Burgundy 5


·     Mon.22.10.07. The final hurdle now faced us of how best to return the car without incurring a monstrous excess on the damage that had not really been ‘fixed’ but had been ‘bodged’ by ‘Tivoli’. I returned the vehicle bulging with ‘essence’ to the ‘Europe car’ bay. I was immediately greeted by ‘inspection’ man. After a quick look around, he past the car as fit: no bonus for him this Christmas. Checking in for the flight was a breeze shortly after, for the first time, when we were up in the air,  bound for Liverpool, I was at my most happy. The problems, even though we have faced up to them, have made what should have been a thoroughly wonderful trip into an ordeal testing both our wills.
