    where would you prefer to live and why not live there? (I am assuming you're not held captive here and you choose to live here).

We walked into a restaurant while a couple was leaving and they said it was the best meal they've had. I looked at my wife, laughed and then told her 5 star food in most parts of Britannia is about 2.2 in the rest of the world besides America where it's probably a 2.5.

    I would never come here to vacation, but I sure hope the rally is fun. I have no clue how they are going to organize the city stage. It was crowded as f@ck when we arrived and very very tight. I think the viewing for non VIP spectators will be pure crap. Besides horrible western food and crowded streets with fat drunken tourists, it should be fun.

    Oh and we got some showers in the evening yesterday for a good 30-40 mins even though the weather gods said it was completely sunny with zero change of rain...

    Bluuford you must be miserable eating here. Estonia has some amazing cuisine..
    No worries, we are in Icmeler, more quiet place and hotel has some OK food as well. And we get food 3 times /day in service
    There are no wtaresplashes on stages, it has not rained on the stages for a month, nearby, yes. Some roads are really good, some look good but I assume that slow sections cut-up like hell as they are soft like pancake. SS2 is a proper-proper challange. There is everything... apart from watersplashes :P

    I would say that tyres are key factor here

    Don't get me wrong it is easily possible to get very good food in almost every mid-sized town in the UK. It's just that lot of the food considered "good" ( meaning decent), does not qualify s such in other countries.
    This is most visible in reviews of restaurants outside of UK written by britisk ppl.

    Actually Toyota team told me today tires are the easiest as far as choice goes, but tire maintenance will be key. Everyone will be on hard compounds

    Yes the water splashes are completely dry and have been swept. What I meant was due to the fact that the water splashes areas are paved and lower they will collect rocks and stones naturally.

    Fair enough NOT. Sounds like you did something naughty.
    Also sounds like you’re into frozen seal.
