Cross country to euro tunnel. Got here early. Forgot Rommel the dogs pet passport. Major Melvin smoothed it over with nice lady at check in. Said something went through looking like a shed on wheels so know we are not alone.

Just hitting the Dartford tunnel, hope the M2 is clearing up. Salfords Finest

Now have 2 choices, Chunnel at 16:00 or Dover ferry at 14:00 !!
