Anyone green laning in the island? I was walking around following the O/S maps and was surprised by the number of + symbols I was seeing. Are these still open, or (more likely) have they closed since time of print? Cant believe the tennison ridge is still an open boat... Plus of course...

Ack - sorry take it back - just actually opened my eyes, and looked - and realise that the bit that goes over / under the A34 is dashes, not pluses... Sorry, my bad for getting all excited... Ill stick with your plan!

If the ones next to Bussock wood are open and in condition too, surely meeting in the chievley services would be easier, then move on out of the services access road down to Snelsmore farm under a bridge(*), up to bussock wood, (possibly) radnall, back down over what looks like that * bridge...

A friend's threatening to take us out over some north downs stuff, but not til the beginning of april.... (as if I can wait that long)

Assuming this is serious (i never can tell with forums!) I'm more than interested in some surrey driving.

I'm on lancaster at the moment - £4xx something. I was surprised when they asked "how many seats", and I told them nine, and for a moment it was "I dont think we insure 9 seaters...." I was at the other end of the phone like "bleargh?" they then came back and said yes after two minutes pause...

Ouch...quote of 609, i dont think footman james like my area you know. on the plus side, they only wanted 740 for me and the missus (provisional license!)

That's what I figured, but didn't want to go asking to receive a horrified reply that would then tar me as an 'unworthy'. I'll ask woodlands directly for a start. But then figuring where to get some basics and practise in before then...

Thanks, all nice and clear. Now i just have to get to actually do it.

This may sound like a dumbish question with a very obvious answer of either "of course" or "of course not" Are there (obviously private) places that welcome non-road-drivers ? I.e. to get to (and back) most places you'll clearly need a licensed insured driver, but once there is it that...

'96 110. Differential Lock indicator doesnt come on. Could be really simply eleccy fault, or something vaguely serious, or me simply being a numpty following the diff engage instructions.... Checking the indicator bulb itself will be relatively easy, I'm hoping, once i dig out the pages...

greetings from Sutton :South london / Surrey border Finally purchased a defender (110 county station wagon) having looked at them for months on end, and telling myself "you dont need one, you dont need one" Looking around, and just starting to find all this community around. Nice. Was...

Hi y'all new owner... 110 county station wagon Just wanting to double check there were no "hidden" spaces that things might be stored that I hadn't come across yet... o) Space next to battery under passenger front seat o) Space under rear seats, good for long jacks etc.. Any more?
