Firstly, thanks for the replies guys - very helpful!
Secondly, Legal, route not yet planned, other than a very vague one (UK - Bologna - as DCT as possible with one fuel stop, return trip has overnight stop in the Venice area but otherwise similar). There seems to be some substantial "lumpy bits" on the way, so I guess some careful planning will be required !
What route(s) did you guys use ?
