But you can say hello to the frenchies in the marina office who took the mick out of me last time i turned up with passport, insurance and so on "Look at this nuttter!- he's brought lots of documents to an office in france - at 12.30 just before lunch! haha!" so i went back at 4pm.

Have fun.

Good idea! Then they won't bother with giving you the menu. It will be perfectly ok if you nip in to the restaurant, scoff a whole load of bread, and then decide not to stay after all.

Why didn't you just take some money like everyone else?

"Ji suis Ecosse"? - really depends whether the Scots rugby team kicked holes out of the French last time out - check the result and then proceed at your own discretion. I'm in Spain this weekend (working for once), but have a good crossing.

Never bothered going to the office last time except for a shower. A nice young lady in a dory pointed us to any vacant visitor berth, took a small amount of cash and then we went ashore for dinner. End of formalities.

That\'s the EU for you....

! watched England v Denmark in a bar in Campeltown last year. The bar was full of Danes - extraordinary!

The EU's free market for labour is working.
