Oh...and minor point we forgot to mention is that Vicki is in a wheelchair. We'll explain when we get back but her foot is mashed. Mum's please don't panic - she's fine@

So we're on our way home after a cracking party on Saturday night sharing stories with some great teams and new friends. We'll catch up with you all as soon as we get back and get sharing some pictures and vids! Thanks for following our adventure x@
Meghalaya, India
Wow, we left you on quite a cliffhanger didn't we? Been no phone reception for about 4 days so no update...for those waiting to hear - WE MADE IT WITH A VEHICLE!! 9th place in fact clocking 3911km in total. Was looking dicey on Friday morning as everything that could go wrong did: flat tyre, spark lead flaking, running out of fuel (again!!) but we crawled that metal calamity up the hill and got it there with 1st gear not working.

RIP stereo. Never strong enough for these potholes were ya?
West Bengal, India
We are as close as we can get to Bangladesh without actually going in right now. Highway is all potholes. Please send a helicopter as would be much more convenient. Thanks.
Uttar Pradesh, India
Just left Chandipur after a night swapping stories with other teams. We ran out of fuel again yesterday resulting in a couple of hitch hikes for Josh to get more. We've learnt our lesson and carrying spare now. Talk about learning the hard way!@
Odisha, India
Just spent the last 3 hours driving through rain and then slopped through a hotel lobby when we got into town. They were mopping up behind us we got so wet. We also smell like wet dog.
Odisha, India
So far today we've hit two trucks and a monkey and an eagle went for our Rickshaw. The monkey is fine by the way.
Andhra Pradesh, India
a relaxing day today lunching in the Indian equivalent of Clacton-on-Sea meaning we've seen the sea from both sides of India in one week! Gears are not happy as they keep slipping. Got to get to a garage soon. Also had first beer since Sat. It was so good...have one yourself - you deserve it ;)

11 hours driving (1 scary hour when it was Vicki's turn) resulting in us getting lost in rural India. We finally made it back to the highway - no thanks to some dud directions from two boys (Josh had his suspicions) and then ran out of fuel, at dusk. Getting towed on a main highway at night is not fun. Relaxing at a lovely hotel now. What a mission :)
