I'm sure they're just on the limit, the thin line between life and death because there have been some mad accidents there But yeah, proves that health and safety in this country just kills all enjoyment and very OTT.

You should have jumped into the car mate, plenty of room and would have cost you pennies in the long run

@ Ronnie

That's be 2 trailers then

@ Primey

In total for me if I didn't take the route to Denmark to see the bridges, it would have cost me around the Ł900-950 in total. It would have been cheaper believe it or not if I would have towed the car. But it wasn't about that, it was about having as much fun for as little as possible. It sounds like a lot of money, but what you get in return is unbelievable
