That's an impressive Sport Ryan , And She sounds mental screaming into the Ford ..
I'm glad you had a good time and worked out what/where the problem leak was.

Postby sugarbabe1976 on Thu Feb 01, 2007 8:58 pm

well Guys
As Sherman has been baned from the quarry well playing in it anyway.

I thought about organising the fording run in full this time in a few weeks time so if anyone fancys it let me know which day is best Sat or Sun and we will sort a date to suite everyone!!

I take it you all saw the result of the Sunday I can't believe that piccy of Sherman on the back of the RAC wagon was posted!!#
