@ Warren - great shot!
Was lunch time when we were there, but watched it get dark and the lighthouse flashing from the camp site later on! Shame Flamborough itself seems a bit run down, but had a good pint of Barnsley Bitter at the Rose and Crown and a nice plate of Scampi and Chips, washed down with a pint of Bombardier at the Ship Inn.  (all after a 5 miles cliff top walk, so well deserved!) Our blog - http://landytravels.com/

Cheers
It was a few months back when I was last there. Jess had just broken her arm and was going insane not being able to do anything, so went for a drive and ended up there. Unfortunately everywhere was closed when we got there, but had a good wander round and waited for the lighthouse to do its thing. We never went into Flamborough itself. Just down to the lighthouse. A nice quiet and warm chilled out evening. Scooted up the east coast to Whitby for fish and chips... It'd have been rude not to, although it was quite late by the time we'd got home ha |

Spent the majority of today cleaning, polishing and sealing my new Boost alloys (delivery mileage take-offs) ready for new tyres next week. Thought it was worth doing whilst they had no tyres on, hopefully they will stay looking smart a little longer and it's much easier to do with the wheels off.
3 coats of wax and 3 coats of sealant later . . . Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green |

Having passed its MOT this week and with some tax stuck to the screen I drove my 110 on the road for the first time. Will be going to my workshop in the morning to finish (ok improve her more !), as only one seat, air gaps, no central locking and not working electric windows plus lack of roll cage means theres a lot more to do !

SAT: I'm finally able to get the 110 in and out of the garage without help from MrsBPMan, yes, new garage door arrived and fitted. Even did the tennis ball thing.
Took the 110 out for a run around in the sun, much more comfortable without the MM seat covers. SUN: off to the Salisbury plains for a scout about with DJH and BigRuss, it's been a few weeks since we've been out there. |

250 mile round trip to collect a Sankey wide track yesterday, then a couple of hours scratching my head whilst wiring in a civvie 13 pin plug and swapping the bulbs for 12v ones. Going to attack it with the jet washer today. Darren

had a great day on the plains with BigRuss and DJ Hutton ... did some new tracks as well as old favorites. Big thanks to DJ for making the spicy burgers and Russ for the pork kebabs.
quite dry out there today - intersting sights included a kestrel and a drowning vitara 
quote of the day was from the vitara owner: "They said I should have bought a land rover" |

Anyone thinking about it, all I can say is do it. _______________________________ Puma Defender 90 |
