The Wrong Way Up
Africa. The Cradle of Humanity and beating Heart of Darkness. Where famines of biblical proportion rage and scar the conscience of the world; where colonial cartographers drew straight lines to create conflicts with no straight answers.
And where two total idiots and their crap Landrover have probably broken down three times today already. They're also likely to be hungover and lost.
Welcome to The Wrong Way Up!
Over the next few months, Jake and Nick will be driving from Cape Town to London using the medium of travel.
This website has been created to allow them to harbour delusions that they will appropriately document their trip, thereby theoretically allowing you to seethe with envy at their adventuresome exploits.
The thoroughly-thought-through plan
Erm, there isn't one exactly. Apart from skirting around some of Africa's more vicious conflicts, we have no firm route in mind.
And unlike those two thespians off the telly, we're also severely lacking in the support crew department: we have no medics, mechanics or aesthetically-pleasing researchers to sort out our visas. In short, it's two dickheads on uncomfortable vinyl seats in a hot tin-can.
As those thespians say in the movies: read it and weep.
