Your welcome :)
thats a fair way to travel from portadown!
My dad is from portadown originally :) and we go over a couple of times a year :)
im going to France and Belgium at the weekend. I'm assuming your aware of the new emissions stickers you have to have if your going near certain French cities such as Paris?
If not, iv done a whole article on it under the toad trip section :)
oh and the toll roads too, you need a transponder now for certain toll roads.
Cheers
