Recently we took advantage of a deal being done by the
Majestic France wine store where by if you pre-order a certain value of wine
they will provide either an additional discount or free travel on a ferry or
the train to get you to their store. And since the price of the wines is about
half that of the same wine in the UK, we decided to nip across the channel for a
day trip. We were very lucky with the weather as it was a beautiful day with
temperatures around the 28C mark. At Sangatte, a short distance from Coquelles
on the coast, the long, sandy, beach was almost empty and we could stroll along
in peace and quiet watching the ferries sailing between France and the UK. He
two were tall cliffs that mirrored those we could see at Dover in the distance.
It was at Sangatte that we had booked into Le Blanc Nez restaurant for lovely lunch.
We then stocked up on our goodies and trundled back home. If things change with
regards to the impact of Brexit we might not be able to do this again so
easily, or so cheaply.
