Thanks... About another 80 miles to go but we stopped off with the sammi for reindeer burgers and chips in the middle of what looks like and open cast mine, lovely! Reindeer pics as soon as i get to the hotel...

[udtrev]

you ate rudolf

well what would you do ?

It's rudolf, or Cabbage Sarnies AGAIN, or herring flavoured pic'n'mix :yuck:

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Good to hear all is still going well. Hope the battery last out. How old is it?

Sylvia's heater going strong?

All the best.

Jon.

:woot: cant wait for you to do it Jim! did you take a flag, like they do when they land on the moon?

 

[Wee Smurf]

you ate rudolf

Mmm! Rudolph stew. Had some in Norway... :yum:

 

[PuntoSS]

Well done thus far, hold out Sylvia! What are the temperatures like out there?! I know cold, but how cold?!!

 

[JimMagill]

Hay... We're in the hotel about 450 miles from the last hotel! Its only -2'c outside which is pretty warm as it dropped to -9 or -10 last night. Ok, I know... It gets colder in Kent

Been a really busy day, hope this wee vid gives you some idea. Again, its been edited on my trusty nokia so forgive the clunkyness of it. Got to go another 240Km tomorrow to reach the 'end of the world' and have Sylvia as the most northenly fiat panda in the world!



Anyway, some pics...

Whey, nice read, and interesting video! I hope Sylvia can survive the arctic weather and frosts! Some jump leads might be handy, just incase! Hope the story continues all well and good.
I suppose despite it being cold, it's better than the weather back here in rainy England, been nothing but fog/mist all day long!

I'm intrigued to keep reading, so I second what purple_haze said!

 

[purple haze]

Rainy????.....21 degrees today and wall to wall sun down south!!!..

Me in the car today=.....

She's still going but you can tell that 3500 miles in a week is a lot on any 19 year old car, even one that's been half way round the world

Have jump leads in the boot and there are nothing but 4x4's outside the hotel so I'm sure they'll help in the morning (no covered parking yet again tonight)

She really looks so out of place surrounded by SUV's in the carpark BTW!

No... We only took some of our 'panda on italian flag' stickers

We'll sort something!

Reminds me of the Panda to USA trip with the photo of Sylvia amongst the 4x4's in the shipping docks!

It brightened up in the afternoon, I suppose it depends whereabouts you live. I live in the south miss but weather was awful until 3oclock.
