New alternator, water pump, drive belt, air filter, oil filter, diesel filter, various gaskets and bit n bobs ... I didn't do any of it but I did provide coffee. :D

:eek: Wash your mouth out immediately!!!!!! Laura's feelings are very hurt by that comment ... she knows she is a person with tyres. :p

I agree with the people who have suggested warm boots as a cheap and easy alternative to increasing the heating. Muck boots are great, sheepskin insoles work wonders and the Extra warm thermal socks from Sealskinz will make your feet toastie warm, even in a Series. :)

:D Thanks! :D ... I think! :p

My 1980s pre Defender 110 is warm and cosy, even when driving at -10 the other night ... thanks to my sheepskin flying jacket and sheepskin gloves. :p

I get waves from Series and Fender drivers and will wave to them first if I'm awake enough but it's never occurred to me to wave at a Disco. Ooops, sorry guys. :doh: I am definitely not going to start waving at Freelanders though ... you have to draw the line somewhere. :p

That does sound pretty hellish and I like them! :eek:

I hardly ever pass a horse on the road ... not sure if that's because I'm always stuck in work when they're on the road or because I'm not going fast enough to overtake ... :doh:

My 110 doesn't go anywhere near that fast so I have a far more relaxed attitude to life. :p

Sorry guys, I haven't worn a suit yet this week and didn't think anyone would want to see a pic of thick tights and Ugg boots! I posted this one on the "pin up" thread earlier, so I'll put it here too ... I'm showing knees, even if I'm not wearing a skirt! :D

They are gorgeous! I think both the youngsters are going to do very well. :) You're right, they are breeding bigger horses in both breeds and in this financial climate there are some Iberian bargains to be had, although there are still some seriously overpriced ones about ... just as with...

So I'm told. I warn them of that on a regular basis. ;)

Your horses sound lovely. :) Sorry for the change of topic btw boys, normal Landy talk will resume soon. :p This is my PRE mare, she is British bred. My DHP gelding (who is on the left and actually on loan from a friend) and Welsh Section C mare (on right) And my Luso mare, who I imported.

Hi! :) I've got 4 horses, well 2 horses ( a Lusitano and a purebred Spanish) and 2 ponies (Welsh C and Dartmoor Hill Pony). I only hack and have the occasional lesson at the moment but would like to do a few stressage and little jumpy comps at some point. All are grass kept and the field is...

:lol: I'm in the SW Midlands, 5'4", previously married but now with a lovely man who is highly amused that I am driving a Landy but has so far fixed all the little problems she has had. :D You wouldn't be so quick to ask me to cook for you if you'd actually experienced my cooking. :eek:
