Out for a walk with Sid











Well yesterday actually, I put the boots etc on, and took Sid the Jack Russell off for a walk. This one in fact cos its virtually right on my doorstep http://www.wrexham.gov.uk/english/le...tes/route5.htm




In just over 2 hours I only met 3 others coming the other way, (quite freindly for trampers )Its strange what you find out there though I mean we're nowhere neer the sea!!!

2" lift on Landrover discovery

This afternoon I fitted with the help of my mates and students at work a TJM XGS susspension kit to my Discovery 'Betsy'.

The gear looks very well made and its also in pretty yellow to match her other underwear (steering guard) Lol pics to follow.

Steves shiney Disco is now looking a bit more like a greenlaner (except for the PINK!!! stickers).

so maybe a few pics of that aswell.



Married life still brill, and I'm still smiling most of the time. Kids are doing ok but growing all the time and with it costing a fortune cos they're GIRLS.

More to follow soon, well maybe!!!
