Fúck that, that would take forever.

An hour to the tunnel, 30 minutes to Calais, 9 hours from Calais, bosh. Almost as quick as flying, door to door. And no Easyjet!

No, it's only 700 miles. Knock it off overnight.

You have to remember that you are no longer in your 20s, don't take drugs anymore and are customarily tucked up in bo-bo by 9pm.

Meh. Driving is still my natural condition.

Audiobook until Lyon, then once through the city and safely onto the Autoroute du Soleil, start blasting some music for the final 3 hour push.

Anyway, this is my next audiobook purchase. Quite excited for it. Not sure if it's quite what you're looking for, though.

I can't believe people have bankrolled and made a film about an Indian fellow having his life shaped by Bruce Springsteen. There's something very wrong with a world in which that can happen. :-(
