Suze01 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Is that the same location as the last one? It was incredibly busy last time - is it usually like that, like a rugby scrum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Do you have any idea how far the drive would be from Avignon?? I have about 75 or more books (in English) that I could donate. They are far too many and too heavy to send via La Poste. I am guessing you are too far for me to drive to donate them, but I thought I would ask the question.April 21st does allow a good bit of time, but I am afraid the postage would kill me. Bound to be far more than a train ticket or a tank of gasoline.Just thought I might be able to help.Lori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Redman Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 I have been three times and it is becomming more of a scrum. We normally arrive early and visit friends afterwards.I would guess about 550 kilometres from Avignon and at least six hours driving and a return cost including peages and assuming an economical diesel of at least 150 euros. So very nive thought but does not make financial sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
