Hey Conrad, you guys have done great. Shame the Panda couldn't keep up with you but it's been great to follow your journey. Hope to see you soon. Well done lads!

So, the Panda has lived up to its name by giving up the ghost and joining the ranks of the (almost!) extinct species of that name! What a shame, after all the hard work which had been put into making it roadworthy. Never mind - it's still a great adventure (though perhaps I should have come along to help you out with all that paperwork) and I'm still very jealous of the thought of you enjoying a Big Mac in Red Square......I hope it was good!
It's been great keeping track of your progress and I hope that you are now enjoying yourselves in the Baltic States (one of my closest friends is Estonian!).
Best of luck for the rest of the return trip.

Well at least the head gasket stayed intact !! You made it a bloody sight further than I predicted although the fuel filter episode in Inverness was before you made it to Perth. Didn't think you'd make it past the Broom of Moy. Seriously though, well done to the pair of you. Takes balls just to have a go.
See you when you get back.
All at Bitz, Cawdor

Unlucky guys, though I think you made it 2,000 km more than I thought you would.

Enjoy the MacyD's!

Oh and get back to work!

Safe Journey

Heya Guys,
Really sorry to hear that the Panda packed it in. You gave it a good bash. What a unique experience you guys have had for a great cause. I'll looked forward to hearing your stories when you get back. Drinking with anyone working in the oil game is risky... But Scotish ones!!!! You did well to survive LOL :-)
BTW Conrad, love to know what you chose to eat at McDonalds (I'm agahst!!!!!!!)
See ya
Andrew

What's up in Inverness ? Is the car ready & MOTed now ?

In response to:Flappo Brothers Mongol Adventure

Mon, 01 May 2006 08:03:35 +0200

That should be great, indeed.... and probably the experience of a life time

The car is now fairly prepared, and so are we.

This sounds great fun!
I know it's stupid to ask, but is there a point to the exercise?
Or is it merely a gathering of like minded people roaring of into the hostile lands of Mongolia?

I am looking forward to this one!
