MORNING MADNESS

At The 27 Club Apartment, we chatted about our night out while the four of us took turns to use the solitary shower. The problem was, Winehouse dropped the bomb and we had to temporarily make an exclusion zone around the bathroom. The military were called in, fans were switched on and the area was evacuated.

We had a nice breakfast at The Lourve, a traditional restaurant in the centre of Prague.

IT’S THE FINAL AUSFAHRT

The Cult of Ausfahrt continued unabated; we had a right good laugh.

Realising that we had to quickly get our stuff packed and exit the apartment, we rushed to get everything together. Grabbed taxi to Prague airport. In true 27 Club Trippers style, we arrived at the WRONG airport terminal – proving that with none of us driving, we still get lost.

At check-in, Cobain paid the wrath of the budget airlines when you turn up with a bag that it too large. However, his £25 charge wasn’t as bad as some unfortunate woman ahead of us in the boarding queue, who was hit with a £52 (€60) charge for a large-bag-just-before-boarding offence.

Winehouse of the Day: (Back in the UK!) Upon leaving the airplane, and observing it was raining, Winehouse spun around to Morrison immediately behind him, made a face and cried out “Yyyeeeaeuuuugghhhhh!”. Just one problem: Morrison was no longer behind him, instead it was some random dude being exposed to Winehouse’s projectile vomit weather reactions.

HOTEL

Before leaving the hotel, we spotted a spotty youth with The Doors on his t-shirt. Morrison was jubilant that the youth of today are into his 60′s music rather than the modern jingle-jangle bingo-bangle.

At the hotel, Winehouse and Cobain found a hotel worker who had a mate of a mate who had a cousin who’s dog’s owner’s brother likes to take dodgy bangers. We took a phone number, as the guy was not about.

APARTMENT

We drove to The 27 Club Apartment, in centre of Prague next to Old Town Square. A group trip to Tesco ensued, feels just like home.

FREE CAR!

We asked people to take our car. For free! No-one that we asked was remotely interested. Most people don’t even speak English.

We joked that we should contact “We Buy Any Car Dot Com”… as simply no-one wanted our car.

We drove to parking near-ish to Prague Castle in very sunny weather and got some team photos taken in the castle grounds.

On the way downhill from Prague Castle, Hendrix further promoted the ausfahrt, this time by asking tourists “Excuse me, where is the nearest ausfahrt?”. Morrison was doubled up over laughing. Then Hendrix nipped into a shop: “Hi!…Ausfahrt…?”

BREAKTHROUGH

Outside a café, whilst engaging in walk-by wi-fi theft, Morrison came across a forum post about some Czech mechanic who likes to take UK banger cars. Morrison called him and… a breakthrough! He will take it off our hands… but his contact is leaving the garage “soon”.

We then competed in the final time-pressured Motoscape challenge. Get to the target destination within 15 minutes (Google Maps said 11 minutes away), and deliver the car to the bloke.

After one of our trademark wrong turns, we reached the mechanic’s garage.

Morrison went to get a cheap almost worthless pair of plastic joke sunglasses in the car. In doing so, he temporarily lost his very valuable proper sunglasses! They fell out his pocket into some darkened recess of the car, then five minutes of panic. Ironic.

Next, we sorted out documents for the mechanics to take ownership of the car.

PARTY TIME

We celebrated getting well shot of our car by drinking shots of Absolut vodka with Cherry Coke back at The 27 Club Apartment. We chilled with some of our hit music on our portable speakers (rescued from the car).

Some Morrison stuff whilst we listened to The End Jim Morrison quotes. We headed out on the town.

Winehouse of the Day: having spent £3.50 on most expensive salsa dip ever, Winehouse spilt 50p worth of it on the table when opening it!
