    :eek: We packed the day before and thought we were organised :rotfl: Very pleased with ourselves as we had ten nights away from home and travelled with hand luggage only. I roll rather than fold and it's amazing how much you can fit in. Also managed to squeeze in 3 large Yankee Candles on the way home :T

    One word, respect. Have just booked extra luggage for my return trip in few weeks time. :o

    Why does he not just change colleges then? They will have only just started so he probably has not missed anything.

    Thanks a lot. I had that idea in the back of my mind but thought it would not be possible . have now talked to ds3 and am going to ring pwllheli college ononday and ask them. If it does not work out I can blame you :p;)

    I must say the charge and how to pay is very clearly sign posted.
    I have never had a fine as have a motability tax disc but mum set up an account and grandchildren know to send her the car reg if they change cars. There could well be times when son has to go that way so I suggest setting up a toll account anyway. You have to put £10 in and can set to replenish funds when needed.

    Not sure about the fine but could well be possible he has been let off as first offence especially as car registered up north.
    Sure there must be a toll charge forum somewhere.
    Sorry I couldn't be more help. Maybe juju will know.

    Congrats to Di on her wonderful news.:j:j:j
    Tried to post earlier but mse kept saying not 10 words when post was about 50:mad:

    I see now answered x

    yes I thought it must be well sign posted - I know that it is as you go towards the Birmingham toll road
    also looking at the website it seems to say if you pay within 24 hours of going through you won't be fined - if I'd read this correctly.
    If errant son had made it clear he had gone via the Dartford tunnel but he hadn't know wether or how to pay tolls we could have gone online and figured it out.
    as you say he might have been treated leniently because of his northern address
    and he did the right thing ringing them up firstly - I would have just have paid up - so that conversation saved him a lot of money.
