Default Just asking

Looking at the map, I was just wondering why we didnt take ferry to Dunkirque? Would it not have avoided roadworks and made the journey shorter? Only asking, mind.

If you were going by ferry why would you mess about with a channel crossing when you could go via Harwich to the Hook of Holland..
And of course if we had used a ferry and it was blowing like a whatsname folk would be saying why didn't we use the tunnel and avoid all this sea sickness and or delays..
But then we're not using a ferry we're using the Shuttle..
Only saying, mind

Oh ye of little faith.Everything will be ok. Do you expect your car to have a hissy fit if you do the same distance over here? So why should we have problems?We will be the most reliable cars in Holland, believe me. And don’t worry, there is enough of us to push anyone.....................to the side of the road, and leave them.
