Well, Steve did say airmail, not guaranteed air freight. Big difference. And the chzech postal system is the weak spot. Not dishonest, just bad. Things go into holding areas, and stay there. Nobody looks at them again.

Of course.

Once you get outside the major conurbations of Portugal, it's equally as '3rd world', but you're never more than an hour or so away from a big city with all the usual things, and more, that you'd expect from a city in the UK.

The Czech postal system isn't that bad really. Worse than ours, but not much worse. I see parcels from Cz on a weekly basis, nothing much seems to go missing.

Plenty of friends and rellies I can register it to over there. Won't be a problem.

I might have to catch up with some of you reprobates in the flesh. I imagine I will be flying into Heathrow then heading up to Scotland via Yorkshire where I have some friends.
Fraser
I live in Yorkshire :-) You're welcome to come and dribble over my Clio :-p Not literally dribble *on* it you understand...
Oooooooh. Cool. You can take me for a blat and scare the crap out of me.
Fraser
There's probably a good chance I'd crash if I tried to show off, and probably kill us both. Is that ok?
Sure. You gotta die sometime. I've had 2 really near misses and one where I had to be brought back. I figure anything now is just bonus time.
