You better not pass out, or I might be tempted to steal your boots and tell you, that you've been so drunk that you must have lost them somewhere, @neph93 .

You mean @Finn666

@Madame:

other places are the Gosport Premier Inn (5-10 mins from us by car/taxi)

The bus service between the Premier Inn and the Gosport high street isn't bad, either.  And I would recommend the full English breakfast for anyone considering staying there…

[Giles]

But, why would you want to go to Gosport High Street (unless you are going to Emmas @UnTucked ? )

[Chris]

It's the closest bus stop to IHUK, isn't it?

Besides, who can pass up the bargains to be had in Gosport's pound shops?

[Giles]

To be up there with the in crowd, you need to be going to the 99P shops….

I'll gladly lead an evening expedition to Emma's lol

A little over a year ago, I was trying to plan a trip to the UK for this past autumn, with a stop in Gosport, of course. Those plans never came to fruition. So, I was hoping to try again, this year. This event has put me all-in.

Being one who doesn't particularly care for abrupt departures( I always prefer to delay the inevitable ), I decided a Monday departure was more to my liking. While the Spring Garden Guest House was sold out, the Spring Garden Holiday Apartments had the 3 day stay I was looking for available. I locked in my reservation two weeks ago.

Tonight, I was able to get a price to my liking on a round trip flight with British Airways. O'hare to Heathrow and back for $550.  Economy standard, no less. Which means, I can check a bag. Considering, I could easily get by with carry-on allowances, I'll be able to bring along some local brews. @neph93 , consider that blonde stout a done deal.

I do have a couple of details to iron out. My passport expired, this past August. But, that is a fairly easy fix. I'm also deliberating a rental car, as a bundle with the flight would only add around $100 to the tab. Buses, trains, and ferries would do, but the costs would be fairly similar, and I'd be at their mercies. If there is any reason I should avoid a rental, I'd love to hear it.

As it stands, I'll be busting my Gos Vegas cherry, this September. Please, be gentle.

You want a reason to avoid a car? That’s an easy one: The Brits drive on the wrong side of the road.

Rent a car.  You may be arriving/departing at the same or similar time to others, so you may be able to share the costs….

And GREAT, that you are making it.....

[louisbosco]

i rented one for the kanreki and i'll do it again.. depends on what you wanna do and how long you're gonna be there for. but i rather decide my own travel time than be at the mercy of a time table. plus i love driving so it can't get any worse..
