| 10 weeks 2 days ago | apart from us of course, the car has been a legend, though we got through a few tyres, almost all punctures through the sidewalls, had none in Kazakhstan, but Mongolia is lethal for rubber it seems, so I'm glad our bonnet based rubber ducks didn't make it that far. Our last moment on the road wasn't quite on the road as we grounded out on an earthen road block but it only set us back by an hour or so and we made UB by lunch, last night the tent finally died when the wind tore it up and blew it flat, Dan took to the car while I hid under the remaining tatters, we just relaxing today in the Gobi Backpackers hostel and will deliver the car to the CDPF tomorrow, wicked!
Rock on people!

| 11 weeks 1 day ago | Yep, we're in Olgii, in Wester Mongolia at the moment, and it's amazing! But to start the story from Barnaul, we bumped into a hippy en roiute to the border and he invited us to a hippy festival, so not wanting to appear ungracious we went along and after walking 10km up a mountain to camp above the tree line had a fantastic time with amazing views, unfortunatelt camaer batteries went dead. The Floristic show was mad flowers everywhere and somewthing along the lines of guinea pigs too! read more » | |

| 14 weeks 1 day ago | Thanks to all that showed up last night and made it such a classic evening, loads of thanks to all sorts of people: The Bands: Valhalla, Roshambo & Plastic Toys ... great sets by each and every one, check them up on myspace or wherever you can find them, they're wicked! read more » | |
| 15 weeks 5 hours ago | Things are all coming together now quite nicely ... Fitted a steel sump-guard to the Escort on Thursday (so now it is bombproof) ... I say sump-guard but in reality it covers a whole lot more, why skimp when the supply of steel sheeting is plentiful I say! Thanks to Adrian at Badminston Garage for that one and a whole lot more, he's been a total legend! read more » | |
| 17 weeks 4 days ago | Just like it says on the title, I've organised a charity gig at THE FIREHOUSE in Southampton, everyone is invited and for a minimum donation of just £3 on the door you get three great bands from the Southampton area, these are: Plastic Toys (electro rockers playing a limited edition accoutsic set), Roshambo (an Indy band in all but name for they are much better that plain old Indy) and one read more » |
