    From my flight from Thailand being cancelled to the two awful Ryanair flights last weekend to this, I think its a sign that I need that I need to settle for a while and give the big journeys a break lol. And that's exactly what I am going to do!

    Feel your pain..... we drove on that road towing a caravan 😵‍💫 it was deffo squeaky bum time... It's the road and maybe the altitude 😅... Listen, it's a good tale to tell 😊

    Thank you for the kind words Steve. It’s a pleasure to be able to help you out with our house in Spain. I’m only jealous that I’ll be back in UK wishing I was there! 😎

    Hi Steve, long time subscriber here. I did something similar once (diesel in a petrol). I realised before too much damage but the result was the same with a 250 mile journey ahead of me. Just drove till it all burned off lol. I submitted my visa application on Friday so heading out your way before too long 🤞so will make sure I only use "proper" service stations on the drive 🤣 Looking forward to the next installment!

      Hi Wendy, I did that too once and got away with it as well lol. Good luck getting your visa sorted, it's so much nicer here than home, waking up to the sun is fantastic. And yes, no manky petrol stations 😂😅

      @@TheRamblingIrishman Lol yes - keep my car clean! Can't wait for the heat - been freezing for months so can't wait to get to my house. First time bringing the car over so hopefully it gets through the Spanish registration process. Doing the same as you - retiring early on a budget 🙈🙉🙊

      Brilliant! Crazy to stay in the cold when you can be living here...cheaper.
      I'll have to put my car through the process too but it's insured, taxed and mot'd so no rush

    Glad you made it buddy, was looking forward to meeting you at the Oasis Meet Up but the guys were telling me you were having car trouble! Hope you got settled in. If you need anything buddy just holler 😁👍😎

      Thanks mate. In the end the car got me here and it's driving OK so hopefully I don't need to do anything. I'd love to have gone to the meetup, but I was just too exhausted. Hopefully we'll get a chance to meet in the weeks ahead 👍

    When you said the car was better after you stopped, i thought about the old computer saying - "Have you tried switching it off and back on again?"
    😀

    • @TheRamblingIrishman
      @TheRamblingIrishman  6 місяців тому +1

      I had thought of that Aldo, really early on but I was worried that once I stopped I wouldn't get going again. Maybe just a reboot but I was afraid lol
