Nice evening for it...

I was returning home after a walk with my missus last night, and decided that a bit of a drive was in order. Got the car out and went for a pootle round a few of the local Suffolk lanes - no hooning around, just keeping to the speed limits and looking at the scenery.

What a pleasant experience! It's so easy to thrash around in these beasts that you tend to forget that just cruising around smelling the newly-mown fields (and other country smells!) is a great way to get around.

Had a very pleasant 30 - 40 minutes drive.

David

No - scruffy trousers and jumper, with shades!

Watch out for piles of Oss crap though. I had a close experience, it threw it up onto my rear wing and just missed me! I have calculated though that if I'd been going quicker it should throw it well clear!
