So I made it to Calais an hour before check in to find a massive queue at passport control - some kind of staffing problem by the time I got thru I was told I had to wait an hour for the next ferry, this in itself was late and we didn't actually board till 2.45. No matter I had the good fortune to meet Vincent who was from Belgium and touring the south east and maybe the Cotswolds on his rather smart looking Triumph Thruxton with a few addons. Wonderful guy a lone spirit who has seen many parts of the world. We ate lunch together and the sail to Dover went like a snap listening to his tails. Anyway we exchanged emails. All the best Vincent I'd like to take you up on that offer of a beer sometime.
