"Why don't you read what he wrote.." I have re- read it Roland and it gives the clear impression the claim was base to base while the journey was (slightly) shorter. Perhaps beagle will clarify otherwise?
No need to clarify anything. Rather than making stupid comments, perhaps you should read my post more carefully this time....
If (note use of the conditional) I'd gone to Brize and driven round the entrance roundabout, I would have been paid for 102 miles for the entire journey and it would have taken a total time of 2:06, according to Autoroute. However, because I elected to go direct and save 0:41 driving time, the miserable $ods would only pay for 68 miles rather than 75.
Is that simple enough for you to understand?
