...Why I moved all the way up to the north of Scotland. Went playing out today, had a look at some track's I will be driving tommorrow. Then took a drive up the south side of Loch Ness, above Loch Tarff. Two inches of snow on the road (much deeper in surrounding fields) and nearing blizzard conditions. Bloomin' magic. :lol:  :lol:  Sadly no photo's as I didn't have the camera with me. I LOVE living here!!! \:D/  \:D/  \:D/
Cheers, Karl..


Listen mate, you've more chance of a go on the wife than you have of a go in my truck.

Can't be bad.
At least it'll be a lot tidier in what passes for a town up there than it is in Wakefield.

I'll ask my friends round on Park Road*(?) to keep an eye on how your house changes when the new buyers move in.

Get's better, here are some photo's of todays off road shenanigans with Colin (highlander) If you look closely in the background of the first pic you can see a herd of deer. You have to squint a bit coz the res of the pic is rubbish.
Cheers, Karl..


Listen mate, you've more chance of a go on the wife than you have of a go in my truck.

I see Gonzo's still looking after you.

You'd have loved Derbys yesterday in the rain. One benefit is we only met up with 1 rambler. No deer though.

Faster faster faster.......

Lizzy hates off roading now.
I'll have to reassimilate her. The new screen and DVD might do the trick.
