Hi All,

Well the time is here we are off on our 4th European Road Trip, we start on Thursday leaving Wales and heading for Dover from Dunkerque we are doing the following:-

Dunkerque to Souppes sur Loing, then onto Issoire, Narbonne (driving over the Milou bridge again). From Narbonne over the Pyranees to Andorra and then to Graus for a couple of nights, from Grause back over the Pyranees to Pic du Midi and then slowly drive back via Condom, La Bruiliac, Chateauxdun and Noyelles sur Mer onto Dunkerque and then up to Newark.

The car and trailer have been serviced, wheels taken off and cleaned and polished just got the rest of the car to do and that is us ready to go.

As on all previous trips the route can change due to our wants etc.

See you all at Newark.

Regards

Bob

Hi guys,

We are in Souppes sur Loing, our first stop after having done 556 miles since leaving Wrexham. Did suffer some embarrassment though, the car stopped going on th M25 in the road works and the people wouldn't let me fix it and we had to be recovered on a flat bed.....hangs head in shame......got to the drop off point and before the recovery guys had finished packing up I had repaired the car, all it was was a spade terminal popped off the battery isolator. Off to Issoire tomorrow only 214 miles so TomTom tells me.

Free Wifi here so will keep you up to date with the exploits.

All the best bb & jm
