Mick, you and your boy are welcome to a day's tope fishing. If you remember to bring beer that is

For god's sake Lorryman - any chance of a few photos of your surroundings?
I'm familiar with the Mull of Kintyre not far from you (over the water), but never been to Drummore. Beautifull part of the world.  |

Often go to the Mull to fish. launch the big boat from Dunstaffnage marina near Oban and motor over to the south of Mull to fish for Pollock. Water is crystal clear so you can see the fish leave the kelp and go for your lure, 10 pounder average and they put up a good fight racing back to the kelp
Will post pics once I have gone for the small boat, did you know Luce Bay is a cluster bomb range? Which means no commercial fishing boats are allowed to fish in case they drag up unexploded cluster munitions. meaning excellent fishing for us recreational sea anglers |

Lucky *%$#!
Sounds great mate, I've only been up to Scotland once properly and it was the best caravanning holiday I've had. We took the little 12' van up  Very envious, Isle of Mull has to be one of the quietest places in the UK. Good fishing Brian

Willy, those lanes look great. I'd never bothered with North Yorks, spent most of my time in the Lakes, Derbyshire, and Wales. Looks like I need to rethink that and do a bit of research!

Fitted a new set of wiper blades. I especially like the rear wiper blade anti-theft device - having to remove the spare wheel was a bit of a blag!

Just a standard General Grabber on a Boost alloy... Can't swing the wiper arm out enough to remove the blade though while it's still attached though. Unless there's a knack to it which I've not sussed out.... |

Hmm, don't remember it being that bad. Although, last tike I replaced the wiper blade the spare wheel was in the boot. Ben

Whilst returning from an early morning visit to the Buckingham branch of Vandal Sassoon to have the Monkey Mullett tended to, I may have (just slightly mind) entered an LH hairpin a bit quick and drifted a smidge over the centre lines.....
Think the chap coming the other way in the swanky Bright Orange Porsche 911 variant (no idea what it would be) may have muckied his chinos. Still no harm done fortunately. Anyhow....what a silly colour to paint a Porsche (IMHO)... everyone knows that there is only one vehicle on the plant that looks good in Orange (or indeed any colour for that matter) Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless. |

You never know SHE may have been a fellow primate - an orangutan
 Imagine one of those with a Vandal Sassoon perm - steady!! Keep to your own species! |
