my ipod say that ive made more enties but now that im on a REAL computer the blog says that ive not made an entry since the 1st of june;;;;;;; well foloowers ive made many since then and i tell you i cant recap cos my memory is like a goldfish.
Ive had my 62nd birthday der where did all those years go?
We are at the end of our little trip and we are at my daughters and family in france and leaving tomorrow for our final journey home.
Sam, my son-in-law thinks that i have a shit fetish and my language is disgusting as well as my spelling (and grammar).........fuck him and his family...whooops thats me too;
Ive onlytold it how it has been and as for my spelling ive been using my i pod which has tinykeys and my fingers are like walls pork sausages so maybe i press the wrong keysd AND im a shit speller but that dont make me a bad person.
Well where was i oh yea;; the 1st of june
drove over the alps back into france into breancon. the van is a dream its so old but the engine is marvellous.... sounds a bit like me the outside is rotting but the engine is full of life
Parked outside the odl ozn along wit the truckers and the posh rv.s with their tv.s. cooked another great dinner and sunk a bottle of champagne.Had to use one of those electronic lavs I hate them always think they gonna open in the most inappropiate
places (fetish stuff again Sam)
Sam is hanging over me typing this and is hassling me to do capital letters etc....fuck off sam its a blog not a fucking piece of prose......
as i was saying over the alps into france........ bloody rain following us.
Syayed the night in a municipal camp site full of old whooops elderly people farting and limping to the lavs...makes a change than us.....
next night bloody lovely turned off the road found a quiet place by a like and cooked mussles and chips to sheilas delight then zent for a walk in long grass me wiv my docs on and sheila in her sandles i forgot to mention that france unlike Ireland has snakes hahahahahhaha
after hours and hours and bloody hours arrived in Porniche to the camp site that my daughter told us to go to.
Thunder and lightening came with us.
Kelly and family joined us for 4 days which quite emptied the site or maybe the elderys were moving anyway.
So now we are nearly up to date
Have had a drive around at kellys,
to a chateau a market and pretty clean towns and villages, and experienced a very embarrasing moment in a patisserie
was pointing out to the woman what cakes i wanted and she walked in front of me as i was pointing to a tqawith berries on and she bent down and my finger pocked her arse hole ooolala i said and thankfully she laughed.
gonna be leaving tomorrow sometime and we will have 3 days to do 300 miles. which with sheila navigating might take us around the block hahahhaha

He was great, full of local knowledge perfect english travelled the world bit of an old druggie and political so had a right chinwag wiv him!! Sheila feeling much better, i think the medicine (beer) has helped.
The manager - sorry cant remember his name said the hotel was full the next night with sports people but we could stay in his suite if we wanted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boredom and Borders
The pain in my guts from the duck during the night is my penance for eating it.
Sadly we left our new made friends with a promise from me to stay with them in Kiev in September and a maybe from Sheila
Navigating our way to the ROmanian border was difficult as all the writing on the signposts are written in the Cyrillic alphabet which has no resemblance of our own and because neither of us speak Ukranian and hardly anyone speaks English at times we felt bewildered but eventually we made our way there.
We arrived at the Ukraine side and that took a good 2hours to pass through even tho there were only 5 in front of us. We were right excited getting into Romania but that soon wore off as it took another 5 hours to get through their check-point fucking hell what a bore. I had 5pisses on the back of the van and through the bucket contents out (sheila only had 1 she must have a bladder the size of a cows udder!)
Everytime a car went up they had everything out went through it all looked under over and around the vehicle and only 2 guards doing all the work while at least 6 watching madness.
When it eventually came to us I had the usual stuff about the van not in my name but we were eventually passed to the search people which we were dreading cos of the amount we have in the van but when the guard cami in the van he laughed asked us me if I had any drugs (what me officer) or guns hidden(as if I'd tell him if I had) to which I said certainly not and let us through without a search.
Hahahaha little did he know we had contriband on board - 2 large pieces of Parmesan cheese from Italy - not allowed to bring in animal products
It was lashing with rain by then and we were shagged from boredom.
we drove about 3hours over the most appawling roads, pulled up in a town outside a cop shop went out for dinner and had a shit night as the rain was so heavy the noise was deafening.
Left at 6am to make our way to Transalvania
It took ages cos most of the roads are full of crators and they are deep you have to drive around them and lots of train lines to cross over that have no barriers or lights to warn you of oncoming trains CRAZY
On the whole quite a harrowing journey. Most of peoples homes are in bad condition and some falling down and still being lived in GREAT CHURCHES THO (no change there then ay?)
However we are here in Sighisoara the birthplace of Vlad Tepes (Dracula to you)
It's a medieval citadale town, the old bit is up hundreds or seems hundreds of steps with cobbled streets old houses lots of it falling apart and clanging clanging bells oh and its very beautiful and thank fuck its not the tourist season.
Having a bit of luxury after last night and hoteling it in the square up
Here and Sheilas is not feeling too good sore throat and a bit of a fever.
Sicko

Don't tell anyone
14thmay. We were asked if we wanted to go for a picnic obviously we said "lovely" so we walked across the field, a fire was lit a big pan pan of water was put on it and a cereal that looked like a coss between sago and porridge was pored into it and stirred til it thickened and then seasoning and pickled bits were thrown in and jars of preserved duck and stirred and stirred and then dolloped on plates! I ate it cos I wasn't gonna say oh no thank you I don't eat meat could you do me something else ....no way it was a traditional outdoor meal called HUNTERS PORRIDGE normallyade with what's been murdered that day. It was strange tasting and they said they wouldn't tell anyone I'd eaten it!
An early night as we are off in the morning.
It will be sad to leave them it's a weird experience when you have an instant connection with a person or in this case a whole gang
