“I’m very happy. I thought I was jinxed because I accidentally booked this as Dover to Calais. I have no idea how that happened but I’ve had a bit of luck now.”The office worker told The Sun: “I booked this ferry this morning. The cases had been creeping up for a few days and I had to get out. It became too much of a risk. I’ve been on a break out there.“It seems more organised which is good. It does feel a bit like a great escape out of here.
“I hope it doesn’t affect us as we’re just driving through France and staying inside the camper van.” The Foreign Office travel advice for France will change. It will advise against all “non- essential” travel to our neighbour — but it will mean that those due to head there on holiday will be able to claim their cash back.
