Excellent, treat yourselves to some breaded chicken with garlic butter... see if the locals' have heard of it. How's the car bearing up? Have you had to use the hammer and gaffer tape yet? Best of luck David and Gi.

Re: we are just outside kiev airport in a shell garage.
Hi Andy. Work here. Happy Birthday and all that. Where's our cakes?
Happy Birthday to Andy (for yesterday)
Yeah, Happy Birthday Andy, y'ol' git! You might think you're catching me up, but that's a myth. In fact, my Mac remembered, but I forgot.
It's well known that Russian airline pilots can do a skin-ful of vodka chasers, before the hapless tourists pass through passport control. Hope you stayed clear of them buggers, and at least one of you remains sober enough to drive. I'm not so lucky with the buses - I don't have a co-pilot to blame my misdemeanours on !!!
Well, you're making great progress and 80% of my "First Breakdown Mileage" raffle-thingy punters are out. Still pls let me know the mileage IF you do grind to a ( god forbid ) halt. ASAP, there's an extra £30 each to your charities on its way.
Roses are red, violets are blue. Soviet vodka's mental, and so are you...
Best wotsits from -PL.
Purple lobster says Hi.
Jon, if you think Andy is getting out of order, and needs bringing down a notch, just show this to a strapping 6ft2" Russian arm-wrestler:
Мой друг хотел бы заниматься сексом с вашей бабушкой в церковь
then run for it. ---- PL.
Re: Purple lobster says Hi.
hi guys glad to hear your still making progress. i did find out some choice stuff for you to try out on the local russians from a nurse at work but I'm not sure you would thank me!!! All is well here but bike needs a new camchain as making a bit o noise!
