First fuel break...we have given ourselves a full day to get to Harwich so this was the first of many stops that lasted longer than 30 minutes...

this is just routine maintenance...or so Archie says...a broken wire on the lighting coil...just a 20 minute job to get the lights working again...this is about the time he reminded me that I had had a faulty connection on an indicator bulb and we had stopped on the hard shoulder of the motorway to fix it...whatever...

we stayed at Alan Stevens' house on the Wednesday night...this is the contents of his garage...

just waiting for the local press and TV to turn up to take a few shots of us as we embark on our intrepid 35 mile journey to the ferry port...well it was 35 miles for all the locals...we (Archie, Beth, Bec and myself) had already done 200 miles...
