Just a week to go before we set off on our adventure. This is a test run to see if

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.

Many thanks
Gillie

Another hot day, but a good one - not too many points. We need to wait until dinner to see our ranking and our starting position tomorrow.
Shower, Dinner and Sleep - more driving tomorrow - and I can't wait!
