Coming back from France - In the queues for check-in, douanes and borders agency, there was no wifi within range.
At least none I could access - I saw four strong signals for ECIS - Ecis guest, Ecis wifi, and a couple of others, all needing a password.
In the queue waiting to board the train, I got a signal, for the first time since October. Yay!
In the train, nothing.
What is going on?

Traffic Management Gone Bad
The terminal at Folkestone has taken to doing something odd. They have built a maze of red and white bollards. You go in one end and park up. Then when it's time to go to France you follow the lanes and you double back on yourself. And after about ten times as far, end up in the same place.
It used to be that when they called you to your train you headed to the passport and security checks. So since there were several lanes of parking, several lanes of traffic had to merge into one. It wasn't ever a problem that I could see.
But now about 20% of the parking spaces have been taken up by traffic management bollards. And we all have to get into a single lane and snake through the car park . Come the spring bank holiday weekend, it is going to be chaos.
I anticipate chaos, come the bank holiday. This is a bad idea idea M Gounon. Ditch it
