Oh, I am being sensible. The wish to get home is really just a sham. Camilla Send a noteboard - 18/04/2010 10:53:46 AM
Enjoy Wome.


It is enjoyable. And warm.

I am sure you can find yourself a nice little café which serves both coffee and red wine.


I have found many. And ice cream. Lots of ice cream.

And, you know, you can stand in the middle of the road and yell at Tor, and nobody would think it out of the ordinary.


I don't want to yell at Tor.

and they have buildings.


So does Edinburgh

oh, and... well. Maybe a train to calais, crossing the channel, and then hitch-hiking to edinburgh?


Yes. At the moment it looks like we'll have to go via Geneve and then TGV to Paris and then Eurostar, and that will be some £1000. Which makes me think of the shitloads of good wine we could get for that.

Board-er Patrol, arrest that woman! AgentOrange - 18/04/2010 10:34:49 AM 724 Views
There are worse places to be stuck than Rome Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:40:29 AM 568 Views
Tim said you were stuck in Rome. I wasn't sure if you were there or Norway. Alas. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:39:55 AM 613 Views

Nope. Not in Europe anyway. I suspect Lesotho might be too far to go to get it. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:43:31 AM 561 Views
You are really not being very sensible here. jh - 18/04/2010 10:48:34 AM 593 Views

Can you even get Eurostar tickets anymore? Legolas - 18/04/2010 12:53:52 PM 565 Views
Yes. There are tickets on all trains on Tuesday. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:49 PM 555 Views

Not so fast. The dirty French have told him he's not allowed to rescue people. Tim - 18/04/2010 03:43:52 PM 566 Views

SNCF says about 1/3 of train drivers are striking, but there are extra international services. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:24:57 PM 248 Views
I had never heard of such a thing. What a fun idea!! Tashmere - 18/04/2010 03:54:15 PM 530 Views
It seems there may be hope for people in Calais after all! (Daily Mash link) Tim - 19/04/2010 09:32:42 AM 607 Views
Excellent! *NM* Camilla - 20/04/2010 07:11:13 AM 222 Views

If you can get to Amsterdam, there are ferries to Newcastle. Spriteling - 18/04/2010 11:37:41 AM 692 Views
And if you get to Newcastle, I'll pick you up if I can get the car from my sister in St Andrews. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 11:40:08 AM 222 Views
That is beginning to sound tempting. *NM* Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:04 PM 247 Views
Just saw your blog update about the bus to Germany. Are you definitely doing that? *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:16:23 PM 234 Views
Nothing is difinitive yet, but it looks like that is our best option. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:19:00 PM 513 Views
Oooh. I didn't know that. That sounds like it might be more sensible than Eurostar. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:10:33 PM 556 Views
Here is the website for the ferry: Spriteling - 18/04/2010 04:27:30 PM 876 Views
There is no room, sadly. It would have been a good idea. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:35:41 PM 554 Views
There appear to be luxury cabins for £242. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 07:05:41 PM 233 Views

Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Tim - 18/04/2010 04:38:54 PM 1644 Views
Re: Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:41:44 PM 555 Views
It's nothing to do with the card you pay with. Travel insurance is a freebie with the Advance A/c. Tim - 18/04/2010 04:50:08 PM 2187 Views
oooh Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:52:15 PM 528 Views

Unless there are further eruptions. Tim - 18/04/2010 07:02:27 PM 546 Views

There's a volcano named Katla? That's awesome. Legolas - 18/04/2010 08:24:59 PM 580 Views
Well, typically, the name would refer to the dragon. jh - 18/04/2010 08:30:03 PM 488 Views
It's under a huge glacier. We really don't want it to erupt. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 10:05:52 PM 238 Views
