Hello turbo, martyn and muds. Hope you all had a good christmas, i spent ine out here working and dreaming of my next land rover! Home for a week at the beginning of the month so might spend it visiting a few. Seen a disco 2 i like in penryn and might speak to the land rover dealer and see what the numbers are on a puma but I think I really am going to be looking for a ninety for a few reasons. hope you are all safe and well!

Hi MF , glad to see you're still in search of a landy , get another defender , you know you want to really hopefully see you when you're back this way

Yeah, i miss the series so much! I am still in contact with the new owner and have told him if he doesnt get on with it i will buy it back

Why didnt someone warn me this would happen. In all seriousness, yes a defender is on the cards next, we are still looking for a small holding and i am on the lookout for a job at home still.

I might struggle for time but it would be nice to say hello.

Yep , just hoping the weather will be lovely like today , fingers crossed .
TM can you give us a meeting point/time ?

9am or shortly thereafter at the farm would be good. Coffee an cake for those that want it before we set out.

We walked one of the Western lanes yesterday, the others one of us have driven quite recently. Forecast conditions are near perfect, no rain, light overcast, 10-11C. Been dry for over a week so ground condition is very good too.

Look forward to seeing you all then, and nice to see Monkfish again too! :tea::tea:

Hope yu are feeling better now, Mart, Bet that twisty coast road back to St Ives didn't help your stomach settle down!

What a great little pootle out! A few little lanes, some country roads that are almost more challenging than the lanes, and great views land and sea
Thanks to all of you for being great company and great landy people, delicious lunch too, bit different to some of the places we have been, more haute cuisine and less roadside diner!
We thought R and Es kids were the best behaved kids we have ever met, they are a credit to you.
Only downside was Marts stomach upset, feel for him those lanes were pretty bouncy.

A few pics, more to follow when they are sorted

Fantastic day out guys n gals , love tha Bottallack lane , will defo be heading down there again , and the white cross to Trencrom too. Fabulous to be down in the real " wild " Ciornwall , and the Gurnards Head lunch was just the icing on the cake. Will load up some phots tomorrow when I've cranked up the Mac.
Hope you're feeling better Mart.

Then finally the camera died and I didn't get photos of the hilly bits we did
or the roaring log fire and lovely cosy pub lunch ....
....which means we'll have to do it all again ..SOON ..
