Plans.

1. Try harder to fit in with civvies
2. Fit new mid tyres to spare alloys, refurb, paint, balance.
3. Sound deaden truck
4. Make wooden trim for rear windows and wooden panel above rear door for speakers
5. Mount, wire, new speakers and amp
6. Build storage box for boot with clips for fold down seats
7. Get a map and go green lacking more often.
8. Keep dreaming that I'll get a rifle and join a gun club (shooting I miss alot)

There's always more but they the top lol


1. Impossible mate, many just don't understand the simple concept of things such as being 5 mins early for everything, team work and hardly any of them will ever quite get/enjoy/join in NAKED BAR!! Yes, I was, and probably always will be an Infantryman haha


i almost made a friend a few weeks back but i got very angry when he would get naked with me walking back from the bar lol he hasnt spoken to me since

Having lost 3 stones last year I need to keep up the momentum and shed the next 4 stones. Other than that I could do to look for a new life partner one who understands the commitment needed to being a farmer. Maybe getting on with one will lead to the other. We will see. Rhubarb and custard let fly with their secret weapon.

Moved house on the 3rd December to a house that needs completely gutting and refitting, want to break the back of it and the garden this year but expect time, money and contractors will work against me. Did offer to sell either or both cars to speed things up but SWMBO says she wants to keep them. DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

^^^ Ditto, LR90XS2011

I moved house on 5th December (although we had owned both houses since August...it was nice to get rid of the £1400/month bridging loan!)

Planning poermission granted a couple of weeks ago, still working on Building Warrant (aka 'building control approval' outside Scotland).

Looks like it'll be a tough 2014 whilst we work through this

However it'll have a 6m x 7.5m garage Very Happy Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

No, mate, just a major refurb for me... Knocking-down 2 flat-roof extensions, and replacing them with new, bigger, pitched-roof ones... And a large garage Smile Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)
