leaving DE from Baden-Karlsruhe International mega-modern-airport

; arriving minutes later (time-zone trick) in UK w/ Ryanair driving, at slightly larger, slightly-larger more-modern airport (factor of truth: 1:100), renting a modern "has everything required for 2010-style safe-motoring rhd (yikes) micro-cruiser", crossing much lovely countryside; seeing none of it (darkness factor), me driving toward Wales, with a long-break to a) sleep b) do 1 'on-foot not-too-fastly lap' around lovely Castle Combs Race Track, only to soon thereafter enter the ancient past in an ancient but lovely Gamma Berlina (not me driving) deep & deeper into mysterious wild Wales ... meeting ghosts - in hotel-gardens where no murders were committed on days when I was priviledged to reside there with the Gamma UK Club ...
for details of murders see www.radnorshirearmshotel.com... in order to execute day-ride-raids in a many a different rhd Gamma, swapping seats every several hours, sitting in/on left-side of Gamma on left side of the road (double yikes?) with a different Gamma Pilot driving like a
wild Welsh border-raider although sometimes we were actually in England ... me enjoying every minute of everything & not having to drive at all meself nor have to answermobile-telephone (no reception) or satnav navigate (no reception) to anywhere (what are route plans & maps for? ), not to watch TV( no reception) nor worry about anything at all.
Heaven must be like this !
