Adinkerke just over the Belgian border about 1/2 hour drive north, past dunkerque keep going.
Far cheaper then France

we're going in March too, go quite often to stock up on the wine.
Who are you going with?

The family, staying in Canterbury for a few days, and driving over via eurotunnel (courtesy of tesco vouchers)

I wasn't being nosey, as in WHO are you going with but merely asking how you were getting there.
But thanks for the answer. We drive down from Cheshire so usually leave early hours
Are you staying over there or is it a day trip i.e. do you need accomodation?

Hi
Just been reading another thread about the calais run, about the french customs apparently confiscating cigs off people if they buy from Belgium. I didn't know about this
Have you heard about this?
