Andy W, Bill H + Blue Mini van
Set off from Bramham X-roads on A1 down to Cambridge in fine style with the tyres scraping the wheel arches and the exhaust an inch off the floor. Kipped overnight at Becky's and then down to Ramsgate for the Sally-line 11.00 am Sat crossing to Dunkirk. Very nearly came off the road in France due to a sharp corner & Bill's expectation that the brakes would work properly.
Crashed out near Munich in a forest & hoped it wouldn't rain.
Arrived Grundlsee Sun lunchtime to find C.U.C.C. swimming in the lake.
