We'll be meeting at Builth Wells but we haven't discussed a time yet so one of us will be in touch nearer the time. Are you up for a few river crossings? Nothing to deep as I haven't got a snorkel and I don't think Danny has either so it might be interesting....

Yeah i'm up for river crossings. I've done strata in full flood before there's nothing on there that requires a snorkel although my fender does have one now. Deepest point was coming to about 4 inches below the air intake

I've got a snorkel mate hoping not to use it to much. If your up for it paul should be a good day out all welcome.

I love that video -
"This is going to get deep!"
"Too deep? we're going to have to go back!!"
"no."

Had so many similar exchanges.
"yes this is a bad idea, yes we shouldn't be doing this, yes we'll damage the car and waste money. no I'm not going to stop"

Hahaha that was the day I truly fell in love with my land rover never to parted as it never let me down when I really needed it. All I had to do was put some new headlights in and was sorted and dry the inside out of course.
