3G dans les Francais!

First bit of French reeled off with great success, and just met an RS4, E92 M3 and M6 Cabrio headed off for the ‘ring. Plus de superb!

0 Day 1 – Departing

posted on June 18th, 2008 by Steve in Road Trips

Protip: Don’t drive 100ish miles after around 2 hours of sleep. It’s not fun in the slightest.

Well, isn’t this exciting/scary. Currently sat on the eurotunnel train waiting to leave, very glad of the (albeit shite) 3G connection, but very annoyed that my home machine seems to have changed its IP. Way to go, technology.

Anyway. Breakfast has been had and stupid light filters applied to headlights and stupid magnetic GB sticker applied to boot and it’s officially ‘a go’.

First task is get to Paris and locate a hotel, as I couldn’t be bothered last night and didn’t have time. Also sorry H for lack of dropping-off-GTA action but, priorities, man!

0 Day 0 – Packing… Nearly

So NOW it’s 00:54 and still haven’t started packing, but at least I’m happy with the look of the blogstain now. Maybe I’ll even send the link to some sorts, although that stinks of self-importance and self-talking-about-ing and such which I’m not a fan of… but then I am writing a blog, after all…

So it’s now 23:57, I need to be up at 6am tomorrow to get ready to be out by 7, I’ve spent the last half hour fiddling with this stupid blog and haven’t even packed anything yet. Hoorah!
