We return to UK Friday, will report back how we get on.

Lunchtime Friday - French Douane playing silly b's on the A16 Belgian > French border !
Down to 1 lane then off at a junction, past a crowd of about 20 uniformed types, round the roundabout and back on Autoroute, tailback of about 45 minutes.
Road into port completely empty, no queues at passport controls or check-in at all. Boats running on time.
The M20 Op Brock is about 12+ miles of 50 limit in the contraflow - followed by many more miles of 50 right up to the M26 junction, they're doing the roadworks for 'smart' motorway. Timing for this is appalling. Luckily I'm not due back there until Summer Classic.
