You can go off people, you know . . . Aren't you two missing the cold, rainy, wind-torn winter in good old Britain :?:

No snow in ciderland :D

So I dodged the showers to give the elan a wash (sort of self-defeating, I suppose!), and then took it for a roof down 'blow dry' :burnout: :D

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

It snowed here this morning, too, half way between Casa GeoffSmith and Domaine Epipete. The good news is it turned to heavy rain pretty quickly :-D

You've been done Geoffos. I've just picked up a kilo of strawbs in Lidl, Hereford for under £2. And I got a smile !

The best laugh I had today was that I got you 2 x 100g packets of Berwick Cockles to give you at Sy's bash tomorrow. And then I learned you wont be in the Costa del Redditch. Guess I'll have to share the spoils with other LEC'rs :lol: :lol:

PS There are some things in Britain that are better than being in Tossa Me'Off in Spain. And Berwick Cockles are one of them :poke:
