From our way, you go over the Dartford bridge, about 3 miles round to J2 of the M25, and jump on the M20.

It's then about 15 miles to J4.....Maidstone.

From South Mimms where I live to there (missus lives there) takes me a touch over an hour at a steady 80/85mph.

You could pop in and say hello to Phil, he lives that way . You'll recognise his house - it will be surrounded by razor wire with "Haters keep out" signs all around .
