Hello Roger,

Does anybody know of a firm doing regular trips to Cite Europe (Calais),
via the Euroshuttle from London or the Croydon area (or perhaps regularly
from Ashford?).

I realise that a car trip is the best way, but I've never bothered to take
my driving test, so that is out of the question. I would prefer the
shuttle to the ferry, because it is quicker, but the ferry could be a last
resort. The only other way is getting the Eurostar to Paris to do some
shopping, but that is rather extreme :-)

I know Stagecoach East London do shopping trips about twice a month but
you have to pre-book them. I keep thinking about doing it just for a
day out although I find the convenience of a car over there very handy
for doing a big shop. Pity I don't have a car these days - perhaps we
could hire one, I'll drive :-)
