Nice blog dude!
You are doing a great job there, don´t you get funny comments from your neighbours?
I used to get them all the time whenever I had to do some maintenance in the middle of the street and, I must say some of 'em where actually hilarious (some were not so cheerful 8)).

By the way, posting some pics is also a must ;)

Cheers

Haha, you are right.
One of my Welsh colleagues kept telling me all the time that, appart from them, all Europeans drove the wrong way.

Driving in the UK is a hell of a good experience for people from the mainland, its great!

there's an interesting article here (http://www.2pass.co.uk/goodluck.htm) which explains why most of the rest of the world drives on the wrong side of the road right and the british [and former empire] drive on the left.

apparently it's all napoleon's fault!

from time to time, i will post some pics here in the forum, but if you want the full story, you'll just have to keep reading 'carry on herman (http://www.carryonherman.net)'  ;D

no work on the van today, due to the traditional manchester weather:

i've only visited spain once when i went to córdoba many years ago.  one day i was walking along a street when it started raining and people came out of their houses to watch the rain falling.  it was such an unusual thing for them. 

[in manchester we come out of our houses and stare at the sky in astonishment if the sun appears! ;D ]
