Southern Shandy Report: Home with medicine....230 miles/4hrs 15 mins driving time.Slight overheat on way back,rad needs cleaning better.
Handbrake non-existant,footbrakes require a bit of TLC...
Absoutely Cracking Weekend,many thanks to Helen & Rick for organizing it all.
It was a great pleasure to spend a couple of days with people from all over the country,different jobs,outlooks,backgrounds,etc:
With a common bond,mindset and a love of ALCAHOL offroading...
Real pleasure meeting you all properly and spending time with youse......CRACKING....
A little bit of "Buildwas 2009" has come back to East Sussex with me,In fact a lot of Buildwas has come back with me,mostly the grey clayey variety
Thanks again to all for making it a great weekend..
