Thursday and part one of the journey home but before that it
was a day at work. After that we had the
small task of taking a second UK colleague back to the hotel in Luxembourg and
this was done by late afternoon so on the way back to Luxembourg from Esch Sur
Alzette we called in at the big supermarket we went in on Tuesday. But this time there was no shopping for me.
After we dropped our colleague off we set off to Dunkirk a mileage
total just short of 300. It was a fairly
good journey with no real delays. After
the stop we made just after Brussels there was another 100 plus miles. We arrived in Dunkirk at just after 21:00 at
which time it was time to do a little work and then bed.
But before that as this is a short blog then it is time to
look back over this week and the first time I had ever driven in my car
abroad. I suppose I expected it to be
harder, in the past because the steering wheel was on the correct side of the
car it made me realise that it was different.
With me in my own car I expected I would have to concentrate a lot
more. I was surprised this wasn’t the
case. Admittedly most of my journeying
has been done on the motorways but even when I was on the smaller roads this
did not seem too difficult. I am hoping
that I have not spoken too soon as I have to get from here to Calais in the
morning in time for the channel train.
This week’s decision to drive has been justified by the fact that I had
to do work in two separate locations but if I had only Luxembourg to go to then
would I have still driven. I honestly don’t
think I would have done. If I have just to
go to Dunkirk then I will drive without hesitation but not all the way to
Luxembourg.
So with just the final leg to do home tomorrow it is time
for bed.
Night All
