Same here, it's depressing! Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades.

I'm actually working on installing an outside mixer tap (with cold and hot water), so that I can wash the hound without freezing her and myself. I appreciate that this is a first world problem but the multiple bucket method (which rapidly become the many muddy buckets trial) got tiring about a month ago. Rolling Eyes

...and the deluge continues.

I think my back garden has turned into a marsh. Rolling Eyes

So much for 'tempeatures dropping and chance of snow' that I kept hearing about nearing the end of the week.

Switzerland 2009 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SVX Station Wagon Santorini Black
Well, winter finally seems to be coming. After having been extremely mild until yesterday (12°C here in Geneva yesterday), but with huge amounts of rain in the previous week, I guess our long standing drought is broken now, everything is sodden, but we luckily have a lake available which empties into the Rhone river, so we do not have anything like below....

But temps are going to seriously drop here into low single digits for the highs and pretty strong frost at night for at least the next two weeks. Continuing rain will turn into snow later this week, also down here by the lake. Good for those having a skiing vacation coming up. Thumbs Up Bad for my fire wood supply. Sad And the SVX Legend will stay put for a while longer now, I see the gritters here already being readied with that nasty white stuff they will liberally spread. Rolling Eyes

Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.
