Left sunny Northampton in my trusty steed (Tired old truck) and headed off to join the chaos on our fantastic motorway network. The usual three and a half hour journey to Dover took five hours plus a break (It's a legal thing to do with driving trucks. Fat old lorry drivers bladders need to be emptied every 4 1/2 hours or they will explode). P&O ferries were kind enough to let me park on board one of their beautiful ships and enjoy a scrumptious meal....... Then off the other side and into French France to find somewhere to park for the night.
