Problems with the Tunnel. Was this recently? We are due to return via the Tunnel on Thursday. I do hope we don't have a repeat of our return journey last year. Because our two cats were with us we didn't use the Ouistreham-Portsmouth crossing but booked to come via the Tunnel. On the motorway approaching the Pont de Normandie we had a puncture. That delayed us for over an hour. When we arrived at the Tunnel in Calais it was to discover that it had been closed because of a fire so we had to wait four hours for a ferry. It took sixteen hours altogether. The cats were very patient and didn't start wailing until we were about two miles from home! Judith, do tell me I'm worrying unnecessarily! David -- David Rance writing from Le Mesnil Villement, Calvados, France A friend of mine has been on cruises in the Med for the last few years, last year he was on one of the Massive cruise ships, (with some up to 4000 pasangers), had a great time on the ship, but excursions........ When they got to Alexandria and were going to the pyramids, they has 53 coaches going there, I dread being somewhere like Valetta henn one of those things berths, and last summer on one day they had 5 cruise ships in at the same time. Hope you have a great time David Hill |
