Welcome to lz, Dylan!

Should be a bit drier in Wilts than on the Emerald Isle. What sort of landy yer got, then? And any pics?

Funny you should mention that, it's been rainin all day here!
Ive myself an '71 88' Diesel pickup thats somewhere between a 2a and a 3. Still trying to figure all the work thats been done to it by the previous 11 owners!

Thats a nice looking series. Not too many silly mods! Most that age tend to be bitsas, nothing to worry about.

It may be raining in Wilts today, but it will probably rain in Ireland for 3 months without stopping! In the West, at least. been there quite a few times, and I lived in Cornwall for 25 years, similar West facing coastal climate!

Hi Dylan353!
I'm an Irishman living in the UK too...well, I'm both but have an Irish passport too! And a Defender in Galway Green so that helps!!! I tried to avoid the rain by moving from Antrim to Wiltshire and now live in Sussex where it's lovely.
In Antrim we used to say "if you can't see the lough, it's raining. If you can see the lough...it's going to rain!"

I'm from Cork myself so we had the saying 'ah summer, at least the rain will be warmer', thankfully its not so bad here, I should know im out in it everyday!

Someone asked a Cork man if it rained much in Cork. He replied, Oh No, almost never. The questioner pointed up at the big black clouds in the sky, and asked what they were. The Cork man replied, Just the empties coming over from Kerry!
