Bon Voyage to fellow Overlanders Gary and Claire!
Thursday, May 21st, 2009

We met fellow overlanders Gary and Claire for the first time, earlier this year, at an overlanders bash that Ollie and Jen of www.jollyfollies.com organised. Ollie and Jen left during April for OZ (last heard of hanging in a hammock somewhere in the Istanbul region, about a 6-weeks into their journey ). Now Gary and Claire are about to make their departure from the UK for a total 11-month overland trip to Oz, then flying back. They have a blog they are planning to keep updated called www.getjealous.com/110defender and celebrated with a big party in Rugby at the weekend which we were delighted to join. Gary and Claire’s vehicle looks fabulous and they’ve spent alot of hard work and time getting it ready. We had a good look at the vehicle complete with roof tent, fridge, bucket seats, rear shelving, on-board water system etc. and are very jealous! Very best of luck to Gary and Claire from all of us here and hoping to see you in the world somewhere soon!
