Is that a cross between a Vauxhall and a vagina?

Ten years in the US. Quite the statement.

Yes, they are. No.2 daughter has a Ce'ed (shite name though). She had one of those horrible drophead Golfs prior to that, and it was nowt but mither. Her husband has now moved from the Kia dealership to the Lambo/Bentley one, so I doubt any further aspirations will be fulfilled...

My No.1 daughter is currently on her third (this one being a Vignale, so has all the fruit). Nice car, but I'll not be tempted away from the Toyota 😉

A dead boring, but ridiculously reliable and cheap to run Toyota Avensis estate 2.0D4D. And a Fiat Ducato-based motorhotel-for-two. But they're both in my dragon's name so I'd better shut up. Even if I paid for both of them... Seriously though, we've had many Fords, several Rover group, three...

Bit big for me moho though 😉

Thought about going north tbh, and we were keen to do a run via Germany (which we may take in partially in Sept/Oct anyway as we love it there, and there are lots of excellent Stellplatz) and along the Baltic coast and possibly over to Finland from Tallinn. However, guilt plays a part, and we'd...

Quite. Trawling from one bland field full of caravans to another is somewhat soul-destroying too.

I'm pretty much the same, and have been for many, many years.

Keep away from the Things That Annoy You thread then.

A mix mate. Prefer off grid when we can, but our next excursion is a couple of nights on a full service campsite. After that it'll be Britstops, CSs, and stealthy stuff up in Northumberland, then probably more similar in France, Spain, Portugal in September (and maybe Italy and Greece. We'll see...

Very true, although LiFePo4 batteries can go down to >20% completely without detriment. In our case (leisure vehicle) replacing 200ah of flooded/gel/AGM battery can be achieved with a 100ah LiFePo4 one. Yes, quite a bit more expensive at initial outlay but with its far superior cycle...

I'm certainly no expert, but you can't help but get a general overview if you do a bit of off-gridding!

The cycle lifetime is generally based on a near full discharge and a near full charge. 400 is probably about right for lithium ion chemistry, but lithium iron phosphate will usually do around 2000 or more cycles. I have two of the latter in the power packs I carry in my motorhome, so they'll...

You could try the Walking Rugby up at the Butts. To be fair, it's more glacial than walking, but dead easy on the joints.

Schad.... gut?

This, according to @premrugby, is a 'brilliant photo'. What? Brilliant at highlighting the 'crowd'?

Why not? It's half of the civic colours. Maybe they could have made it half green?

Lucky bugger. Did he give you the finger? 😉

Thousands the way it's going. Same every year. The fish see a load of them off though.
