Mechanical Molls Weekend! Whether male or female, it would seem
prudent to have at least a few of the basic mechanical
tricks up your sleeve when leaving base, particularly
if there is no-one at home to come and
rescue you in case of a breakdown.

The mornings will be spent finding out how to avoid problems and overcome the most common reasons for breakdown at the road-side; the afternoons will be spent touring around the empty Provençal roads with the odd (hopefully simulated) breakdown thrown in 'en route'.
