Dry and cold down here Iain. Looks like it could get quite sunny later. We're both full of cold today So don't laugh if we're seen driving top up at some point today

See you later

BTW Bringing a friend with a Scooby P1.

A top day out, the weather held for us, so the roads were nice and dry, although the jocks had a bit of dampness just to make the cowpats on the road that bit slippier

Wherever we go, these two seem to follow us


Kielder Water




They had a space ready prepared for Mark in his Scooby


Post lunch vtecing






How aggressive was that Scoob as it appeared in your mirrors?


Trying to keep up (and failing )


Colin removing airbox lid




Parked up to discuss Euan's lack of fuel stop provision

Just back and as usual totally knackered.
Great day out with some reasonbly fast bits

Thanks for the routes Euan. We had to cut a bit of the morning run out to make sure we got to BB on time. We then had to sit for 45 minutes for the NE mob. Typical!

Nice to meet Shiskine. A worthy addition to the ranks of the Jocks
Good intro to Jockmeets for him. Sheep, pheasants by the bucketload and cows. The cowpats certainly made the road slippy

Left my camera in the car but didn't get many shots anyway.

We were going to come up the A68 but couldn't resist the kielder route, then got stuck behind a Corsa for 10 miles
