We left on Friday for a road trip to Germany, moving Bo's furniture to Ireland. Well, 70 miles into France the transmission in the Transporter bust, Saturday night at 10pm in the middle of nowhere.

We had to abandon the car in Caen, no rental car was to be found on the easter holiday weekend and make our way back to Ireland by any means possibe. 2 days later we arrived back in Galway.

Left to be said, that I still need to figure out, what the repairs will cost, which can be challenging due to the lack of my french skills and obviously I will have to go back to France to collect the car, once repaired.
