Dropped the truck off this afternoon for ne clutch and ball joints. Everything all packed ready, I set for off
Been thinking about the Plage Blanche tide issue a bit today, I see that we have three options
Stick to the current plan and hope its ok when we get there, or take the detour rounfd the back of the beach if it isn't
Divert down to Tafroute in the Anti Atlas then pick up a piste south to Assa rejoining our planned route. This would put us a day ahead of the plans so we'd need to fill that day somewhere
Slow down a little on the way to the beach so we get there about 15:30 when we should be ok with the tide.
Just something to think about we can discuss options on the way

We shall leave Geneva most probably early Saturday morning and drive as far as we can. The Spanish port is 18 hour drive and we are three so will try to do it in one hit....
Ok two days to go and Chris has gone very quiet, not the hyperactive 4 year old on xmas eve excitement I was expecting so........................................................................

Last Tesco shop to do, hair cut, feed Gary and it'll be Friday morning.
Well new clutch is fitted but only 1 new ball joint, my reliable mechanic I've used for over 20 years has let me down badly this time. I'll be having words or a serious nature with the owner. They had the truck on Sunday so plenty of time to do the work
Err, yummy? Or possibly not? You'd better not park near me when I am cooking my tea. It might upset you. I have chicken Rendang, Green Curry, Sweet and Sour chicken, chorizo bean stew, Chicken Laksa ...
