Confirmed @Varun Mehndiratta

Hi Sand Sailors So looks like we have a small convoy, a good chance to explore things not so practical with a big convoy. Will plan the route accordingly - however before I do so just to ensure we have all on board, kindly let me have your confirmation for the drive. Looking forward for your confirmations. Thanks @Joseph Raju @Gary F @Saverio Arena @Gertjan @topgear

I'm sure in the process, Mia learned a lot and made huge memories to brag about with her friends now. I rem, I let Iraj pour half a liter of engine oil once and heard those stories from across the globe.
