Oh NO, Greg... the lovely Alfa! It survived my driving halfway across Europe at high speed on the wrong side of the road :0) and across the middle of roundabouts, AND Eric's driving three times round the Muenster one way system in the early hours of the morning, only to come to grief in your own backyard! Bummer! Hope you get it fixed up soon- I was looking forward to tearing up Chapel Haddlesey High Street in it....

More snippety memories of the trip:

Playing the grand piano on the high seas (think I may have mentioned that before!) in a pleasant swell, which caused the piano, in its golden boots, to move independently of me- weird sensation. It's ok for those who are attached to their instruments!

Eric experimenting with his favourite positions (for having his hair plaited)

Sophie's delight (now there's a name for a tune, Sam!) at being given her own Mudcat badge, like the rest of us were wearing, and watching her trying to read her name in the logo

Meeting up on the return ferry with a singing duo from Wigan who had been over in Paderborn for the weekend, entertaining the troops. We played together and they entertained us with Saw Doctors songs!
