Very important update

No rally news, something much more exciting, Julie and I became grandparents this morning.
Becky and Steve have a little baby boy, 6 lbs 13. No name yet, but Mum and baby are doing well.
All the competitors and H & H team on the Tiger Rally send their love.
Well done Becky and Steve. X


Bit of rally news, julie and I have made a bit of a mess of the the last two stages, but we think we are still in 5 th place. Molly is going really well, with her new dynamo and better petrol and Julie's ankle is nearly back to full strength.
The route of the rally has been changed, we could not get the cars into Cambodia. But, we have driven to the border and been bused into Siem Reap. Tonight is the Gala diner and prize giving.
Tomorrow we are of to see the temples. Then bus back to Thailand and long drive to Bangkok.

I am sorry we have missed out so many days but the Internet connect has been rubbish, hope you have been able to pick up the photos on Facebook.
This is one of the better roads in Laos, try doing this on wet mud, with a rear engine and all Julie's luggage over the back wheels, keeps you on your toes :)
This has been a stunning trip.
News on the final positions tomorrow.
It's prize giving tonight and wetting baby P's head :)
