Zed Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Hello!!!!! I will present myself in full glory in Russia !!! Round around a BIG lake I will go - drink vodka, chase hairy russian men and hopefully survive the trip!!!!!! Can't wait so much swamp to get dirty in By that time I might even have a car to take! Damm, I should really start doing something about that. Forget Christmas - lets spend money on a big winch Zed - a carless optimist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollythelw Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 Hungarian madness B) Michele - theres classes for almost any spec, the only limit is how much you want to push yourself minefields thankfully mostly confined in Bosnia - no fun on a Pan European, rapidly running out of fuel with minefields on both sides of the road when you are gagging for the toilet Walfy - works a pain, it keeps getting in the way of stuff we can sort of cheat by leaving a car in "sort of the right area" rather than drag them back and forward to the UK. Theres always a friendly face with a corner of barn to lend you and it makes it feasable to jump on a cheapo flight and do a hit in a few days rather than a load of travelling tacked on top.

dollythelw Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 Veszprém, Somogybabod, Croatia, Romania are easy hits for you - belt down to Ancona - get the ferry over to Split in Croatia and do the short hop up north into Hungary or mooch through Bosnia (Sarajevo is weird but worth seeing)- meet you on the Hungarian border, we have some mates down there - you'd love it B) Parlinka + Gulash + sausage + beer = fall over, its easy and can be achieved with any specification of vehicle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
