E-Mail from Paul:
60th Anniversary of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights bus journey to Paris.
1. The bus, an ex-London Routemaster all cleaned and refurbished, will be leaving London on the 6th of December. The ferry is booked for 9.45am from Dover, which means leaving London at 5.30am from the Embankment at Blackfriars, nearest tube station is Blackfriars on the Circle and District lines handy for all main line stations.
2. It is 180 miles from Calais to Paris, the bus maximum speed is 40mph therefore the journey time is 4.5 hours depending on traffic. There will be at least 2 half hour stops.
3. Arrangements are in hand to stay at Citea Magny le Hongre self catering apartments which have 3 bedrooms to sleep up to 8 people. These apartments are quite spacious with kitchen, living area etc and can be viewed on: Citea Magny Le Hongre . The price per person for 5 nights is £75.00 which is just £15 per night, and Disney Land is close by!
4. There is rough accommodation on board the bus by way of camp beds for 3 to 4 on the upper deck (there are curtains for the windows). I have known people to sleep quite comfortably on the 2 long seats on the lower deck. So anyone wishing to sleep on the bus please let me know and bring a sleeping bag and some extra warm covers because it will be cold in Paris this time of year. The bus central heating only works when the engine is running so there will be no central heating when the bus is parked for the night.
5. The bus will be parked near to the apartments so that all the usual services will be available for those sleeping on the bus. No snorers please.
6. On the 7th December it is the actual 60th Anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights, we understand that there will be a very large crowd at Notre Dame, so we will be driving there for the day.
7. The following day there is another big rally at the Eiffel Tower which we will be attending.
8. On the 9th there will be a day when you can enjoy the sights, sounds and food of Paris, and to do some Christmas shopping.
9. On the 10th. We all go to the Unesco building where selected delegates have a chance to speak to the General Council and to put points about the UK's violations of those rights guaranteed by the Declaration.
10. The bus returns on the 11th December to catch the 9.15pm ferry at Calais.
11. The bus has facilities for charging mobile phones and running electric razors. There is also a small gas stove for making tea and coffee etc. Please do not use the gas stove while the bus is in motion.
12. If there are any smokers please do not smoke on the bus, there are no ashtrays and I have spent many hours cleaning the inside of the bus, other non-smoking passengers may object.
