Tuesday 9th December: Dear diary, we left our home, west of Paris, in good heart and with a clear sky. The traffic was gentle and flowed at a steady 80 mph all the way to Calais (200 miles without even a queue of 2 cars). The pretty boat sailed the ocean blue, crossing to Dover in good time. Then shit happened! Landed at Dover at 13:30 - arrived in Crewe (300 miles later) at 19:45. Thats over 6 hours of nose-to-tail traffic jams, closed roads, roadworks, shite weather and general British road shite. And, of course, todays boat to The Isle of Man is cancelled due to lack of interest and a little bit of rain and wind. Bollocks! Why is driving in England getting shittier and shittier every time we pass through? Another few years and its going to just grind to a complete standstill.
