Packing the car




Packing up the car last night. Somehow everything fitted. Rollo had already squeezed in all the spares in the handy rear compartment which sits under the hood. Everything else went reasonably comfortably in the rear seat space - sand ladders padlocked over the top, and tents over that, under a cargo net.
The surreal hand waving from the engine is a surgical glove attached to the crankcase breather - to allow it to breathe without inhaling sand. I'll keep an eye on this in Spain, and if it doesn't last will find another solution.

Now last minute photocopying of documents - so border posts can have everything they need, and then it'll be off to Portsmouth to meet the others; David and Jackie Hall, Jonny and Diana Malcolm-Green and Oliver Holmes and Ian Tarbett. Mark and Sue Owen went ahead and will join us in Southern Spain and we'll meet up with a Sabre support vehicle in Rabat.
