The Filthy Lucre Tour

The sticker on the car...
The picture of the car with a sticker on it is of the Island of Sylt - on the German/Danish border. I went there in 1993 and blacked out in the sea and nearly drowned before being swept into the beach over some rocks - shredding part of my chest. Otherwise a lovely place for a holiday!

Catching up
Just catching up with your progress. Sorry to see the car let you down in May and needed a new radiator! I doubt that the viscous coupling on the fan (Lüfterkupplung) had anything to do with it actually. The plastic housings on the side of the E38/E39 radiators are known weak points and they often break where yours did. Bad luck though! Nice to see 100,000 miles too!

All the best

Good luck
Hey, just wanted to wish you good luck on the climb. Doesn't look like I'm going to get to the ring or the wedding as I'm moving house round then.

Perhaps we'll see you when you get to the States.

Your Equipment
I'm surprised that you managed to get 250 litres of gear down to 33Kg. I'm Looking forward to the summit photo. I expect you to look just as fit and happy as you looked at 5700 metres in Mexico. On that subject, have I mentioned that I have actualy located the G12s which I suspected you stole and sold to Phil? Your blog continues to be hugely entertaining.

Cheers
