@ Gloster That kinda makes sense now. I'm getting my Calais and Boulogne mixed up.
So thinking back again, I would have caught a Turbo from GdN to Boulogne Hoverport then 33 minutes
later up the ramp at Folkestone then into town for a few light ales.
Just had a quick rummage through the old mind palace and I am sure the France Vacances pass did
cover the train to the Hoverport, because I can remember walking to GdN from GdL - train strike - with
two birds and they were going back to Blighty too but had to buy tickets and ended up missing the train,
or it could have been something I'd said and they were just avoiding me...
A lot of wine has been downed since then so the memory gets a touch hazy at times.
@ Taunton Cheers fellah, that's most helpful. Shall have a peruse later today.
@ CheshireScot That rings a bell...first train out from Calais Ville to Paris was around 6am.
Did that walk through the docks on numerous occasions up until the birth of E*, although one
time I hadn't taken into account a timetable change and ended up winging to Spain via Lille Flandres.
All part of the fun though.
@ ALL thanks for putting me straight on a few things.
