    Where to start? This morning went pretty much exactly like my rant on here the last time.

    Did they shut Roundhill Tunnel again? Idiots. Can't blame The French for that.

    I don't see the awfully unreliable Eurotunnel getting enough blame ever for this.

    They've effectively banned/stopped taking coaches in the last few weeks by pricing them out. So they all head for Dover now. Same for all of the Eastern European mini-bus vans (and that's still a lot of traffic. despite Brexit). It's almost as if they only want to take freight and cars.

    They've been beset by problems all week. Always happens when the heat climbs up. One tourist train an hour if lucky rather than two. They were running four an hour pre pandemic.

    Plus their rolling stock appears to be terribly maintained, with trains often leaving with space because, "vehicle too heavy". The decks are patched up with 5 bar all over the place. Strip lights out in almost every carriage (if they can't keep on top of the little things...).

    They really are an absolute shit show. Much like The Kent Resilience Forum it would seem.
