Last day, just a short run up to Calais and then the Eurotunnel home. I visited the Auchan hypermarket at St Omer and bought a few essentials.

Enough money had been taken off me by Italian and French tolls so I decided to take the D (Departmental) roads back to Calais to go toll free.

I stopped in a layby to empty the water tank in a bid to get the weight down as I planned to blow the last of my Euro’s at Calais on beer and bubbly 🙂

A quick visit to Leader Price in Calais to buy some ballast for the van was followed by a run to the Eurotunnel check in, I was well over two hours early but decided to chance my luck.

I managed to get the 18:20 swapped to 16:36 for no charge, a good result!

Unfortunately a train had got stuck in the tunnel so we had to wait nearly an hour for it to be extracted. Can’t complain, I was still back an hour early 🙂
So… 3,185 miles later I’ve had enough of travelling and its time to head to the Little Elms for a few pints…
