2010 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Santorini Black

yes it was a very entertaining nights camping...... It was a bit posh with all the wine bottles and stainless steel goblats (I think there were a few sore heads in the morning)

We also found that the fire was not hot enough to melt glass!

When Honker say we would make Ray Mears eyes weep! he means from smoke in the eyes!

But it did however get windy at 6 am.... not good for people in roof tents

Oh and has anyone mentioned the people starting their engines at 5 am

I think thats it. Russell

2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SVX Station Wagon Santorini Black

update from Andy ...

"thanks a lot for hospitality! Nice photograph! Yes was a funny time despite I´m shure I haven’t understood all your jokes.

))))))))

I´ll hope I find the time to join the forum later on. Unfortunately they didn’t give me the price for the furthest coming car. A bloody

from Scotland claimed that he did a 30 miles more than me.

(((

Take care!

I really made it to join you at the forum. BPman has already submitted my greetings. Again: Thank you for the funny evening (with all this wee business

), with the lovely lady J. (@landlord: no, I wasn´t it) and all you volks.

I hope we meet at 2013 London-Brighton run at latest (or here at defender2.net).

Who ever will be passing Duesseldorf and needs a stop for a coffee, for a night (bring beer) or for a week (bring some beer and your girlfriend) is welcome.

Take care.

Green Shadow it's great you made it to the forum. Lady J (@landlord) says hi and thought you were the best dressed Land Rover owner at L2B....

You can always rely on the Europeans to show us how it's done

That was a good trick

It was very good to meet you Andy and I doubt the night would have been the same without you.
And it's good to see you have joined. Russell
