. Then going to the first pub I find haha

 

What....All you can eat at Ribs n Beer plus Bierbrasserie Cambrinus with over 400 different beers to choose... I can't remember Brugge being boring!

 

We're driving down to Maidenhead Wednesday night, staying over in a hotel, then getting an early ferry crossing from Dover to Calais, head up to to Lokeren, we have a hotel booked in Lokeren for the night with breaky, head to the market area and get on the beers! Head back home Friday via Dover.

For those that are still looking for a hotel there is one room available at a hotel in Lokeren, but don't know how long it will be available for.. http://booking.com/3df425a6a6cf4dd
