Past a nice 110 looked ex-mod and got a wave i was in the green truckcab 90 sitting at the lights.
Just as i was about to pass the baricks the army boys pulled out in a lovely ambulance 110.
Then near the viaduct at newtongrange saw one of the Hire 4x4 110 broken down at the side of the road.
Also saw a red 90 vanside passing between the lanes in my street seen this befor im sure the boy lives locally.
Good to see so many fenders kicking about.

Hi Ginger TD5

I was off to a farm to survey the site for a wind turbine which I hope to sell.

However last week was up near Methlick in Aberdeenshire and was given a drive around a disused off road course. And was that spectacular especially coming down a gorse filled hill side to suddenly land in a bomb hole filled with water and slime etc. Pity that it is now disused it would have been a great course/ play area in years gone past, the farmer and his wife were past instructors when it was open.

This week I was in Aberdeenshire, again :D :D :D, and when surveying a farm was out in one of those trooper jeeps which got stuck due to the wrong tyres so had to get the Disco out to save the day ;) ;) ;) ;)

cycling home in daylight for the first time since discovering land rovers

spotted - a house with 7 x series landys(that i could see) in varying ages/marques and states of repair and disrepair. 

you have quite the job on your hands there fella - unless they were your personal stash of bits for the series 3(iirc) that looks to be a runner when the world turns to mad max !

...What looked like the Subaru owners Club getting a mass bollocking from Plod.

6 Subarus parked up outside Lochearnhead while Babylon waved a collective finger.

..... Exactly the same spot I got my 3 points last year :-(

Off to work in Thurso tomorrow till thursday and near Lybster there is a collection of Land Rovers inc Series 1 and others.

 There are lots of Disco 1's at the back of sheds that have been eaten by the dreaded tin worm underneath I suppose.

On Sunday I  saw a very smart black 110 at the Fascally Caravan Park. Light pod, winch, larger tyres,lift kit, roof tent and lots more. The owner was up visiting the owners of a caravan being towed by a silver P38 HSE

Spotted a wee 90 belonging to a turfing company. was toeing a trailer. What i liked most was his mod. Wrapped peices of turf around his sidesteps. Liked that bit of a laugh  ;D.
