So we’ve both resigned. Julie has a couple of weeks to do and i have till 30th September. I’m scared. I’ve just looked at the bank and totalled up all our money. With nothing coming in the total must now…

Both carnet and Syria visa are applied for. With any luck these should be processed quickly. All i need to do now is sort out letting the house out.Did i mention, Julie isn’t helping a bit ?

She’s back and with a nice new full bush kit. She actully rides better so the old ones must have been a bit tired. Took the garage 7 hours to do them and some needed to be burnt and cut…

Ferry is off and its official. Now going via Syria. Visa applications to do and then post and also to sort out the carnet. So a set of passports is going to go to who knows where. Lucky we have…

My baby is at the garage. I hope everything goes OK with getting the bushes done.

Matilda goes in to get all her bushes replaced tomorrow. Should have her back by Wednesday. I just couldn’t be bothered to do it myself.I’ve also started a catalog of all the spares i’m taking, its quite a list. I’ll…

We slept in the 110 last night on the streets of Nottingham. The car was the topic of conversation for quite a bit of the evening where we were celebrating a colleagues 37th Birthday. Makes me feel old as it…

The cooking shelf is finally finished thanks to the farm shop. They came up with the idea of using a sash window fitch (yes its called a fitch, google it) to hold the shelf closed. I had no idea what…

Just got my arch fuel tank from Maverick4x4. We’ve had a few items off Andy at Maverick, Roof Rack and Steps, Shocks and now the Tank. Not the easiest thing to fit but took the opportunity to check the main…

Ordered the new bushes for the suspension. Going to get them fitted because i can’t be bothered. I’ve been quoted an hour a corner which i’d say is OK.

Spotlights fitted and wired in. Not sure they are in the best place so might need to weld something onto the bull bar. We shall see (or not!). Need to go out to test them out tonight. Might be able…

Fitted a cooking shelf to the back door and I am rather proud of it. We’ve seem one at Billing for £90 and this cost me about £30 and its custom fitted. I’ll post some pictures in later on. Still…
