Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Pics are uploading to photobucket now. I stopped off at the pub on the way home, hence the late sign in. Great day, even if I wasnt driving (Thanks Cluie!). Made a change from leading and opening gates on my ownsome.

Good to meet Nitro finally. Nothing extreme today, maybe a couple of extra scratches but nothing broken I hope, apart from finding a frontera air filter on Splashy Lane (Not one of ours I swear) and a bit of a Land Rover.

Hate to say it folks but we had a Land Rover in tow. Fair play to the machine and the driver it never faltered once ;-)

Weather was good for the most part, a little cold and it started lashing down with rain towards the end of the day and the drive home was miserable altho it dried up just before I got to the pub ;-)

Pics tomoz folks :D :D :D
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

Looking good.

No one seems to have mentioned the cold - was it a little warmer (that last few laning trips I've done were bloomin freezing)

Oh, and that rock looks familiar :D
