ad, that was when they were rushing in the half light to see the dunes and not looking at the road ahead, just the GPS. She said they are doing a 10 month trip, get there during the day & see it at dawn next day. Niaive yes but then a bit stupid then. At least no one died and the roof tent survived.

England 
Channel 4 'My Famiily's Crazy Gap Year'

Anyone catch this tonight?

A family set out to drive through Africa on the adventure of a lifetime in one of those reliable Toyotas, crash it, buy another Toyota and end up breaking down time and time again.

Rescued in the middle of nowhere by some Brits in one of those unreliable Landrovers, break down again and give up.

Superb
