Take care at Cite Europe.
There have been recent reports of U.K. vans being targeted by illegals trying to stow away.
Might be best to stop a few km away from the channel.
It appears to have got worse recently.

Any idea when weā€™ll hear about the LFT taking over from PCR?

We used Expertmedical last Saturday, excellent service. Not interested if they were on the government approved list or not. Code accepted for entry back into the UK.
Tests waiting for us on our return after being delivered by DPD and posted through our letterbox

I assumed that because Expert Medicals were no longer on the official list that they could not be used, this is apparently wrong, which is good as they are the cheapest by a large margin.

Expert Medicals weā€™re removed from the official government list due to a huge number of complaints and negative reviews.
From the number of Funsters posts recently it seems they finally got their act together.

One of the reasons was they advertised at Ā£28 but then added Ā£7 delivery at checkout which they have now dropped.

I have grave doubts whether many or even any of these 2 day PCR tests are laboratory checked or analysed for new variants which was/is the experts' justification for them (and their cost).
Nobody checks you even do them. Still got our expert medical tests from last trip, we will use the code again for this trip

Your grave doubts amount to a 95% certainty according to released statistics(y)

Used Expert Medicals. Kits came a few days apart about a week after ordering so now sat at home waiting for our return from France. We'll see how the Day 2 testing goes and report back eventually.

Talking about statistics. I would love to know how many cases have been discovered this way , preferably sorted by means of transport.
