ill carry on with the original but at a different pace, the new one is a camel trophy replica

that it's well wobbly when top heavy but I shouldn't worry about that,

there's a spade too so will manage Cannock at a push

three out of four spots working, FIRST TIME EVER, never been wired in 20 years!! one bulb needs replacing , the only bulb Halfords dont stock i reckon H2 . fogs tomorrow

oh yeah.. while i think about it, im getting a simmering of heat out of the driver side foot vent and cold air out of the passenger side.. any ideas why the difference anyone

i've learned buying a simple thing like a bulb from a shop for a spot lamp isnt easy... online shopping is great but i feel its taking away from the high street big time

I always find terrestrial shopping a bit of a disappointment these days. They've never got the size or colour I want, or it doesn't come with the right fittings on it, or it's expensive compared to the internet. That's true whether it's a thing for the Land Rover, a domestic appliance or an item of clothing. Plus the time you waste struggling through the huddled masses between shops or waiting in queues.

agree

today I've learned the sunroof leaks on Humpy.. well it would woudn't it/

winch motor is bust

Looking on the bright side at least you've got something to tow your other one to vosa

today i discovered not to overlook the less than obvious.. (relay not bulb issue)

HOW SATISFYING A WORKING WINCH CAN BE

there are hidden fuses under the passenger seat on Humpy

I've learned going for a drive on a day like today around the Staffordshire Moorlands stopping for a Kellly Kettle coffee by the River Manifold doing some accidental off roading, and then told to come back and finish the route properly by one of the farmers after lots and lots of extreme reversing ending with a long chat with some radio ams up on Flash Moor, i just happened to have my old searanger radio with me, is a bloody good way to spend a Sunday.

letting my daughter play in the land rover in the back field is why I need a winch bumper and fencing tools...

getting your name changed here is too much like hard work, about to bow out fellas,
