Me and the wife are going on this!
The Grand Turk set to sail from Folkestone Harbour!
The Grand Turk is probably best-known in Britain for her role in the 'Hornblower' and other films and television series. The ship has been a regular visitor to ports in Kent in the past, but this visit to Folkestone will offer one of very few occasions when people can get frist-hand experience by going out ot sea aboard this replica of am eighteenth century Royal Navy frigate.
A choice of morning or afternoon sailings will be offered on each of three days, Morning sailings will depart at 10:30 and afternoon sailings will depart at 2:30
Ticket prices for a three hour trip from Folkestone Harbour will be £45.00 for adults and £25.00 for children, or £120.00 for a family ticket family (2adults and 2children), and must be booked in advance through the Folkestone Visitor Centre on tel: 01303 258594 or email discoverfolkestone@btconnect.com
UPDATE: Don't email, they can't do anything online. You must collect the tickets from the visitor centre between 10am and 5pm today or Saturday (and I suspect they close for lunch) but they were very helpful to me and dropped them round my house because I couldn't make it, bless!
Looking forward to this a lot.

Still no joy from the little computer, so not seen the last episodes of Lost yet. Connected Clare's PSP up to the computer for the very first time yesterday, and converted the episodes to the right format (with thanks to this how to from Engadget) and all is looking good!
Busy long weekend lined up, we're off to Number 10 tomorrow for a bit of a look round, then some sort of eating and drinking shenanigans on Saturday, and then going on a piratey Hornblower adventure on the high seas on Sunday, which we're rightly looking forward to.
Got lots of offers of work coming in at the moment, that's a good thing! If only any of the monies being offered were up to scratch I'd be laughing.
Happy Birthday Dad! That's the third time I've posted that here, must mean this vanity website has been running for over three years, blimey. Ah yes 8th May was the anniversary...
