How do you like your Works? Nice eh?

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

You may alos not have heard but Jane and Red Leader are engaged....... it seems its not just Matt who will be needing to buy drinks


Spaci, is it worth phoning our Hotels in Switzerland/Asutria to make sure that they are not flooded?

Red Leader,

a technical question.

Will we be stopping ealry in France for cheap fuel or are your orders to arrive at Dover with a full tank so we can press on?

Well since my last tank of BP Ultimate was 99.9p per litre I plan to arrive in Dover running on vapours

Makes (financial) sense to top as soon as possible in France

I've just checked on Autoroute and our apartment is 35 minutes (and a wonderful drive) from Le Muy and Gassin is another 10/15 mins further. So if at the end of Day 3 a dip in our pool and a meal in beautiful Gassin appeals, let us know and we'll bring a route.

Remember Andy is a Gastronome extraordinaire - his standards are high, however for the normal hoi polloi (ie us) Speedferries can feed us for an hour.

@ Andy yea works stuff is great sound (noise) excellent
the hotels in Switzerland are fine no floods there and i think this one in Austria also
Galtür is in Tirol. Austria is bad in Ötztal like Sölden

@ Red Leader&Jane congratulations and many thanks for the drinks
looks like we have lots of fun on our trip

@RVW yes i will take lots of caffeine breaks my navy says 8 hours to Reims but i think i made it in 6 so i have lots of time to take some coffee-breaks

hope you all have a save journey to Reims looking forward to seeing you all

God save ours MINI's
