Just checking through my documents for the trip as i needed to let Sea France know my car reg. Due to it being a company car and working for a car dealer they get sold all the time, true to form mine got sold last week. While doing this i noticed i have booked to come back at 14.40 on the sunday not the 14.40 on the monday that i had planned! anyway i managed to change it so panic over!

Lucky spot! I did something similar with virgin trains, cost me £100 for the privilege. To this day I blame the scroll wheel in the mouse!

I looked for ticket prices online a week before a trip and it was £11. I then booked it on the same site a few days later and it had gone up to £57! I guessed the advance ticket was no longer available, so as my employer was paying I booked it anyway. When I got to the station and got the tickets from the machine I realised I'd bought 3 tickets and it had actually only gone up to £19. Just before I booked the tickets I'd looked at ticket prices for a different trip for 3 of us. I guess I didn't clear the number of travellers.

I've just submitted the expense claim - I wonder if anyone will notice?

at least it would've been a quiet crossing
