@GBNEWS “The FCDO shared that on October 16, 2023, two people were killed and one seriously injured in a terrorism-related shooting incident in Brussels.
In 2022, a police officer was killed and another injured in a suspected terrorist incident in Brussels.”

@POferriesupdate I guess three hours between sailing is quite unusual also. We’re now completely on the other side of Calais Port.

@POferriesupdate … how P&O deal with those distressed by having missed their sailing needs improvement

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate I called Dover customer services and they couldn’t help at all. It’s not P&O’s fault that Border Force took an hour to get us through but… 1/2

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate A DFDS staff member helped as nobody from P&O came. The next sailing is in THREE HOURS.

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate So 1550 is gone but nobody to tell me where to go!

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@STIBMIVB Seriously?

@RevRichardColes Don't shave?

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate Are queues likely to be long with Border Force strikes?

@POferriesupdate Nope. 1354 and still onboard.

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate And we’ve been overtaken by the Spirit of Britain - the boat I booked that left Calais after us. Can things get any worse?

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate Tell the captain to put his foot on it, can you? This was meant to be a special day out 🥹

[Catherine Simmons @adolphemax]

@POferriesupdate So it’s a 2-hour sailing not 90 minutes?
