So here we go again, this time in reverse!!!

Tomorrow the journey begins...the 2 day treck back to Blighty.

So set off from here at 3pm to get down to catch the ferry in Turku...across overnight to Stockholm and arrrive at 6am Friday morning.

Then it is a constant blast (fuel stops a plenty too) across Sweden, into Denmark, then down into Germany across a little bit of Holland, Belgium and into France.

Make it to Calais and through the tunnel...then finally on home soil again wazz up the Heathrow get a few hours kip in the Premier Travel Inn and fly back to Helsinki to pick up the Mrs and kid.

Then we all fly out together back to London where the car is waiting for us!!

Sounds crazy yes I know, but I really want to be on the flight with the liitle one for the first time...and I need the car in UK for MOT and a good bloody service, plus a few goodies too.

Map of the route!! Best get some Red Bull's in then.....

Nice mate, enjoy the trip. That would break me putting that mileage on the car over 2 days! If you need anything I live by Heathrow, just drop me a PM.

Huzzy - If you fancy having 2 WR1's in your driveway mate then go for it....would save me a few quid on car parking for 2 days...return Monday at about 4pm. Leave you the keys for a test drive too?? :P :lol:
