day 3 and the rain is not helping my mood

Stuck in Cologne in an Internet Caffe and Judas Melville has flown back to Dublin and left me to sort out the Jeep. Bit anoying not to be at least able to bounce Ideas arround but to be honest I probably move faster without Earlon schmerlon and so it's pedal to the Metal.
We did manage to find a possible donnor last night and after a few mails this morning it would seem I'm now faced with a 5 1/2 hour drive to Sunny Bavaria to pic up an engine this Dude says is good. Then I have to hoof it back another 3 1/2 to Aschaffenburg where the Jeep is currently still standing. Will probably instruct the mechanic Dudes in Aschaffenburg to start taking the engine out of the Jeep ready for the new one that I'm hoping to have there at some point tonight. Gona mean some hardcore driving action and a night in the Picasso :-D but as they say when the going gets tough.......................the tough fly home to Dublin (sorry Earl could resist)

pray the rain stops so that I can maximise the lack of speed limits here :-D
