Thanks Steve, I will be coming over from England as an Ambassador from Glorious Devon and to prove it, I have a pass which lets me cross the Tamar Bridge back to Devon for free!

The Cornish are very, very clever. They let you in without paying but charge you £1.50 to leave if you are in a car!

But who gets the money? The Cornish? ?
You have to pay to go over the bridge into south Wales from Bristol and it's not the Welsh or the English that get the money it's the French ! Not a bridge I'd use twice I use the M50 it may work out longer some times but hey I keep my money in the UK

Sorry Steve but you could have a problem getting helpers then as some of us are involved with the Engish Heritage's national "Heritage Open Days" events. I have organised the event for the Robey Trust and if don't turn a certain member who is prone to running things over with a Tandem Roller may just decide to do the same with my BMW !! Please note, we are friends but I keep my distance when he is driving.
