Thursday 13 October - Au Revoir

Yes, time to leave France and catch the ferry back to England. Its about 140 kill-o-miles from the site and again all trollway. On route we telephoned the Camping & Caravan Club (CCC) bookings to get the best deal for a ferry to find out they had all gone up about £100 from the night before - note to self, always book at least 24 hours before sailing. Anyway, got the 1:30pm P&O for £195 which gets us into Dover at 2:15pm BST. Excellent lunch on the ferry, they really do good food on these ferries at reasonable prices.

I always smile when we arrive at Dover thinking about the scene in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves when Robin (Kevin Costner) and friend (Morgan Freeman) arrive in Dover and Robin says "tonight we supper at my fathers table in York" as they set of walking. Love the way Americans write history.

Tonight's pitch is a CCC at Canterbury for £13. They only had grass however so good job its dry.
