Back home too... at last ...
We had a great run back through Netherlands, Belgium and France .
then hit the Uk to find torrential rain most of the way home , M20 M25 so slow ... a further monsoon on the M3 and accident on the A303 ..

And get home to find the PC dead whilst in the kids care and having to spend an hour mending it, so I can get on the forum

But had a brilliant time meeting every one, putting faces to names, and basically just enjoying the countries and company of great People .

Super thanks to Ian and Jan for getting this through the end.

Sure we will a lot of pictures to put up on here ,over the next few days .

Chris & Liz

PS , even the 260 behaved impeccably, getting close to 28 MPG on the First UK stretch to folkstone , and a I 've done a load of rechecking and still get the same figure on the run back to calais, 34mpg ?

Seems too good to be true but even with top up clicking errors at the various pumps still over 30 ?.

But maybe possible with a lot of slipstreaming in convoy at 60-70 for hundreds of miles , we did 305.5 km to Folkstone garage and the Top up was 25.1 litres.
