In Odessa big suze kapot had fire in engine, and the clutch cables gone. Luckily we found a garage to push it to. Going out tonight with Sobby's friends, we're staying in their extra apartment for free!! The car won't be fixed until monday at the earliest so we're breaking off tomorrow to catch Lyle (Team "The Goonies") up in Russia hopefully.

Day 8

We've got to Odessa, left Jack after a perol stop. I even spoke to him about his Panda!! Its awsome, so much engine protection!! Got her at 12 last night, Suze broke down again! Took 2 hours to find centre of the town, we parked and asked in a cafe for some food. They came over, lifted up Suzes bonnet and spent the next hour fixing her!! Insisted we all had cognac shots after!! Very surreal night amazing the friendliness of some!! Slept in car again as there are no hotels open at 3 in the morning!!

Day 7

Think we're in convoy with Jack (Osbourne), we just found them after we got a bit lost!! Had to leave the other lot we were with at the border as Sobby's car broke down again!!! They had to bribe to get over the border as the chassis number didnt match up to the documents!!! Left Sobs a few minutes ago having a beer with the locals who helped fix the car!! Roads are awful!!

We're still at the frickin border just about to leave we think!! Taken all day which sucks, the worst day so far! Hopefully we're going to make Odessa tonight.

We re-met the car parked next to us at the launch, the Mongolmugs!!
