Thanks John , unfortunately there is nobody that can get off work for a month to come with me :-[  had another look at tolls/route etc.. this morning should hopefully be reasonably straight forward  :D bit worried about Snow& ice in the Pyrenees ? and any ideas on getting van weighed when loaded taking a hell of allot of stuff? somehow I don,t think it,s all going to fit in  :o

PS,, any more news regarding the Plywood sheet situation ?

Thanks again for any help
