Thanks to you all for the information...I was expecting carnage..They really are hopeless there ..I've bitten the expensive bullet and switched the outbound to Liverpool and travelling to Malaga instead of Gibraltar and crossing into Spain will be a lot easier there as well...
Liverpool security is apparently normal and they are even offering Fast track, which at £4 a head seems wise, at times like these..
Might even have time for brekkie at Frankie and Benny's..
Either way feeling much more relaxed now..Thanks again to you all
