Blasted computer, never does what you want, it's got a mind of it's own.
Do you use the cow dung to cook on Ken?

Get a good muck heap hot enough and you can boil a kettle in it, used to be used to grow pineapples on here in in victorian times'
I however, will be only cooking the spuds I grow in it.
This bit of Wiltshire might be behind the times but not not that far back

I drove to Oxford and back about 100 miles on the A40, saw a Lambretta, a Velo and a Triumph Bonny. Bit disappointng I was expecting to see many more.

well drive it day was a farce up here in midlands.......
went to stafford show from chesterfield and didn't see a solitary pre 90's (let alone 80's) vehicle on the road (other than bikes on trailers after the show)
Still, had a great day, especially seeing the reaction on norton owners club stand when i suggested the P11 was missing the matchless badge!
Back to drive/ride it day.... well most of us do it anyway, dont we?

We happy riders in the Hampshire & Wey Valley sections were out & about for the day,several Wey Valley & Hampshire riders met up early at Popham for breakfast then went for a country ramble at a leisurely pace to end up at the West Meon pub for lunch,where they were joined by another Hampshire/Wey Valley rider for tea & tiffin.
Down our neck of the woods it was a gorgeous riding day,dry,sunny & fresh but not cold.It was the first time we have been able to sit outside & enjoy lunch this year.
Lovely.
