The end of the road

Well its morning and just had breakfast. The team are still asleep and probably be nursing the results of a night out in Monaco soon.

Just like to say thanks to the team for a memorable enjoyable journey. Thanks to Miranda an Pauline for supplying an in car sweet shop for the journey. Thanks to Robin for endlessly placing his foot in his mouth with the girls. Thought that would be me. The sugar highs apparently saved our lives from tired drivers ;-)

2 days in costume... man it feels nice to be abandoning El Barto

Finally a massive thank you to all of you that have sponsored us for this worthwhile cause

Till next year :-)

New car, new backseat


I'm going to the backseat of my car with the woman I love, and I won't be back for TEN MINUTES ...

Girl's sports

If the Bible has taught us nothing else, and it hasn't, it's that girls should stick to girl's sports, such as hot oil wrestling, foxy boxy and such and such.
I'm not so sure they should be responsible for driving a car.

Love,

Mrs Krabappel has forced us to go green :-)

Hey guys we have just made sure this trip is green by buying carbon offsets, not sure what all that stuff means. Lisa says that's what we should do blah blah blah. Laters!

Ned Flanders' car is now mine... all mine!



MARGE!! Look at this great car I found at Ned's!

It was just sitting in his garage so I thought waste not, want not. So I told him "Ned, I'm taking your car, the boy stole mine"

And he said "Okily dokily Neighbourito"



Spider Pig, does whatever a spider pig does



Woohoo! We have a spider pig. He's coming all the way with us to Monaco, upside down on the ceiling of the car.

He is going to be chief doughnut supervisor
