The LD Lines promotional tour bus is visiting Dover this friday 12th Feb.

LD and TEF (Trans Europa Ferries) are engaged in talks which may result in a partnership. One conjecture is that the Norman Spirit may run Ramsgate-Ostend as the Ostend Spirit, and the TEF flagship Oleander transfer to Dover-Boulogne. She is the old Pride of Bruges, ex Pride of Free Enterprise (sister of the Herald and Spirit), so this would see her return to Dover.
Here is a photo of the Oleander entering Ostend, which is one of the best photos I have ever seen of a ferry:
