Do any Mumsnetters know what’s causing the delay to Eurotunnel trains this afternoon/evening? We’re 3 hours late boarding and still waiting to board. There hasn’t been any info other than the expected boarding time, which keeps getting put back.
We’re on the French side but logic tells me it would be the same at Folkestone.

DP is stuck in the same, initially said 1hr delay but has just sent me this.

No specifics as to why.

Thanks @PatriciaHolm we saw that too but it didn’t make sense.
Anyway we’re back in the UK now and in “congestion” on the M25 😫
