Calais

Made it to Calais, eventually (with one stop for food and engine aeration). Briefly detained by the authorities at Dover, following a misunderstanding about what rally we were participating in. Ferry was delayed anyway, due to rough seas. Gave us the opportunity to talk to some other Ramshacklers, and compare cars.

Registered at the fairly dismal Australian Bar and Grill, where two of my (MG) cards were refused. Saw a load of other tea,s there, and some fantastic cars (and one or er, weaker ones.) Cost us 18 Euros to get there, though it's barely 3 miles away. Let's get out of France, chaps. It'll stop Al from whinging about those cab fares, if nothing else.

Rally starts in earnest tomorrow, so we're hoping the car stands up as well as it did today. No wi-fi here, so no more pics today.

Tomorrow, Rugger Chugger heads for Switzerland. Wish us luck.

GoA.
