I am pretty sure Meezermum did some laning in France and had an absolute blast! I would have to cost it all out before I could commit.

I have been considering posting a weeks do on the Isle of Man for some time (since Tom's do last September in fact). The reason I say a week is because of the ferry cost. Easier to make it a weeks holiday with 3 days laning thrown in, however I believe the rules over there are slightly different to the UK. I did send an email to the IOM gov earlier this year and got a detailed reply on where you can and can't go and the rules on their PROW. Will see if I still have it
Traffic lights in London are just rough guidelines

You are right ste about the permits but not hard to get by all accounts I was thinking about making it a family event where we do 3 days off roading and the rest of the time socializing and spending time with the family/sight seeing etc.... Maybe Germany could be option as we have people off the forum on the inside

I'm liking the sound of this. Laura said she might come too as long as there's somewhere 'solid' to sleep (women and camping ) Oh and I gotta try and price it up too, but I like the sound of international travel
If it ain't broke, fix it before it does!! You know it will!!

There are no driveable green lanes in germany though there are several play sites, nodoubt JOEH will correct me on this.
Here good reports on France though,maybe French Farmer could give us an insite (haven't seen him on here in a while though)
