Yes, I'm out with the Land Rover series 2 Club, Central Shires area. We are having a road run starting at the Super Sausage Cafe on the A5 at Paulsbury for breakfast. Then finishing at Stoke Bruerne Canal Museum for a lunch and a beer or two. I'm not driving on the day as my Land Rover is off the road for an engine conversion. So, I'm getting a ride with a mate in his Series 2A for the day. That means I can drink a lot more and get dropped off at home... Sounds like I'll be having a great day. _________________ Series 3 1972 LWB Truck Cab Pick Up. My daily drive. |

Provided this year's MOT inspection doesn't thwart our plans, we'll be out and about in Derbys/Notts/Lincs or S. Yorks. _________________ David

ummmmmmmm it's usually late morning kind of thing, say 10-10.30 onwards, with most entrants having departed back to the start point by 1pm or thereabouts.

I went out with the Land Rover Series 2 club.
Spotted this Magnet in the car park.

Had a plan but then SHMBO had a conflicting appointment pop up on Saturday so took Jowett out for its first run of the year to local attraction for lunch. Ran well popping along at a comfortable 45MPH on reasonably flat stretches. Had lunch and then would it start - NO! - I had a spark and fuel (about all this is needed in the pre-electronics-screwing-things-up era), but nothing happened. Got recovered. Yet to determine if spark and fuel are occurring at about the right time. |
