Yeah, take it easy with the right foot. It’d be awful if you damaged Sway’s new car.
Thank you! I laughed out loud in this dead and alive bar!
I'll be sure to get that scratch sorted and give it a damn good clean before I drop it off to him.
He's actually being very decent about all this!

Just seeing videos of the torrential storms in Southern Switzerland (Zermatt) and NW Italy near the French border - bloody hell! Never seen anything like it.
If you’re anywhere near there in Switzerland make sure you stay safe Brad.
That is exactly where I'm heading Boxster! If you’re anywhere near there in Switzerland make sure you stay safe Brad.

Have you driven in Greece and Cyprus? They can keep their lovely weather! t all over this year (apart from Greece, Cyprus & Turkey where they’re having a heatwave).Sod’s law.
I actually love Cyprus, me and shal went many years on the trot, it's not somewhere I want to drive a car with intact corners though!
Well, three intact corners anyway.

We’ve been keeping an eye on the weather for our trip and it hasn’t looked good. Mind it’s no better here either. We would normally be there now but for some reason we delayed it until 7th July.
Like you we’ve always had great weather on previous trips.
Never been in France for Bastille Day so that’ll be a new experience!
I really hope your trip works out mate, it's proper sLike you we’ve always had great weather on previous trips.

Try to get to Carcassone if you can for Bastille day, they have a fantastic pyro display in the old town, lasts for ever. Everyone leaves the fields pissed and gets in their cars, following the directions of the gendarmes very carefully.
If not a village or small town would be my next option

Semi-serious post as I'm stuck for a way to pass the time.
I have a few years of these supercar into Europe threads now, maybe 8 or something?
I never go back over the old ones and I've never really thought in terms of a life journey, it's just yearly nonsense I stick up here.
I don't even know how to find them, I know in the past someone has put up links to all of them but I didn't save that.
Things have changed a bit though. With some very impactful things happening in my life over the last few years I'm thinking maybe it is worth keeping as some sort of record.
And doubly so as I think as I age my views on life get more out of touch with the woke moderating I see on the sites I frequent, there's a very real chance I'll say something that'll get me a perma ban and all that I've posted in the last 20 years will be dust.
To be honest the vast majority of it amounts to nothing worth keeping anyway but some of the stuff in these threads does have import to me now.
Is there a way to archive a thread complete with pics and links and all that?
Or would it be a case of going through and screenshotting them all?

Thank you very much UTH.
I'm not going near that 2021 thread but that's exactly what I mean, I would like to be able to save threads complete for a future time when that stuff is easier to deal with.
And 11 threads including last year? Why do you guys keep coming back to this nonsense!
I had no idea it was that many.

I don't know how long photos remain in threads, probably not forever, so just bookmarking that one I just sent the link to might not be enough because I guess one day you'll load it up, click the other links and the photos might have vanished, but someone more techy than me can no doubt suggest a good way to save it all.

Always fancied Carcassone but the nearest we’ve been in that region is St Remy de Provence and near Avignon.

Possibly, there's a facility in Chrome to save a page. I have a few years of these supercar into Europe threads now, maybe 8 or something?

There's three little dots in a vertical line on the top right hand side, click them and it opens a menu, with "save and share" towards the bottom.
If you're going to do it, I'd make sure you're set to display 80 posts per page and not 20.
