Re: On way to Kharkiv.
Happy Birthday Andy.--seen your mum's blog.Seems you've had some hard driving and a wet night.Did you fix tear in tent Jon? Hope the weather improves and state of roads or is that too much to expect.Glad Surfers are catching you up, I had wondered. Hope you make Kharkiv with time to celebrate Andy. You're going great, don't get too knackered.Luv Jon's Mum

Greetings from the RC community!
Guys! Hope you're well, looks like you're going well, keep up the good work, as you know Skoda power rocks!
No doubt you'll be talked about at this weekends Crawler Nationals, we're nearly ready and Andy's truck is looking a little slicker than when he gave it to me!
Will let you know how we get on.
Keep safe and be kind to the car, all the best, Steve
