Off to Rome for a weekend, back Wednesday, so if there's anything in the mean time, Ger or any of the Mods can help you out.

Right fokkers, I'm off to Dusseldorf for the weekend, back on Tuesday, anything urgent, Ger's in charge

Enjoy.

Howdy from Dusseldorf, they had no decent hire cars so we got stuck with a Smart ForTwo Diesel, slow as a wet week, terrible handling and we almost got killed on the Autobahn when the wind blew

What are you thinking getting on the Autobahn with a Smart? All it would take is one 5-series going by at 100 mph.... 8O :P

Any particular reason for being over there?

Oh yeah and Hi! hope your enjoying yourself!

*Thinks... really should have started the post with the latter* haha

2 year anniversary Shell! Its our last day here, its raining this morning, but we've been lucky with the weather so far. Seriously interesting city, weird new architecture, and very cool old buildings. Lots of MINIs and Minis here too, lots of Cabrios, but only 1 Clubman so far.

Just packing now, we've to leave the Hotel at 3am and endure the Smart car again on the Autobahn. At least the wind has dies down now, so it should stay in a straight line.

Catch you all tomorrow when we're back in Ireland!

Hope you had a good trip back Owen!

Hopefully you're not to scarred with your experiences in the Smart.

by **Owen** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 6:30 pm

Thanks guys, left the Hotel at 2am, and stayed in transit until about 9.30am, then to work, just home, and off out again unfortunately, but a great holiday!

Off to Poland today, so Ger'll keep an eye on things while I'm gone if you guys need anything. Have fun!
