Being an Englishman I feel the need to make an edit to educate you fine colonial types old chap

"I changed the route slightly to give me better landmarks to aim at: Dungeness (pronounced dun-je-ness) "

No such thing as "English Point".
The English Channel is 21 miles at its narrowest points btw

The 'French point' is Cap Griz Nez, but it's up to the French to convince you Americans how to say it........
