Are you planning to go dogging or have you acquired a construction fetish having undertaken you own design and build?

The word I think you were looking for is sight... ;)

I agree to stick with the northern part.

Getting to the continent can be done either by Harwich to Hook of Holland ferry, Dover to Calais ferry, Channel Tunnel, Newcastle to Amsterdam ferry.

Then to Norway can be driven by Tony's route posted earlier or drive up to Frederikshavn and get ferry to Oslo.

I'd like to do the Lysebotnvegen Road.

It's an epic drive! Takes in a few of the scenic routes recommended on nasjonaleturistveger website.

Book a night ferry for Frederikshavn to Oslo, don't go silly at the bar and wake up in Norway fresh for a days driving IMO :th:

We could do both tbh. Ferry on way there, roads and bridges way back or vice versa.
