A Coruna and a broken cable

Way back in 2002 we drove our car all the way to A Corruna in Spain. It was a great journey and the car was perfect for such a trip.
It was an epic journey with just one overnight stop along the way. That was in the middle of France
At this point l had a slight shock because at one point the accelerator pedal went completely slack and stopped working. For a moment there I thought we were in big trouble, but actually it was dead easy to solve. All that happened was that the little clip thing that joins the cable to the works had broken. It was easily fixed by clamping the cable between a nut and a bolt. It worked fine for the rest of the journey and I was able to do the job once I got back to the UK; no problem!

We had a great time in Spain and we came home on the boat from Bilbao to Portsmouth.

That crossing takes 24 hours so it is a bit of a break in its own right. Because of the length of the crossing you have to have a cabin, no option, but for my family, that was part of the experience
