Another sunny day, wow you're getting spoilt lately lol, keep up the good work I'm going to binge watch the whole series when it's done, support your local vlogger 👍
What are you like! I did the same tunnel trip as you last year for the 1st time, it's a doddle! 😃. The only difference was that I booked it the day before🤔.
It was just one thing after another. if you have a ticket and are riding through its simple, but if you have to turn around like we did there is obviously nothing set up for that other than taking you back off site onto faster roads away. once we got a ticket it went well... unsurprisingly 🤣
3 months europe with maps....one has to use ones head and eyes.does not mean i did not make mistakes just ended up somewhere i did not plan to go.i was on an adventure.
I don't have a list, however nearly all the campsites i stayed at was pretty good to be fair. Campsites in Europe are mostly very good and well run. They are cheaper on average than in the UK too Any really bad ones i just rode away from, the one in Belgium was probably the worst. I would have probably rode away from that too, but it had been a long day, i was tired and it was late. Its all part of the experience 😉
I thought the tunnel was well marked for coming off the roadway. and if you go to the Peage on the very right you can by a ticket there . May be things have changed. i await the next blog.
Anywhere in France i didn't either, just in the port. The mistake was thinking i could just pay at the toll and sail through. Once we had to turn round in an area not designed for that, the problems started. All worked out eventually.
Not getting a ticket before i arrive was definitely my fault, i don't blame anyone for that. I do say in the video "This is how NOT to do it" I could have edited the video and just shown our second arrival with a ticket, making it look like we sailed straight through in 5 minutes. I messed it up and decided to show the true events as they unfolded.

The sun was great, made the last few days of the trip even more enjoyable.

Good way of looking at it 👍
could have gone by DFDSfrom dunkerk to dover by ferry
The chunnel will be ok next time, i will start on the UK side where i can read the signs 🤣
Any chance of a public list of good campsites? And maybe a list of well dodgy ones?
Where?

It is.
Dunkirk thought it was Calais 🤔
We set off from the campsite at Dunkirk 👍
Full tank of fuel = happy days 😂 why would you not want to come to the UK = free everything for ever 😂
I don't know about free everything 🤣
Can't get out of Europe?? Go to 0 Ostend or Calais jump in a DINGY cross for free. R.N.L.I. will give you a lift😮. Might ask for a donation though.😂
Hahaha true 🤣
o dear, woke up yet?
I woke up in England and it was all just a bad dream 😁
Never had a problem with signage anywhere in France. Get your head out of the sat nav and look where you’re going with your eyes.

You seem to be very quick to blame others for your shortcomings.
