I took the other half on a day trip to Nice. We took the early flight out of Luton and came back on the night flight. A great day out and not wildly expensive.
Looking at doing a booze run soon. Well, a top down blast, why not fill up with some booze run. Was going to go this weekend, but obviously with bank holidays the pricing was sky high.
Yes, I've done this a few times. I'm only half an hour from the tunnel, so with a judicious bit of timing I can be driving on the wrong side of the road in little over an hour!
Went on a Lotus run aiming for Reims and back in a day (yes, really). Got stuck in a French truckers strike, the car went pop, came home on an AA truck.
