Madness at #Dover again - some sort of IT glitch apparently - approach road was coned off just as we arrived at the roundabout. On the plus side got to drive past #Dovercastle which was packed for an event -must be awful for the local people with gridlocks. People already here at the port waiting 3hrs-PortOfDover on birdsite saying its 30 min wait haha! -not not clear why they don’t reopen #Ramsgate and the old #Hoverport-mad to have one gateway at the shortest sea crossing to Europe -oh dear..
