26 November


Getting close to the finish now.
We had just picked up some fuel and were heading to the "jungle camp" when a couple of kids on the side of the road through a small rock through the windscreen. Pretty frightening really, it smashed completely, Helen was covered in boken glass and suffered several small cuts (nothing serious so don't worry mum!). I gave chase to the brats but they got away.
Now, you may recall that we had already lost our original windscreen and were using the rear window, taped to the front with rather striking War Child tape. So now we had no windows front or back, a broken roof, smashed rear light and broken headlight.
It was a windy drive to the finish and Helen looked just like Gromit in his side car - we had to laugh!

"The windshield was broken, but I love the fresh air you know"
