Hey,

Today I have received, directly from Pontins, the receipts of all (2) the payments done for the event. Now I would like to book/buy bus tickets (London-Pontins-2PM) now, if possible. How can I book and pre-pay 4 tckts for this trip pls? HELP ME, so that we will have everything in place before travelling in March.

The hallowed BLOC welcome letter will contain all the info you'll need to register for BLOC online, and how to book seats on the bus.

It has been held up by a technical issue with the registration page. we want to make sure this thing works properly before you fill it in.

we are hoping to send them all out this week...

only one departure from London to Norwich with the BLOC shuttle?
it's too early for me, because of the flight...

then what is the cheapest way to come from Luton airport or London center : coaches, trains (is Virgin really cheap?), carpooling ?

cheers

hi,

there seem to be regular national express buses from london victoria to the area (try norwich or great yarmouth on http://www.nationalexpress.com/) but don't know how you get to BLOC from there... maybe give pontins a call to check (http://www.pontins.com/centres/hemsby/h ... ind_us.php is not very useful either)

don't know if there are any trains close - usually trains are quite expensive in uk.

cheers

You can get the 1, 1A or 1B bus from Great Yarmouth to Hemsby.

Here is the link to the timetable on First Buses website - link. This one is for Mondays or Fridays so do another search if you need Saturday/Sunday times.

You'll want to get on at Great Yarmouth, Market Gates and get off at Hemsby, Kingsway Shops. The Kingsway Shops are directly opposite Beach Road where Pontins is located so it's super easy to find from there. Handy eh?
