Had many a happy hour in there when I was a kid. My dad used to work in the signal box.
Good swimming in the river and diving off the bridge - even though we weren't allowed

I've been through there just over a year ago, some fantastic driving roads & quiet too!
We came up from Valencia in Spain having finished a banger rally & my mate wanted to see Andorra in the summer having been there snowboading.

This is us right at the top before dropping into Pas de la Casa & back into France. As you can see the weather was'nt the best, it only stopped raining because we'd climbed above the clouds!

On route to Scarborough with my lad, did say to the missus that we we're just "popping out", she wasn't that happy when returned hours later!!

Trough

Not that far from me, where the butty van is 20 yards behind me taking the picture.

"...Not that far from me, where the butty van is 20 yards behind me taking the picture...."

Is that the bottom of the Trough Of Bowland?

Somewhere in the Voges mountains.

Top of the Col De Bonnet,

Refuge Napoleon, Col De Vars

If that doesn't give inspiration you need to sell up!

That was a four and a but country trip... Germany was JimGiblett navigation error and we were only there for 10mins. It was supposed to be a once in a lifetime trip but it might turn into an annual thing.

It was a strange feeling coming over a crest, seing the sea and thinking "Bl**dy hell, I've driven my home made car to the Med".
