Yorkshire to Italy? notworthy

Grease the Kingpins before you go; grease the kingpins when you get there; grease 'em when you get home! And upgrade Breakdown insurance to Europe-wide.

Then enjoy, you Bucky Larstard. And tell us about the trip when you get back.

"Good luck"

Enjoy and amy all your mechanicals run smoothly.

Last time I drove in Rome I aged very very rapidly.....

Not becauses of the traffic

Not because of the other drivers

But

Because my bl@@dy passenger kept waving their arms saying look at this look at that.... Ah well

Enjoy the drive to and back and of course Rome

Hi Dave S. You are sure to enjoy the drive as much as the destination. Its on my wish list to get to Italy. Hope to read a write up from you soon. Maybe take a laptop and type up a few notes as you go for the little details as well as the big picture.

Hi Peter
I have made a note of the B & B, we have booked a nice small Hotel in Santo Stefano al Mare where you park the car under cover outside you room - Hotel Anthurium, 2 minutes from the sea stayed there last year.
I will be in Bellagio on the weekend 3rd/4th August I will PM you for your details if thats ok ?

Steve
