On the Road

[Guest]

Well guys
Am finally on the road. Was a fairly hectic few weeks tieing up loose
ends and all that but the pqnic is over and in cruise control mode.
Departed last sunday - supposedly from Rosslare to France, but I
missed the ferry due to a session the night before and ended up hqving
to get a ferry to UK and eurostqr trqin to france:
So merrily put Rome in the GPS and headed south. The hangover was in
full force and i didnt know i was enroute to Rome in France as opposed
to Roma in Italy.....
Anyway, q few more twists and turns and hey presto, sober, in Tunisia
waiting for Libyan visa.
So a big thqnks to you all for all the help and insight over the past
nearly 2 years. I wouldnt be here without you that is for sure.
Also a big thanks to Julian for fixing up all my frogs issues and the
other stuff. Not to mention the B and B
Cruiser is going like a Jumbo and got 2100 km on full fuel load on tarmac
My favourite bits of kit so far are the water tank / purification
system, and the long range fuel tank.
Tested the fridge juice consumption when on the ferry to Tunisia and
it used 50 percent of the battery charge in economy mode over 18
hours at 0 degrees.
Keep it lit for now. Will be in touch down the road

Hi Niall,
At last eh!, best of luck with your travels and may the wind be always at
your back and the road in front not too steep.

Niall,
Take plenty of pictures, throw away your wristwatch, take it easy and
enjoy life while you can!
Best of luck!

Hey Niall
Best of luck and thanks for keeping us informed about your ALCO side on this
ELCO side.
Well I thought it was funny because its what my younger son sometimes calls
the list and maybe he is not too far wrong really.
Well all I can say is you have a bigger set of Crown jewels than me to go on
a trip like that on your own.
Should be able to see you again when you get back.
May all the luck of the Irish be with you and remember if you cant go
through it go around it and that includes all the bars.
cheers
