I went over to AntonyJ's stomping ground this afternoon. Took the scenic route rather than the A50 and used half a tank just squirting down the road for the fun of it.
Meir tunnel eh Antony cloud9

Came back home in the dark with the roof down and the Mrs not even complaining. Although she does think I'm a bit of a nut after coming through the tunnels and giving it some hehe

AND - A BIG BONUS MY HEATER WORKS!!!!!

There's a ploughing competition local to us tomorrow, so I'll be out in the Land Rover to go over and have a watch. Bloody hell, I'm in heaven.
Wonder how I clogged it scratchchinlaugh

I was out allday yesterday......

Car was not so good, it had lost 25bhp after I got a local garage to change the manifold gaskets (no way was I getting my hands dirty) and was not free reving.....

At lunch time in a Shell Garage... I popped the bonnet whilst eating a sandwich... checked everything that may have been touched and found a small pipe hanging loose..... the one from the plenum to flying saucer....

reconected it..... wow car back to norm flying up the rev counter.... hunting down anything that was game for fun.

:grin: who would think a pipe a few mm thick could give so much please hehe

Well I've been out and about. My face is hot, my baldy nut feels tender, but boy have I had a good afternoon. Nothing special just a gentle drive around County Durham. Starmist Blue Griff, roof off. Does it get any better?

I'm sorry to burst anyones bubble, but I've had the Land Rover 14 years now and it will be with me for life. I'm not sure I can say that about the TVR though.

How can you call me a loony to enjoy such a slice of English country life tongue out

And now I'm about to sit down and watch ten minutes of Antiques Roadshow before sitting down with Deb and a couple of friends to a nice rib of beef and Yorkshire puddings dinner, closely followed by Blackberry and Apple crumble and custard.

England. Most of the time I hate it but today it is cloud9

You looked different at the Growl. Though the green polo, shades and cap kinda suit you.
