Just so that you all know, Mrs GL and myself had a wonderful (wet) time and are now home enjoying the sunshine
Unfortunately the GS+sidecar are still on holiday in Helmstedt. After finding out we were on the homeward leg, it started crying through the final drive thingy bit making loads of noise and then shed oily tears all over the floor by the petrol pump.
Despite the best efforts of Axa Assistance we managed to arrive home about 01:00 this morning (Sun) after breaking down about 12:15 Friday. Bike to follow later (not a hope for Beaulieu then )
Full story may follow later (if I can be 4rsed)
Top marks to Greg for a wonderful trip (he's not the God we thought though, as the weather was mostly shite - except when we weren't riding much i.e. on a ferry or 20 miles to cover in one day - so note for (if) next time, must try harder )
