    Lake Bled... Are you near there?

    I just saw the coolest picture of this lake with a mountain range in the background and an island with what looked like a church in the middle.

    It's down under, the Coriolis effect makes everything backwards.

    Wanted to install new gps today, to save some money.

    Dropped truck at 7:00, truck is loading at 14:30 only, they had plenty of time.

    Stupid ukrainian mechanic unplugged tachograph incorrectly, damaging it completely.

    Now I have truck loaded with fresh goods, and no tachograph.

    Kill me.

    It works 50/50. I don't know what this Ukrainian idiot did, he only told me "ja nie padumal", his boss told me, that he installed this gps to 10 other Volvos, in 2 they had exactly same problem .. great.

    Found a service which is trying to fix it now, but he still needs to load some stuff in Germany tomorrow, and then visit @daf105paccar monday morning in Zeebrugge ..
