How long do you think it will take to do the route Dan. We need to be home for Maci by 5pm. Would it be possible to meet at 10am. How would everyone else feel about that

I'm guessing about 4 maybe 5 hours ending up around Ely, so you know roughly how long it'll take u to get back home. 10 isn't too far from the realms of possibility so as long as everyone else is OK that's fine with me.

please bring tools, spares and something to shield my freckly skin from the burning induced by the disapproving looks that my Mrs will give me as yet again the truck is bust....

Sorry I didn't get any pics but thanks Dan for a great day. Even if you did break down before you even left home lol. Some nice lanes and country side. Only Dan could get stuck in a hole smaller than some in my lawn. Nice to meet explorer. Hope you got home ok with the trooper that couldn't make it mind up if it wants to run or not. Love the Arabic sticker needs to be in letters about an inch tall ;-)
The only other casualty of the day was guess who.....you got it . Dan the man. Destroyed the manual hub. Killed his winch. Then in the process of being recovered, mangled the winch mount and chassis rails omg.
Maria did get some pics n vids so will try to upload them later
