See you soon Newton! Better to have given up in the mountains than in the underground carpark accessed by lift only here in Logrono. I don't think your car could have ever been recovered from the bowels of this place!

I remember that car park. Think I have some video of Merrian trying to get out of that...tight is not the word

So sorry to read this Newton. Gutted is not the word...

Morning all, and sorry for the general lack of luck and toilet facilities noted above. Hope all are well, and muddling through as best possible.

Newton, there are no rental cars anywhere. ANYwhere. Absolutely feel for you.

Glorious weather here...bunch of toys waiting to be played with once I dutifully do my chores.

Oh, and Courtney bought 4 more alpaca (3 of which...whom?...) are pregnant from a farm in New York state...and they will apparently be here on or about October 4th. So, the chore list got that much longer...so, no toys today, probably...

Oh if only - Presently in Santander again about to go to another car rental lace as Enterprise want the car back in Spain! Need one to Calais…
Get a flight to Bristol Newton and you can take my GS over there and catch the others up... as long as you don't think it's tempting fate for lightning to strike twice... it needs a good run as its only done 20 miles this year and that was with Matt testing the car after another service.

Caught up with the crois again about 22.40 tonight in the pizzeria in Odessa! Even collected the second casualties on the way from Pamplona! So been to Spain twice today… (yesterday now), so tired, night night.

Morning all, very tired last night, realised I’d been running on adrenaline/stress trying to organise a replacement vehicle that we could take to Calais from Spain. What a mare. All paled into insignificance when we heard of RoaryRati’s plight; at least we were initially stranded at a hotel, they were literally abandoned at a city bus stop with all of their stuff (way too much to carry at once), and the same issue we had faced of not being able to get a loaner car that could be left in France.

So today is a slog across France to the Med.

Have fun all…

Morning all. Fingers crossed for the SM holiday, did Matt upset some wizened old lady sitting at a cooking pot?

Off to the Autumn Show to look at vegetables today.

Morning all, sound like some challenges on the SM tour but as always everyone pulls together and it works out in the end its the fellowship, camaraderie and food & booze

Morning all...weather looming. Unsure of when the maiden voyage of the Spyder is going to happen. Hate to hear of the bad luck catching. Hope everything going as well as possible...

Morning C, morning all…Great day at Silverstone yesterday. BTCC programme always produces some great racing and thrills and spills. 8 safety cars and a red flag also.
