Santa obviously having legal issues - my guess is he's been copying Norway spruces a bit too accurately

That's just a normal winter's day here in the Highlands!

Your post made me think of this...

I will try and get there early with some stakes and hazard tape to mark off an area for us, we can co-ordinate it nearer the time

I'm planning to get it rolling roaded soon. When I fitted the zetec I didn't change the timing belt. I wanted to see it ran first. The belt looked ok. Anyway I bought a kit about 6 months back. Whipped it all apart ... drat wrong belt and idlers. Don't you just hate it when you start something now you can't finish for a few days. Or in my case probably 2 weeks as I'I working next weekend .. drat.

Ok so not my cleverest idea yet but was having withdrawal symptoms so it looked cold and damp but bright so there was a Soup n sweet in the next town over the hills only 15 miles each way so got rhubarb out and off we went, climbed out the back of the town heading over the cashmal to be met with gales sleet n a wee dust of snow. Not feeling so clever now eh. Never has some homemade soup tasted so good so suitably refreshed and the good folks laughing set of home in a shower of hail and roads of slush Got home and put rhubarb away I was cold damp and very invigorated Would I rather not of gone or taken the tintop no way Very gentle driving but boy it felt good oh happy days

Andy, You definitely win the prize for the best answer, really helpful thanks, I'll look into the leads with Rimmer Bros & the dizzy options. Thanks again.

I'll be on honeymoon

Do they do any other colour besides norway racing green ?

Hi hate to tell you Stu, but they do a whole range, you could have matching t-shirt, polo shirt and jacket, as well as the trainers! You'd be engulfed in it... I'll get my coat.

Hey Dave. Yes it's not got the best road manners that's true. Got to admit though, I'm actually finding that's part of its charm. It'll get worse too by the time it's lifted and with nobblies on

Agreed and recall exploring beer with Dave at least once!

Stu, you cant not do it !!

Heater? HEATER! "My God man, you have a woman's car!" *Capt, Rum* Blackadder II Episode 3...

Not quite hypothermia if you wrap up well it really isn't to bad but even through the winter months you can get some really nice days Trick is not to push hard or it will bite back Oh and yep it sure was a tad twitchy and just breathe on the steering but the choices 1 go out and brace the elements 2 go shopping do housework 3 don't do nowt and vegitate At least the memory of today keeps me scanning the forecast for the next opportunity

About 40 mpg mostly country lane 60 mph stuff. I don't measure it but it's not far off that I'll check my receipts somewhere if that helps
