    I just love getting on the eurostar and within 6 hours setting forth in a lovely old place like Avignon or strapping on skis in St Martin with non of that airport malarky. Tunnel is great!

    Efes is a popular Turkish lager! Possibly more popular amongst tourists over there, and certainly a popular drink of choice amongst inhabitants of Wetherspoons pubs over here...
