Craigcrevo. Hello mate. You obviously know my Mrs well, your pictures are top. Thanks for perserving with the 'War & Peace' despite the typos etc which I'm still finding. Strange how you read things over and over agins which are wrong but your brain or maybe lack of one sees somthing else or fills in the gaps. :S
Anyway I'm pleased it made you smile and hopefully gave you more of a feel for Morocco, that was always my intention rather than just an account of our 'holiday'. Much to do this weekend but I will endeavour to post the next chapter and pictures. Sorry for being a tease but I'm sure if it had all gone on in one lump (mountain) even less people would have read it. But thanks again and you made my Mrs smile at 6am this morning when she was about to set off for London.:)

:) Mark1150 Thanks for taking the time and trouble, obviously a gluton for punishment, a heart felt thanks for learning my language. Poop Poop for any Wind in the Willows fans, it should have been motorcycles rather than a cars, it certainly is for me. The new Triumph is already turning my eye.

The thanks should be from me to you, a cracking read with some great pictures.
Re the motorcycles in Wind in the Willows, you do realize that they would have been on something like a Briugh Superior with side car, well thats whats counjured up in my mind ( An insight into the mind of a mad man! )
Re the Triumph, It sounds like Toad Hall will have a new resident shortly!

Funny you should say that, there has been a Toad campaign for the purchase of a Ural Rig...

There is something about the Ural that I like, maybe it's the no frills utilitarian approach to motorcycling, the only thing wrong with the picture is the colour, should be either Black White or Khaki, IMHO.
I remember working in Lewisham a few years back, and every time I looked in the dealers, the attraction grew stronger.
Go for it.

:) The Khaki looks best the reds a bit bright and brash like some teenage X factor 'star' but what she's not told you is that we have 5 bikes between us and two cars, so I'm not sure where it would go. £9000 for new one is a little steep. But it would be fun to ride and certainly different.
