Allan, that system isn’t in yet, we always use the Eurotunnel, we get the passports stamped on the way out and stamped when returning to the UK. We didn’t have any delays the stamping took about 2 mins, thank goodness.

I have to say at the Eurotunnel in Ashford they are busy building enourmous sheds that, I assume, are where the finger printing etc will take place. I did read that the system for finger printing might not be brought in this year, but who knows with the EU what they will do.
