This is the update thread.....there are various people (Bilks, Steptoe, Jamie & Jason ) who will no doubt have some pics of the first leg down to Gib and hopefully there'll be some pics from the Launch party, then en-route if anyone who gets a text or an update from the team, please post it here so people can know what's going on.

If we get a chance to find an Internet cafe, this is where we'll stick any updates along the way as well :thumb

They found the ferry!

Had a text this morning from oblertone.........

In Bordeaux, very cold, thick fog but no snow.

I think what he meant by that was how many pairs of shoes would you like me to bring you back but i might be wrong.
 
Rev Chucks son Stephen, you have a PM. If you don't know how to access just post.
Anybody will give you a quick runthrough.

Just managed to speak to Charles :) Says they're driving 'nicely' ( someone's obviously been getting a bit of stick about their driving!!) along road to Algeciras to get ferry. Beautiful sunshine and lovely and warm! The things people will do to escape a little bit of snow and cold ...!!
 
Hello from a new user!

Hi I'm Paul's (aka Bernie or Oblertone) "Posh" Cousin! Well that's what he calls me (among other things) LOL. Will be logging on regularly to track progress of my crazy cousin (and the rest of the gang too), so keep these messages up to date. I have nothing but HUGE respect for what they are doing. I'm quite jealous really. Victoria and James behave yourselves! ;)
 
Hello everyone, Dawn from Oswaldtwistle doing this for the first time ever !
I'm Steve Chip's partner and was wondering where they would be, now I know. I haven't heard from Chip yet (that's not unusual) but now I know everythings going well. Thanks to all of you who have posted updates. Wishing you all a great night tonight and a very happy new year.
