Sharing a formula 1/etap is as cheap as camping if there is two of you..... You don't want to be camping in Font in winter. Or maybe i am just getting old.  ::)

186 euros for the two of us in formule1, that's near enough 180 quid!

Go on the pull each evening and find a suitable local lady to 'look after' you?



On second thoughts, as it's you, you might just want to try the Formula1 option.

Andi you're a young skint student. What every young skint student does is goes and doss's out in the forest, when you wake up your olive oil has frozen solid and you get hypothermia. Then in a few years time when you are on the corporate ladder comfortable in your middle management role you drive down in your mondeo company car and spend most of the time drinking wine and eating too well with the odd quick boulder session, and then in the evening you can sit around the log-burner in the gite and remember fondly that time you came and it was so cold when you woke up in the morning your olive oil was solid. Just the same as everybody else, how wacky...

Just came across this pic of Nik in the forest, back in the day, as he doss's [sic] out.  Looks like he's blowing on his drink to defrost it too.

Most students seem to have way more disposable cash than me. Or rather, they spend as if they do.  :greed:

Fuck camping / dossing in January.

Jasper dossing is good enough for Andi, he's just going there to spend a few days moping around caught up in a whirlwind of teen angst, the misery of dossing will probably add to the experience for him.

GCW fuck off, as if I'd drink Special Brew, Tennants Super only for me, I do have standards don't you know...

Andi, don't mind Nik and Jas.  They are just old, bitter and twisted by the fact that students nowadays get given handouts left right and centre, sponging off decent taxpayers, burning cats, smashing wingmirrors, moping about, getting out of bed at 5pm, moaning how hard done by they are, wanting an easy time in a nice warm gite without having to pay their way, getting bailed out by their parents or the government and generally being a bit unwashed.

How are you getting there?  You could always doss in your car, which of course someone else bought you and pays the bills for.

Get a job and you'll afford a nice warm gite :lol:
