Terry, I think you misunderstood Al's comment about 1UK mile = 10N.American miles. I have been to the UK many times but other than London I have generally ended up somewhere around the Dover or Canterbury area (close to ferry or Eurotunnel). Last time I went over for the day (on a Saturday from Belgium) and decided for something different I'd go to Sandgate which in terms of distance (+/- 50 miles??) looked to me like about 30minutes away from where the Eurotunnel exits in England. Well 2.5hrs to get there, 4hrs to look around, 2.5hrs to get back, plus about 2hrs each way (drive + Eurotunnel) to/from Brussels added up to one long day. Mainly due to my ignorance I might add! Your machine looks like a great find.
