MOT and LOOONG towing trip

I have just got back from a weeks holiday in the truck.
On Monday I drive to the south of France to pick up my 2 tonne (including trailer) boat and return to South Wales with it.

It will be my first very long towing journey. I'm using B100

(home made biodiesel) so the fuel costs should be low. She had a oil and filters service last week so ready to go

Today I'm having an MOT - it's the first one for me. I know I need two new front tyres so I'm already at £220 before they start looking for problems

Fingers crossed - I'll let you know we get on.
