Is it just me or is £1.75 for a 14day prediction in the future expensive? I think so, might pay that for a year for online.

Why not use a different site for free?

Any suggestions welcome was looking for tides for next summer, whilst watching the TV with the kids so just playing really. Where's my Reeds (will be looking for the heavy block present causing the tree to list on Sunday)...

The phone tide looks good but my phone might not handle it!

If you are in Jersey then forget Reeds and get a really good Almanac, Bloc Marine's Votre Livre De Bord. It covers from Dover Staits to Gibralter and has tide tables for most ports, even some secondary ones, not to mention decent charts, harbour plans and even a log book and much of it (especially the harbour info) is in English too.

Just to present an alternative...

Is it my imagination or is £0.00 for a seven day prediction from easytide remarkably good value?

Register and you can start the 7 days on any day you choose, therefore if you NEED fourteen days next summer, and you KNOW that the weather will allow your plans to go ahead without alteration, just get two seven day predictions?

Unless I've got it wrong the free prediction is only from the current date, handy for what it is but no use for planning.

I was so flabbergasted at being charged £1.75 for 14 days, never looked at the 7 day option but assume that is half the price as 2 Vvouchers where required for the 14 days. The free option did seem to just be the current day. As for the weather, quite, but it is nice to start looking at where I can go when.

And yes Rich will pop to iron stores for a tide table later today or tomorrow. Halina is in St Helier over Xmas, please say Hi if passing.
