Not packed and still many miles from home, will catch the 11am train from Almhult to Copenhagen, fly back to the UK, collect car drive home, pack and then down to Poole for the overnight ferry and be at Le Mans around 11am tomorrow morning, just praying the flight is not delayed.

I can't believe you two are still here. Oops, so am I, bugger.

One last quote, one more order to raise, and boom, I am on my way.

Sun has just broken through, so it's all looking good. What can possibly go wrong.

All you guys still to set off, have a great trip, and a great weekend.

Oh fantastic! Looks like I am going to be the last (promise I'll switch off the lights before I leave) to set off! Catch the 23.45 overnight ferry from Poole to Cherbourg on Friday night! Land Cherbourg Saturday morning......!!!!!

Looks like the Gendarme might be getting a bonus on Saturday morning!!!
