I might have known the Islandic guys would just walk it.

There could be niche in life for me. Holding the end of those ropes. Only the best big guys.....

I don't think so.

Did anyone see the fire. It looked as though the diff had gone up in flames. Or was it just fuel that had leaked on to the diff.
As usual foot to the floor wasn't the best way to do it. Some of the best climbs were done slowly and under control.
Others seemed to be foot to the floor and arms whirling like a dervish on the steering wheel.

Anyone been watching "A 4x4 is born" on Disco Home and Leisure? Only managed to catch the first 3 episodes. What was it like at the end?

It looked good but was slightly over the top with the rocker covers painted etc.
They didn't let you see it after it had been through the mud though.

The DVD of the series is due out soon. I've seen figures of around £15. www.play.com would more than likely sell it cheaper but they say they haven't considered stocking it. They do have some of his other stuff though. A plane is born was quite good.
