Please warn motorway drivers to keep the slow lane free for my motorhome this weekend.

Just a reminder to motorway drivers. I will be driving my motorhome down from North Manchester to Folkestone terminal on 12 May. I hope you will be as good as in previous years when you have emptied the slow lane to allow me and my wife such a stress-free journey. It’s quite touching how you all crowd into the outer lanes just to let us through and you can be sure that we do feel a little embarrassed when we inadvertently pass so many of you on the inside. Anyway, thanks in advance and don't forget the date.

I’m sure they will all manage to keep the nearside lane clear for you, just as they do for me on Sundays.
