wonder how the mud got there.......!!!!!

Still, must be a friendly chap, some testers will reject it for
testing if it is in the state you got it into!

Would have been good to have tried it though with that nice shiny TDV6
Disco 3.......

On the campsite and on the road, yes. She didn't do the offroad bit,
though. When I asked her why, she said something about not being ready for
the arrival just yet.

Missed a mega bit of history for the group, though - Twins born in a 101
ambi while being recovered by a P38.

Thanks, now sod off would you.

Actually, I've told her I'll do it. I dunno why people don't like
cold showers of putting the kettle on for washing - kids of today are
kin lucky to know what hot water is IMO - back in the war...

I'm going for a new water tank behind the back axle - with two
chambers - insulated from each other. The 'hot' one will be heated by
a Jag oil cooler Lee D put me onto some time ago on eBay, plus an
12/220v immersion heater Kevin (6x6 builder) mentioned.

The space available won't give huge capacity, but then again, we don't
really need it (cue my rant on water waste etc...)

Chap up the road does it, real nice bloke, we always take our vehicles
there, he knows they never go for the test without being gone through.

yes, her and dawn spent ages discussing where car seats could be
fitted and then how best to fit bunk beds to an ambi.

Must be something about 101's and pregnancy. Tim's wife fell pregnant
not long after getting burrt, Martins wife fell pregnant not long
after getting theirs, and now my wife.....

I know one couple who have been trying for over 3 years, wonder if I
can sell them burrt......

i'll not rub salt in the wound by mentioning the 7 excellent beers we
tried at the end of the tour, or the fact that you could buy the stuff
by the crate.....

build a frame similar to lee's that he used for the spare on the front
of his. Instead, adapt it so the motorbike sits there instead of the
spare....
