Just noticed that LD Lines have changed ships on their Portsmouth Le Havre route from the Norman Voyager to the Seven Sisters.
Cant be a bad thing as the Norman Voyager was a terrible tub.

The Seven Sisters was used on the Dieppe / Newhaven route. It always seemed fine to me, but I must admit I'm not really bothered about ferry facilities, so long as there's a decent seat available.

We're with Brittany this year and they pride themselves on having the best facilities around, partly to justify the higher costs. I hope to be snoring for most of the crossing.

They are welcome to it. Its a very dated old tub, with a duty free the size of my toilet!

Learnt something there. Did n't know the Britt Ferries " no frills" was the Voyager when they said it was ex Stenna. Even a ton of Brittany " "magic dust" won't make that ship for me , and the prospect of all the way to Santander? No thanks. It's a freighter.
Can't help but think BF have got that one wrong, ------and Etretat is such a nice place.
