Being the last full day before the start of the Rally, Friday was bound to be a crazily busy day. I spent most of the day packing, chatting at various points with Dudy (Starck) and Louise (Angel) from Nefesh B' Nefesh to coordinate the afternoon activities.
The action really started around 4 in the afternoon when the car was delivered - a Rolls Royce Silver Wraith from 1948 (it too celebrating its 60th birthday this year) accompanied by Simon Winters - Chief Exec of the JNF and one of the main organisers of the Rally, and Graham - the mechanic who has been working around the clock to get the car in shape in time.
