Hey guys,

I've not been so active lately as I have recently moved :)

The plan for later this year was to come over to Australia and come see the land but instead my and my mates got talking and we decided to move to spain for a laugh.

Try get a job etc and work our living.

So far it has been a blast and the weather is awsome compaired to the scottish weather. It is nice to see the car getting out to new places.

I've always wanted to take the car round the world which i am still doing but as i got i will be taking pictures at any opportunity.

I have a daily blog on my BEBO page - www.bebo.com/sallen01ws (http://www.bebo.com/sallen01ws)

so you can check that out and see whats happening.

but till then i'll leave you with this little photo i have always wanted to capture :)

Astra VXD and the Eifel Tower, France

Steve - if you're going to live in Spain, do they allow you to keep a RHD car for an extended period of time, or are you going to have to send VXD back home until you get back?

Yeah if you place Australia on top of where he has been you'd probably be somewhere in SA on your way to Victoria ,our country is so bloody huge and plenty of driving and sight seeing to be done ,don't need to cross any water though !!!:p

hard would be an under-statement, and there were other roads even better than that :D
