    Booze Cruise

    It's about that time of year again to get stocked up for Christmas. I noticed "Eastenders" is now "under the protection of the French financial authorities and is due to close soon"

    Anyone planning a booze cruise? What's the best place in Calais or surrounding area? Might even stay over the night and make a weekend of it before the weather completly breaks. I seem to remember Le Touquet was ok.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

    Heligoland is still duty free, or the Channel Islands (which I imagine you could get to via car ferry).

    There are a number of other islands or territories which, despite being within the “footprint” of the EU, or being sovereign states of those 25 members of the EU, are not within the tax territory of the EU. They are as follows:

    Faroe Islands and Greenland (which are part of Denmark);
    The Aland Islands (these are part of Finland),
    The overseas departments of France, being Martinique, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Reunion, and St Pierre and Miquelon;
    Busingen and the Isle of Helgoland (these are part of Germany);
    Mount Athos (part of Greece);
    The communes of Livigno and Campione d’Italia (these are part of Italy);
    The Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla (these are part of Spain)
    The Channel Islands and Gibraltar (these are part of the UK).
