    From Norwich to St Jean De Luz in 1 sitting (except for fuel/ wee). In an 'E' plate 1.3 Lancia Delta LX. In 1996. Started on a Saturday morning very very early with cling filmed sandwiches, a 6 pack of frazzles, 60 Marlboro Red, a case of pop and an empty 2 litre bottle for 'emergencies'.

    850 odd miles. All for a girl.... Stupid boy.

    Cairo to Eilat in an old Peugeot with no A/C in August. Took most of the day but once out of Cairo we had Egypt to ourselves and the drive down hill to the Red Sea through the mountains was breathtaking. Had to escape Cairo due to champions league pharaoh's revenge. Epic.

    No route Irish or similar stories. Disappointing.
