Test blog
Hi everyone
Just a week to go before we set off on our adventure. This is a test run to see if
a) it works
b) if you want to be sent entries from our travel blog! A notice of the blog will be sent to you via email and you can read it (or not) by clicking on the link.
Can you please let me know if you get this message by emailing me at gilliebowen@wanadoo.fr
I don't think you can answer via the blog.
Many thanks
Gillie

A lovely drive in the Sologne.
... that we are doing OK.
We now drive to the final RT of the day and we find ourselves all bunched up with 5 other cars on the rally, so we drive in convoy. There is a festival feeling here with the towns people waving us through their towns and taking lots of photos.
We arrive at the final RT and we take bets as to how many times the Mustang has to overtake us. She starts a minute in front of us ...
