Right now you are probably about to see some of the most beautiful sights of Canadian wildlife (watch out for the bears!). Make sure to pick up some local heirlooms as it is deep inuit country until you hit the BC state border. Oh. And eat some pancakes and maple syrup :D You guys are crazy lucky to be able to do this stuff in the US and Canada.

Wishing you our best regards from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal ) in wonderfully sunny South Africa where most of the people in our town has gone totally “ gaga ” over Spain’s victory against Germany , who are however remaining totally “ mum ” over which team will win the Finals , Charles and friends . p.s ssttt We do not expect any continuous response from RGET we are all very enthusiastic about this great under- taking and all our “ REPLIES ” are a reflection of our support for you and your project while some of the observations are only there for your consideration if they have any relevance . Dear RGET ,
in one of the photos while you were driving in the rain ,
it was noticed that the inside right back light glows
bright orange while its corresponding opposite lens
on the left is transparent and was not glowing which
seems to be the reverse gear indicator equivalent
lens , should it not be the opposite configuration since
driving is predominantly on the right hand side of the
road and the yellow or orange is presumably for fog and
would be more evident on the left hand side of the reverse
light clusters ?

Wishing you our best regards from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal )
in wonderfully sunny South Africa where most of
the people in our town has gone totally “ gaga ” over
Spain’s victory against Germany , who are however
remaining totally “ mum ” over which team will win
the Finals , Charles and friends .

p.s ssttt

Will Spain be able to contain Netherlands the same way as they did Germany , while they both have never been to the finals they really have nothing to loose ? It will depend on which team wants to enjoy themselves the most . However , this Cup has been full of surprises which has made it more enjoyable . Most of the predictions have been thrown out .

I had to go 2 meters back with the sr0 because I crossed the line "where you are supposed to stop the vehicle"! Yeah the team caught part of the second half of the game on an 11 inch (almost black and White ) tv set in Watson lake! From what I could tell the Spanish were playing better and the germans were panicking towards the end.. Gordon, doughnutting is drifting the car in circles! Thanks for all the support, keep following us, I'm sure there are many more fun stories to follow! Pambo It was quite funny seeing the difference between the us and Canadian border control!

Remaining in the VEE HICKLE was something I learnt when stopped for a first time by a Police officer back in the '70s when was a student at Morgantown, West Virginia University. These are very straight forward people! Keep the good work up. It seems that besides the project you are getting all sort of experiences!! In less than 2 hours Spain faces Germany. Everything will be at standstill!!! Pambos, do you want to bet? I loved the encounter and the exchanged with the guard.

Does the software allow comparison tests with regards to discharge and recharge ratios , with respect to mileage and terrain that was covered to see what impact it has on the batteries in terms of durability , discharge and recharge sustainability ( it would be too soon to notice any anomaly yet , but good in the future ) and reliability ? Wishing you all our best regards from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal ) in overcast South Africa , where Netherlands beat Uruguay 3 : 2 in a nail biting cracker of a game last night , ( it looks like Jan Van Riebeeck has returned with a vengeance ) does anybody want to place bets on the Germany vs Spain game tonight starting 20h30 local time probably 08h30 this morning your time , Charles and friends .
