We hope this finds you all well.

Happy valentines day!

The dizzy heights of day 8, and a very short message to announce that we have made it to northern morocco and the car is running well.

We have been stopped twice by the police: the first for no particular reason, but they decided to search the car and confiscated our hand axe- until Jo smiled sweetly and with a " c'est pour le feu" it was returned..

The rif mountains grow 75%!o(MISSING)f the world's marajuana (ish) and luckily, most of it has been offered to me ( david) by hilarious seedy youths......I must look like the type..... I have also been mistaken for American, so have ditched the baseball cap....

Love to all

David and Jo

Medical fact for the week:

Keeping two tortoises can alleviate the symptoms of asthma ( according to a tortoise salesman.....). Any evidence base out there?!

Jo an axe and Potts, what could go wrong?
Glad to hear all going well and that the charm offensive is well honed. Liking the blog, has a feel of Gerald Durrell about it. Let me know when the book is out! Looking forward to your next encounter, look out for yourself in morocco, makes me feel nervous just thinking about it. Take care Stephen

Dont buy the turtles!
I\'m afraid Pubmed doesn\'t support your salesman\'s BS but the oil is apparently used in some African tribes to alleviate symptoms.. Have an amazing time and I hope there are 5 foot green walls greeting you as you head south to the coast!
