the queues, this is dover. i am here with my family, we are going to germany to see my parents for the first time in two years i am an nhs nurse, i am work in school immunisations in london. we thought this would be an early start to the easter holidays. you can see it has come to a standstill, it has been for awhile. i told my parents we are not going to be there before the evening. it s probably true but i know dover has nice places and also has good little guesthouses. so we ve got food enough. anyway, we are still in a good mood but dover is not moving at the moment. there s matthias being probably a lot perkier than what some of the other drivers are. and it is notjust cars and passengers, it is freight as well. the channel route is a major trade hotspot for crossings for trade between the uk and europe. 0ne hgv business told me this morning they are expecting 15 hours of queues for some of their drivers
