On the way at last!

Due to the uncertainty about leaving the EU, and even though there has been an extension to the process, we don't trust politicians further than we can spit, so we decided that I should take Ollie and head on down to Folkstone and from there to France via the tunnel.
If we crash out of Europe, then his pet passport won't be valid any more and we won't be able to leave for about 4 months.
Raychel is staying in the UK for another week or so. 
A bit of a blow today, my driving license expires in September, and so does my IDP, so I will have to come back to renew them.
Currently sat in a pub I found in Britstops, the Tavern at telscombe cliffs
Nice enough place but a little loud for me. Still, free overnight parking!
I will continue my journey in the morning. It's nice not to have to rush.

After a brief stop in Newhaven, we decided to head for a Caravan and Motorhome club site in West Hythe called Daleacres. I checked out the Chunnel crossings, and decided that for a few extra quid, I would wait until the 11.20 crossing so I could have a lie in, sort out Brian (stuff you don't want to know about!!!). Sitting in Brian with a glass of something strong, and having just eaten egg and onion and garlic chips (prepared by my own fair hand). Tomorrow, I will be heading for Folkstone and the Chunnel. Looking forward to some cheap wine and cheese!
