Exclamation Todays Drive Out (pics):- Rain doesn't stop play

Sorry to all those that had to cut the hedge or paint the bedroom, but I had the whole afternoon to kill so despite the gloom just got out amongst it

Car was dirty (& got dirtier), weather was setting in, no chance of getting the top down but who cares, the fun can continue through the winter, its just a different kind of fun

So for no other reason than to share my smiles, here's some of todays adventures.

1 point for recognising the location, 3 points for posting a picture of your car in the same spot! There are a couple of clues.....



Sheep were just part of the fun, also had to give way to Pheasant and Grouse and squirals!


The high point - Literally. I got wet, quickly~!





Forgot to make my way home before it got dark, whoops.

Blimey! 7 points plus bonus points for the other S's!

I was going to say that these roads are great on your own but probably not suitable for meets - looks like that is not true!

Was that a North Wales Meet? Which year was it?

Elan Valley and like that at Ladybower Peak District one of the many dams used by 617 squadron practising for the famous Rhur dams raid.

Loved the picts. cheered up a tedious day doing 'domestic jobs'.

Note - unless it is raining I don't do erections ( of hood )

Bit far for me to run down to copy the piccies much as I'd like to, the sun was out here today so it was top down and shades on.
