Waffle as much as you like. Passed through Denton today, heading to Folkestone. Another enjoyable video.

That mini roundabout with no junctions is part of the calming measures on that road I believe.

👍

Feeling nostalgic watching this vid. I used to live in the UK and had taken that route a number of times, while going home for holiday or road tripping across the continent. I like how the ferry staff guide the cars into correct lanes, so that upon the arrival you disembark on the appropriate side of the road depending on your destination. I remember the A16 between Calais, Dunkerque and Belgium border being bit challenging to drive, due to heavy freight traffic and frequent junctions, also the whole area is very industralized and not very pleasant overall. The town of Dunkerque however is perfectly nice and I often made a stop ther to stock up on French wine and cold meats.

👍🏻 Made it 😂

A very pleasant driving..

This is the easiest test route i've seen in my entire life

What about continuing the A25 adventure with dorking to Guildford

I’ve come across that cat’s eyes sign myself many times and said the same thing lol

No it wasn't the old Faversham. It was and still is the village of Ospringe. Other than that thank you.

I’ve been in the back of ambulances many times too also with my dickie heart

Had my driving test in folkestone today and passed with 4 minors. Just want to say your videos are top quality! Thank you :D

Was that on a Sunday as dorking looks dead quiet there, that’s my home town too

very nice epic trip

ive been told you do not stop at those little island crossing things not sure what the yare called but its at @20:45 ish you only stop for people if its a proper crossing and the reasoning behind this is because if they are on the middle island thing they are safe while a crossing doesnt have the island so you have to stop for them

@ 2.20 you mentioned a 15 minute drive. No, not even if the road is clear and one ignores the speed limit! Perhaps 20-25 is more normal. Longer when behind a driver who ignores the speed limit and sticks to 30mph (there are some, especially in the winter evenings when it is dark). When it snows the road can become a "white out" with difficulty to see the edge and the start of the fields - but also very beautiful. The area around Challock roundabout (A252) & beyond under the trees is higher up, at over 500ft (150m) elevation, when there is freshly fallen show in the trees it is transformed into a winter wonderland. One evening I almost hit an animal, got the dashcam footage of it darting in front of me, caught in the headlights! I always turn right into Trinity Road, rather than go ahead you getting caught in congestion explains why. (truth time, I have commuted alomg this road M2 - Ashford since 2013, mornings in the direction you are driving, evenings reverse). Gos you were lucky with the traffic, normally much heavier when I'm commuting. Lucky you!

Hi there, here Italy. 🇮🇹 A very relaxing video.I love the countryside of Kent. I was there before.

Straight forward run to Ashford on the A251 and I agree with you regarding the first stretch to Challock. It's made worse because the road is unusually narrow for an A road. Then you have some HGVs daring to go as fast as possible, urgh 😒 The second stretch is much better and pleasing to drive. You could have stopped, paused the video and grabbed a few Chestnuts on the left 🤪🤪

Definitely not a route i have taken before, along those nice country lanes from Lydden to Folkestone. I became more familiar once we arrived at the main road junction, and then continuing past the Garden Centre. Even though the weather was somewhat overcast, it was still a very pleasant drive onwards to Folkestone. Many thanks.

Why do people think others are interested their inane chatter???????

I love the 257 to Canterbury, generally not overly busy. Lots of left/right junctions needing careful attention due to some drivers making risky emerges. There's some dodgy trees 6'30" to 8'00" not happy driving that segment when windy e.g. Storm Bert 🤣 The Abbey on Tudor Travels 🤔 look forward to seeing that 👍🏻

Strictly speaking, minor roads are classed as C and D roads.

30mph limit applies to build-up areas (with street lighting) which yours isn't? So, its a 60🤔

If I recall correctly Kent County Council has the habit of putting certain road marking in red to emphaise their presence to drivers, and remind that the marking is there for a reason - for safety. With all the roadworks on the A299, A251 etc this year I have been using country lanes more than ever, whilst I am OK with the roads all the bends and dips and hidden sights the danger of oncoming traffic worries me, I always use dipped headlights to help others spot my car. Also, the much of the time traffic was busy, with the rollercoaster aspect (fast, slow, stop, fast, slow etc) meant fuel consumption took a hit. My commute is Faversham to Ashford, try the return journey without using the A251 between Challock and Faversham, much more fun!!

My partner is teaching me to drive. We go out most weekends driving all around Kent and East Sussex and fortunately I’ve not killed us all yet!

60mph is the top limit on a country road.

Straight forward drive and hazard free. Best advice with regard 999's, don't contravene any law unless specifically told to do so by the police. Example, driving onto the path or going over the stop line at traffic lights displaying red lights. You could get nicked 😩

At 13:44 they are filling in the marina to allow more vehicle space to handle the increased EU checking process. (Entry/Exit System (EES) checks).

What a lovely garden at the beginning. It must be very nice to live in a peaceful village.

A nice trip although incredibly long, through country lanes of which i have never journeyed personally. Barham i am familiar with, Stodmarsh i am not. At least the weather was favourable. I will find your other videos as soon as i get the time. Many thanks all the same.

Oh no you have just got rid of the squeak and now your clutch!

Hello. Enjoyed watching the video from Folkstone to Dover. Would you do a video driving from faversham to Canterbury please. I prefere B roads rather than Dual carriageway. Thank you

Nice to see you’ve got yourself a chap Tudor. Going to catch up with the rest of your holiday. ❤

That A20 Dover bound can be a nightmare, you were there on a good day. I agree with your comment about the speed restrictions, I was there a few weeks ago (Folkestone bound) and saw the restrictions in operation(Dover bound). Went home via Canterbury to avoid the lines of parked HGV's in lane 1. This road goes up to 500 feet above sea level, at the higher elavation fog (low cloud) can be a problem hence the warnings ... in the past there have been fatal accidents. PS if you had shown the route home I could have popped round for afternoon tea!! (only joking of course!!)

That was a trip getting out of the car park to the main road exit, geez. Tudor, you mentioned towards the end of the drive that the marina was filled in. Would that be the one adjacent to the now gone De Bradleigh Wharf? Agree with your comment about errant drivers, there is many out on the road, it is better to remain calm and be stress free and enjoy your drive, sometimes difficult 🤔

It sounds like a noisy clutch release bearing to me.

👍👍👍

You actually lost me when you entered Swanton Lane and all the way to the 260. I believe the speed limit ought to be lower than the National Speed Limit, 60 mph way to fast in my opinion. Nice drive to Folkestone 👍

Drove some of this today, another enjoyable video.

Hi Tudor in Whitfield there's new bus route starting and be interesting to see a journey from Whitfield to Dover priory via Burgoyne heights which will have some of the new bus traffic on from 17th November so you think you could show us a car journey that's similar to the new bus route

Thanks, Tudor. That's my fix for going to Folkestone this month. I hope to be there in May.

Min bästis bor I stenungsund 😂

I've lived in Thanet for 24 years, I now realise I have yet to visit Reculver. Need to put that right some day, and soon!

⛷️ I thought you were going to add the video of the police asking you to follow them, nevertheless, brilliant compilation (all videos) of your Scandinavian journey. Enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing 👍🏻

Yeah nice colours 👍🏻 🍂

Shame about the sound 😢

Super run Through the lovely village of Barham. Just beginning to get to know it more now, since friends of ours have just moved there, and i wanted to get a better viewing of the travelling when we visit. I usually bypass Barham anyway each week, on enroute to Folkestone. So i am pleased about that. Thank you very much.

This is a back route of sorts, that i have not experienced before. Very pleasant drive however. It might just be off my usual route normally, but picturesque never the less. Good weather which made it all the more pleasant enough. Thank You.

Thank you for your time. Just watched you drive from faversham to Whitstable.

I have not done this trip before, so yes, it was a nice run and on a good day, which can't be bad. Thank You.
