Nightmare at tunnel checkin.

[REC]

Allow a good length of time. They are having problems with computer system and barriers. Been in the queue for nearly an hour?!! Lights go green then cars queue and the lights turn red......people chopping and changing from one queue to another, and getting very angry...

Thanks for the warning. I hope they get the spanners out by Thursday, we're due on the 22:20.

Don't believe their site then.

Definitely don't believe it. The computer systems all crashed apparently...they are catching up now but everyone is unsure which train they will get! Feel sorry for the workers they were manually lifting barriers even when the computer was back online. And now they are putting us on an hour earlier than booked...so bonus. No questions about gas/ dairy etc.

Not at present. The decision by government to stop imports from Germany does not apply to N. Ireland. That is a matter for the N. Ireland executive.
However, since The UK government allowed N. Ireland to remain in the EU single market, we will be dictated to by Brussels, unless the Rep of Ireland decides unilaterally to stop EU imports. Even then N. Ireland could be required to act on EU policy with no recourse to refuse as N. Ireland has no representation or voting rights.
