That's normally the case for me on the classic but this is the first time I've done the normal 24hrs since 2004 and I'm not travelling with a bunch of older cars so can leave a little later biggrin

I should be passing in a loud, yellow Spitfire about 9:30. Travelling solo this year so please, no photos of me running around the car and back again to pay the toll smile

IS it? Tried that last year as passenger had one - don't know if it was just how low the car is, or how steep the windscreen is vs. modern cars but usually involved us coming to a stop and my passenger waving the tag around the windscreen till it managed to trigger.

I jump off the Autoroute at Abbeville anyway, so only the one toll booth to deal with.

Ah if it's only one then it's not worth it, I've had spitfires I don't remember the windscreens being odd..

The rest of the car mind wink

Nothing odd about them, by '70s standards. All I know is we cruised up to the barrier with the tag up behind the mirror, got closer and closer, until we had to stop and my passenger started waving it around to get it to open. He'd used it a few weeks before in his modern without issue so I put it down to another case of modern technology being incompatible with classic cars - like the Eurotunnel number plate reader that's NEVER understood my black/silver plates smile

Hi Cyril,

For the first time ever, we are not going to be coming through on Thursday, so no Jaggy McJaaaagface, no Cerbera, Griff etc.... weeping

We'll be coming through on Wednesday in an attempt to have a more relaxing weekend!! hehe

But it seems Jaggy won't be there as he's, er, died!!! frown

It won't been the same (I think we've done 23 consecutive trips on the Thursday) but times change!!!

More drinking time!! beer

Sorry to miss you - I hope others will wave in our place! wavey

Great idea! We’ll be in a large, light blue 1989 Mercedes S500, reg number F645GNW

To all PHers: it’ll be for sale if anyone fancies an incredibly well looked aftered, low mileage old Merc!
