Today has made up for how good yesterday was. I've found the area run by the French, no one else could be such cunts.
Booked a place in Brasov described as a good part of town. It looked like a war zone full of druggies FFS. Found another hotel near Pele's castle and the lying security guard cunt tells me I can get in the backdoor. Can you bollocks, 10 mins wandering around to find a lift. Get out the lift and every door is locked! Come out he's going 'no the front' you fucking pointed at that door and said yes you dumb fat wankstain.
Get to the room, no towels so has to wait for them. Obviously lost the money on the first place too.

That's after a day of endless heavy traffic and towns on what's described as a scenic route... I filtered for 15 miles past stationary traffic at one point.

Oh and I was up from 2am.last night with explosive d&v so not in a good mood to start with. Why do cunts appear once you're in a bad mood?

Anyway, the few pics I took today as about 15 mile of the 110 scenic* route was actually scenic.

The missus and I toured France 30 years ago using a green Michelin campsite guide book. Had all the info you needed including a map. Was a great wee book.
Fancy doing something similar again. No sat nav, just a book.

I use both. I sit with the atlas (where I've marked all the things I want to see myself) pick what should be a nice route and put it in the twat nav.
It's very rare I let the twat nav pick a route as it loves to go to town centres and ride in circles rather than bypasses etc etc
