hope everyone enjoyed that one

Some roads I'd never driven before , & others where it was my 1st chance to drive them without a nissna micra blocking the way ... not sure how many miles we did , but the front of teh car is well & truly splattered with bugs ( some german ones still on there too

)

1/2 way stop, itching to get off & find the chip shop

can you guess who's side order this was

( pickled onions in the pot )

Just back from a spirited drive out with James and co . Felt really good to be back in the saddle . It's been a while . The '12 is running quite well now and managed to keep up for the most part . Good to see everyone again .

Cheers all .

Apologies for the size of the first pic , not sure what happened there

And yes , I like a pickled onion with my can of pop

An enjoyable drive and plenty of roads I'd never been on and had no idea where I was some of the time

Not quite as smooth as the German roads I was on last week and the car was creaking in protest

Great to see rvzz's little 912 on the road keeping up very well.

Sun behind Ribblehead viaduct and Whernside with some cars lying around in front of the view

Bright cars in the sunshine

Look forward to the next one
