Bordeaux - and no wine!

Arrived at Bordeaux at 3am. We have a current max speed of 120kmph due to the amount of load we are carrying and if we hit a hill it drops to around 80!!! Grrrr for a performance car, either that or we should have found a NOS kit for the Kaddett LMAO If we did have a Nitrous Kit at least we could have another illuminating switch hehe.
 
The hotel was interesting it was like staying in a wendy house, but it had 2 beds and was cheap.  The alarm going off this morning must have woken the entire floor and both Colin and Chris were playing the game of "if I cant hear it I dont have to get up!". We got back on the road and Chris did the first hit. 
 
As we are running a bit behind the program we didnt manage to partake in any of the local wine but will make up for that soon.
 
Have heard from the Chester Hallers and they are feet dry and at Bordeaux now. We are currently 2 hours further down, but are taking the Andorra route compaired to the coast one they are using. It was great to hear from them but the call came in and made Chris miss the stop he had been aiming for (for the last 97km) and promptly had to do another 50 before change over.
 
We have already emptied the ipod of the first set of music. The playlist hadnt really been thought through and Orbital or Hardcore Dance is not welcome in the early hours by Colin. We had already listen to enough Bio Hazard and some really random "love album" ( 3 times) and only had the dance left. As writting this new music is being uploaded whilst we listen to a mega mix cd.  OMG how retro next we will start wearing pop socks and global hyper colour tshirts.
