Yes, no problem with doing a bit of posing in my meadow and I'm not fussy about which type of Land Rover you come in.

However, only those who have a Def2 forum identity and a posting history will be invited.

Can't be too careful these days........

Ought to add that a friend has just told me of a green lane locally that has been cleared of scratchy stuff by the Council, so at least that one should be OK for those who value their paintwork!

It really could be Nigel!! Did you manage to find a cross bar to fit the hole spacing?

Possible timetable:

Mid-day to 2pm.

In the village. to give time to meet up, eat, drink etc.

2pm, come to mine for photographs, if desired.

Then study OS maps for some (more?!) greenlaning, and go for it....

As for local lane knowledge, I do know them but due to my greenlaning partner having a severe illness in his family, we haven't been out this summer. The lanes are usually passable, but side growth might be an issue- unless someone knows better.

I'll be in the village in this vehicle from midday :

Will probably pop home for lunch about 1-sh and come back at 2 to see what people want to do.

How does this sound?
