Justina and I are on route to Europe for an unplanned road trip. We were up at 4.30 this morning and were meant to catch the 8:00 NorfolkLine ferry from Dover. There are big queues into Dover port (roadwork signs, queues, no sign of the actual roadworks!) and then lorry jamming confusion surrounding Seafrance cancelling all their ferries due to strike action, resulting in a ton of Seafrance customer lorriesvwith nowhere to go and nothing to do but jam up the port – we, and other cars, missed our ferry. I’ve always liked Norfolkline, they were helpful and moved us to the 10:00 ferry free of charge. So glad we did not book with Seafrance, or P&O (whose 6.35 ferry has still not left yet(!). All we have to do now is sit here and wait. Dover is in abit of a mess this morning.
