Russia/middle east/other unusual destinations

…and I think that it was Bullitt who after I had written what little I know of this activity, asked if I could get more details. This I tried to do, but sadly I was told that he was suffering from Dementia, so I did not press the issue with Marie Clare…

Merci beaucoup M Saviem. Appreciate the effort. I think anyone who has an interest in long haul truck driving to anywhere unusual and off the beaten track so to speak (and that’s most of us here) cannot fail to be interested in the overland routes and runs down into “Black Africa”. Sadly, given that whole swathes of North Africa are now turning into basket cases, the chances of anyone resurrecting such a route nowadays seems almost impossible. :neutral_face:
