Tonight we're heading off to France we're gonna go down to France and do
48-hour trip it's gonna be like Mission Impossible 48 hours, don't laugh down to
Folkstone, cross the channel, Calais down to Brittany to a friend's house
He's just so old, so we're gonna fill the van with his stuff to bring it
back. Back to Calais, we're gonna stay in Calais overnight and then Tuesday
morning back through the channel all the way back to Wales. No Melissa isn't going
she doesn't want to be stuck in a van with two grumpy old men.
Anyway let's go un deux trois quatre
Well here we are. Look at those dodgy geezers over there they all
look suspicious at night. Do we need the passports here? We have to
check-in
There's a woman talking. Look at all these closed French
passport control offices
Have we missed it you reckon? Is that a question? I don't know? 22:49 I
think we've, I think we've missed it. Right we're at, we are at the Eurotunnel
depot and we've got a nice two hours to spend in the cold.
We're off, not the ferry, it is the train.
Normally there's someone to say goodbye to me.
Hey, the sun's coming up at last.
it's um definitely some lighter skies
over there. There's IKEA, that's why we've been on the road for 13 hours to
see the French IKEA right yeah well worth it just for the company the
scintillating conversation. Hey it's not agreeing with where you're going
local knowledge. 16 hours we're nearly there
nearly there, not quite there. We do have the 15th wonder, it's the fully
automated turkey farm. An automated turkey farm? okay do they do guided tours
probably busy this time of year so 16 hours to get here was it worth it
no I don't think so. Spooky barn and did we get everything in. I think so look at
that look at that stacking, talk about American Pickers well we're
heading back to Calais and it's got wet and suddenly got a very very cold so
let's go. Where are we now, Bayeux Tapestry area.
By here, Bayeux, by here over by here tapestry. Only two point eight
miles to go. It's saying six minutes there
We're in one piece just about Don't know about the van there's a mysterious
light on it
Thank god for that we've made it. Back to the hotel, well, the first time at
the hotel so, see you tomorrow. Excuse the groaning. Well hello it's the
last day, it's quarter past nine and we're heading back to the UK
but first important Calais wine shopping.
We're back home back in the UK you can tell
the land of
disappointment, grey sky, the grey skies.
