I tried my best against tough opposition, but team Germany and my strong opponent Peter outmuscled me. Congratulations to the winner fair and square!! Time to get back to the gym and train up my wrist. Really enjoyed the conversations on the journey and appreciate the exciting advice we received for tomorrow morning. Hopefully we will try some grünkohl or herring and sample some local delicacies!! #petervpeter

Feb. 26, 2024, 9:06 p.m. - I (Peter) have been enjoying using my french to get to know the locals of Bourbourg. A pleasant town with excellent amenities and great church. Had to turn down lift to Amiens, but been a crazy day. Spirits riding high. Scran update, bigboss and shawarma have nothing on o'kebab, Dom says 9/10, basically a mega sandwich so sandwich count 6. Kerys says chips are great. We hope Jamie who drove us out of Calais is doing great on his adventure to find a new place, and are looking forward to a great night rest. Lift to Dunkirk secured. #zoeisalegend

Feb. 26, 2024, 1:25 p.m. - hello peter's brother richard, we have a big announcement which is that the men's toilets at dover foot passenger terminal are cracking, peter thought it would be important to mention this
Feb. 26, 2024, 12:29 p.m. - we're at the foot passenger office at dover, we've managed to get over £50 worth of cash from the most generous people to use on our journey, so we're thinking of using this to get on the next sailing as foot passengers, unless we can hitch a ride before, a man in costa coffee heated my rice up in the microwave (thank u love u), peter is conked out on a bench looking somewhat like a corpse, peter has eaten a very mushy banana, one was sadly lost last night, group banana count: 4 i think, dominic did not rate his aldi pain au chocolat

Feb. 25, 2024, 9:47 p.m. - Currently cruising along the M1 (this road just keeps going!) in Mike's magic golf with the wind whistling through the sub par door seals. I (Dominic) would like to add that dinner consisted, along with pb sandwich number two, of a chicken baguette from WHSmith, probably a 5.5/10, the extra .5 the result of the 50% reduced label. Very much looking forward to some horizontal time. Peter agrees sleep would be divine, would be lush to have brain go shush, but he's had cotton eye joe in his head for 2 hours
Feb. 25, 2024, 8:52 p.m. - in the car with mike! my (kerys') dad mark is putting the falafels in the airfryer for our imminent arrival, dominic is on pb sandwich no. 2, peter is craving some cheese and fiddling about with his new camera (banging purchase)

Feeling good but a little peckish (shocking). Scran update - Peter is demolishing McDonald's wrap of the day (sweet chilli chicken) and a chicken mayo. Kerys is about to tuck into a homemade tofu pitta bread with spinach and the ever important crispy chilli oil. I shall be partaking in a bag matured cheese and cucumber sandwich I prepared last night served with a selection of Aldi own branded snacks.
