Have a good time and write something egg-related on Mo's pate while he's in a drunken stupor - then post a pic of it There's always Transylvania (or whatever) next time. Les.

Bull Bar Cowboy Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Glad to hear its going well over there and you’all are having a ball………….. B) We just flew back to the UK this morning from our trip …………….. it was mostly OK but a good many of my routes were still impassable due the damage from hurricane Ivan which was 4 years ago ……………however the weather made up for it with mostly 28 – 34C…………….

pugwash Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 "Toyota: The Mediocre 4x4xfar" all the landies haven't ben fine- stickies has had major surgery and the yota has been brilliant- by far the comfiest if not always the most economical (14mpg anyone - eek- though that was off road and pushing it hard). a certain maurice murphys truck is smoking like a chimney- can't beat these efficent TDis !!!trip going very well- couple of us tookm a detour to watch he portugal rally- which was fun even if we did get moved on by the police at 1 in the morning. weather could be better- not as warm and sunny as could be hoped for but it looks like improvemenets are on the way!
