We are travelling back from Brittany towards Calais today for a couple of weeks in the U.K. As soon as we got to Rouen at about 14:30, we started to see UK vans heading towards us. We counted about 20 before we got to Boulogne.
Is everybody leaving?

We should have been on the tunnel at midday today (leaving UK). Health glitch made us cancel and now we're very glum watching the snow falling here in Sussex.

Wish we were southbound on the N10 :(

If like a bus service vans were running every ten minutes in both directions and you were traveling in one of those vans you would only see the vans that were traveling in the other direction.

We are flying out with our bikes on 28th but only for a couple of weeks with friends at Los Madriles. Next year though, we will be back down there in the van for a few months.

I could pack up and be off in a whisper the world is my lobster but how could anyone really think that life would be better elsewhere. This is a fantastic time of the year in a fantastic country, bright sun with the occasional snow flurry with spring on the horizon. My son has been with us for a few weeks and is returning to the US tomorrow, even after 10 years away he is still a complete anglophile and enjoys every hour he spends here......we all enjoy holidays but it is always nice to get home.......(y)

Four weeks today, we'll be on the Santander ferry. We'll settle the dog into our pet-friendly cabin, then go to the restaurant to start our trip as we mean to continue. When the weather's like it is today, I just can't wait to get away.

Just follow the birds,head south in winter and north in summer. Clever little things they are.
Unlike our feathered friends we live in houses with central heating, if only birds had the ingenuity of man then I'm sure they would stay put too.:cool:
