I'm leaving at 6:00 in the morning (not looking to 600 miles and 10 hours of driving, except maybe the last bit) heading up to Carter Country...maybe after a masterclass I'll finally learn how to take a decent landscape shot rolleyes

See y'all in a week wavey

I thought it was YOU that put the sugar in the tank after you saw me drive the Landy!

I just heard from Aston - it was a brake 'issue' rolleyes

I'm in Bergen at the moment (west coast of Norway). I have, quite honestly, never known rain like it. This place is famous for being rainy. Anyhow, even the locals said it was extreme; now that's rain!!!!

None of this wimpy Scottish stuff hehe
