No, James. We are talking about ferries. Not ryanscare/simplejet

Err... No. I was thinking of recruiting some stunningly attractive Polish blondes who seem to live in every EU country now (except Poland)

Well if we get a ship, and we can have some 'Motorway of the Seas' funding...

We just need a name...

How about PO....

Which stands for...


Joking aside, TFM... The money that we are giving to the EU to fund this damned thing,, you could really start a company from scratch... (Not COULD and SHOULD are two different things).

I have shares in an enterprise and the costs are fantastic, but the revenue isn't- hand outs from eu government? money from heaven (or hell, I suppose)

But the Funding is only for a limited time, to get routes moving, I believe, after a time, it is stopped...

3 years... I didn;t realise it was that long...

LD Lines had a route, Toulouse to Rome, I beleive that had the finding, and a time after they stopped getting funding... bye bye route...

Hmmm.... Did BF get that for PO-SA by any chance?

As you say, it is supposed to be kickstart funding... Not just a bung

So is the peeandoooh chaser...

And this has been avilable (or in discussions) for a few years now


Perhaps the gutless directors of pee and oh no should have applied... APPARENTLY British companies ARE entitled to bid for EU funding... Since it was probably Britain that gave this great monstrosity of socialism its funding in the first place.

Sorry, but the allmighty Diamant isn't interested in ferries + he wants a SSE with floating cranes & complete offshore fleet as well as the game without any bugs & undones.  Hence the SSE will be released in June or at any time after that, even in 2011 which is much better.  :thumbs:

For any of the 'professionally-offended' this is only a good humoured response to an alegedly good humoured comment about my own spelling. It is in NO WAY intended to offended anyone except the offensive.
