Eleanor and Martin Gledhill of Forfar entered the Mongol Rally last year and drove 8,720 miles through Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan and Siberia to Mongolia.
2,000 miles of the journey were off road, but they had no 4x4 - just an eleven year old Fiat Punto to cross the Gobi desert ! Relying on sign language and diagrams, they had to ask for tows across land and water in underdeveloped territories.
Come to the Community Hall at Balkeerie Wednesday 19th March at 7.30 pm to hear Martin and Eleanor Gledhill’s adventures and see their images of the trans continental Mongol Rally and life in Ulaan Baatar. All Welcome Admission £2.
Eassie, Nevay and Kirkinch Community Association 50/50 sweepstake with a first prize of over £70 will be drawn at 7.30 pm, before the main event.
Find out about the Christina Noble Children’s Foundation rescue settlement which they encountered in Ulaan Baatar, Eleanor’s latest plans for Giant Cabbage growing contests and street parties in Scotland and practical ways to help the foundation to achieve its wish list.
