Slow transport this year, but comfortable once there .... Built for comfort not for speed (Howlin Wolf 1910-1976) Assuming you spend 5 hours driving, 56 hours sleeping, and 100+ hours drinking, where should your priorities lie Somewhere near a bush or PortaPotty. Jerry

At my age, it takes me all night to do what I used to do all night!!!!!!!!!!! Then, growing old is compulsary, but growing up is just optional.
I don't do GREEN, I've got a 4x4

Nothing special for me this year, but I like it anyway. I've been there.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

We are going by veeeee-dubya! Portsmouth -St.Malo wednesday nite, via that pub at the ferry terminal (rudmore cellars?). If you see us give a cheer....or stop and help fix it! Managed to isolate the problems down to everything electrical and mechanical! New bumpers though, so should look good on the relay truck! Hopefully get to meet a few peeps this year. The trouble in previous years has been sitting down. We have never been able to stand up again without first quaffing flagons of 'premium' lager. Then we can't stand very well so have to sit back down - a sort of vicious circle! We'll be on BSJ so stop and say hello. Unless there's Elvis playing and empty beer tins all around - might be best to walk on, you'll get no sense out of us! FORSALE? - does it have camper kit inside? >Martini

'Tis indeed a home from home - sink, cooker, 'kin big leisure battery, wired for ac as well (shame I was too tight to buy a decent generator!), 4 berth - double rock 'n roll downstairs, double on the first floor! Almost feels like cheating! Luckily its really slow, adding an authentic endurance feel to any journey!
For sale? My wife and little boy say absolutely not! Best ebay buy to date - much better than the 'mega-watt silent suitcase generator' that barely lights a bulb and is quite the noisiest means of making wiggly amps ever! And the spare Jensen engine that is now sat in the garage cos I sold the car...........and the 'bargain' wetsuit that actually makes you colder (and is bright purple).......the list goes on.......'premium' lager and ebay just don't mix! Ooooops, might be wandering of thread here!!

Top job - looks now like its never been apart. I for one can imagine the effort and heartache, grief and strife, commitment and determination that it must have taken you over the last month to get your car together. Hope to see you there

Bring your sleeping bag - there's bound to be room in our (or another CA'ers) gazebo for the appropriate beer contribution .....
