Adam,

The thought of selling stories to LR World, LRM, etc did cross our mind, but we decided to skip that. The main reason being that I've thought a bit about writing a book, and having the trip published before in a magazine wouldn't be a good thing in many publishers eyes.

As for being cured of "landroveritis", the Defender worked without a problem for 62.000 km thru africa, and is still going strong here at home (it's gone 90.000km now). I'm thinking/dreaming of taking it on another trip thru africa in a while too. BUT! If I was to pick out a vehicle for the same trip again, I'd get a Toyato Landcruiser 78 (Troopcarrier) with the 4.2L Turbodiesel. The only problem being though that these are not available in Norway... But they are definatly the best of the 2 when it comes to lasting the longest. IMO.

The worst disease that I've not been cured for is "Africaitis"...

It was far easier to get rid of Malaria, Typhoid, Giardia and other nasty diseases we had underway!
