When the British government let out bids for the digging of a tunnel under the English Channel estimates were in the millions of pounds One firm asked only 10 000 pounds however Considering equipment and labour cost the construction chairman asked the low bidder how do you propose to do the job for such a pittance?

Then you ve got TWO tunnels
