🌥⛈ Actually any Holiday 2021 / 22 / 23/ 24 / 25

Turns out yesterdays carnage was French caused - they only sent 4 passport stampers to the port of Dover which fucked everything including the Tunnel because no one could get to it

Today they sent 12 so all the booths were manned

Sound like we dodged a massive bullet yesterday

Actually they sent 4 overnight.
The remaining 8 + relief were stuck on Eurostar after some British Engineering broke down

You did. I heard people were being told to prepare for a 7hr wait today l!

I’m genuinely surprised (not) at the faux political outrage and the comments from people who are caught up in this. Did they seriously really not expect something like this to happen? Same also for the airport fiasco. :roll_eyes:

We landed at Krakow.
Amazingly I can use locals passport control - no stamp!
After passport control saw?
A huge pile of luggage so it’s everywhere not just Brexit

Kraków airport needs Security Guards but you need weapons training so not many around.
Wizz & Ryanair still not recruiting locally.
I expect a lot of it is from KLM & Lufthansa maybe LOT where people missed connections

Just sailed through the French side

Will do. Cheers.

OK pitching in.

Off to Melbourne after Christmas, visiting family and friends and enjoying the Oz summer, before a 5 day trip to Tasmania, followed by a few more days in Melbs, then stopping for two nights in Singapore on the way home.

Feels a bit like a weekend away compared to @Goatboy and his mammoth trip. Will also have to offer up my gleaming new season ticket at SMS for a few games too. Should be before the usual decline kicks in though :wink:

(You did say she was giving up work a while ago, right?)
