If by "circular fun" you mean donuts, then no need to kick shit out of anyone as he does have footage.

I didnt think that kind of "threat" was permitted??????? HHHmmmmmm :D :D :D (Wopass???? Comment????)

"threat" was to imply, hurry him up with my copies, as well you will have worked out, being a clever feller etc etc. :idea: :idea:

Have you seen the footage? Pore Siwsie was getting a little sickly, its a funny feeling being a passenger when thats happening to you.

Only ones i saw Bob, were of Benny cutting sick and you spitting chunks outa them tractor tyres with your hand out the window doing the "rotor". Oddly enough Bob, you were doing yours anti clockwise, which i just cant seem to do...... actually i dont recall having ever seen anyone go anti clockwise repeatedly.

The vid's a good laugh, look like you all had heaps of fun.

I had an absolute ball, Mark, a truly great time. Having tyres that actually bite into the sludge is a real help too.

Siwsie mostly enjoyed, I think she has more fun playing with my great nephew that actually playing trucks!!! Cant seem to appreciate the fascination of whats under the bonnet, and having to have a new look evry few hours.

Also the delays in starts got her going, she is a "list" person, likes everything orderly.

But is looking forward to going back, so she can cuddle with wee Jack some more and read him stories.

She had her first roast goat meal at Ben's too, so the result of that is orders to go out and KILL!! deer, goat, anything wild!! What a woman!!!!

We (her!!) fell in love with DB's design of the sleeper 4x4 truck, so much som that I have been given instructions to more or less copy. so, expect to see even more mods to Twuck.
