Eurotunnel is heaving

[chaser]

Had a very easy run down, two hours early for tunnel, every motorhome parking space is full, and I mean there is more than one in some ,never seen anything like it.
Havnt got an earlier train but the one we are booked on is allegedly on time

Virtually the same last Friday when we came across, us and 4 vans in front ended up on the next train.

We are also in the car park !! Though it's showing a one hour delay for high sided vehicles !!
Time for a coffee and then a bit of duty free methinks

The bright yellow one with the funster wheel cover?

Just picked up yet another bottle of Stolicha vodka - got to subsidise the trip somehow now there aren't any frequent traveller wallets!!

We did too . it might have been us that were one of the other motorhome . 6.20 am

 

[chaser]

We have been called now, the sign said hour delay but now we are half an hour early.

 

[MisterB]

But the curse of the dreaded queue around the next bend has caught us up, it's worse than Disney at times, just when you think you're making progress and nearly there, you go around the bend and realise just how far back in the queue you are!!

Wasn’t too bad 04:00 Saturday.

All the Silver Surfers heading off now the sprogs have gone back to School.

I've just come off the DFDS Newhaven website to book a crossing between now and 13th Sept and almost all of the crossings are booked up except the less popular midnight departures and the desirable 10 a.m. sailings but the 10 a.m. slots are now around £305 one way. Normally (out of the first wrinkly migration rush) the crossings are between about £90 and £160 (less 20% for me as I'm over 60 ............................).

We have been called now, the sign said hour delay but now we are half an hour early.

Have a great trip chaser and let us know where you end up.

Bon Voyage!

We're on !! Assuming you're still waiting to move, if so 'BEHIND YOU' as they say in the pantomime...

Wasn't going to say we were going till I could put on, guess where we are , but the amount of vans waiting at the tunnel really took me by surprise, and thought I had to share.
