Might have missed this subject.....
But, shouldn't we be talking about our Morris Minor International Rally?
Just wondered and feeling a bit proud of being part of all this. [not meant to read as conceited].

I think there may be a book later - when they've all recovered.
I know they've got safely as far a Cairo, but havn't heard any more from them recently. They had trouble with their satelite so we receive a cd in the post!!!!!! Last one arrived ina tatty brown envelope from Ethopia

Daniel - oui bien sûr il y aura une reportage au prochain MINOR INFOS, et, il y a 3 semaines, j'ai envoyé un article avec photos à 'La Vie de L'Auto'. For the others, good translation : but what about my smilies? Or does the java stuff only appear in France? (oh dear, the Cloggies just won the footie...)
