How? Turkmenistan has no jurisdiction over Middlesbrough.

Interesting to see the yurts, or whatever they were, around it. I didn't think there was much camel grazing in Mordor.

You know what Brummies are like.  Give them a flat spot of land and they'll park their camel on it.

There used to be a Cafe Hell right by the river Inn in Kufstein, but Mr Google's Kerbcrawler shows it's been renamed the Inn Cafe. Boo.

Kufstein fortress is a good morning out.  They keep all the Nazi memorabilia in the attic, a bit like Father Seamus Fitzpatrick's secret room.

Hell is in Norway.



Uninspiring destination. Great journey.
