Jumping through hoops

Originally it was just B and I crossing the channel.
Then Arthur decided to come with us.
But talking to Irish Ferries proved difficult if not impossible - so we didn’t get to add him to passenger list.
So best get another ticket and go as foot passenger.
Foot passengers not currently taken.
But they take cyclists… On another crossing… So we drop A off with a bike and meet up in France. Hopefully.
