Wednesday July 01, 2009 Take the 200 bus to Victoria, then get off in the desert
When I was picking the Jeep up from Triple AAA Garage today, I noticed these cool photos on the wall (and snapped them via my phone, so apologies for poor quality).
How do you get a London bus into the desert, for a Dr Who episode?
You use a large rescue truck from Triple AAA -
Pretty cool!
Triple AAA appear to have everything you need for when you get stuck in the desert. This Hitachi caterpillar thing looks quite cool. I just hope I never have to use it.
One final picture.
This is Zighy Bay, which now hosts a 5 star spa and is no longer publicly accessible. It used to be one of the scariest drives in the area. I used to love driving up and down - very steep and very rough. Although I gave myself a fright several times, I'm glad to say I came nowhere near this sort of a situation -
