Actually I was on my way to work.
I know full well he wasn't as he was driving the wrong way!!
That and the fact he has a medical condition that causes him severe migraines! Strangely though it only kicks in on Fridays!! :lol:

I told you lot that WB is common as muck 8) :lol:

I passed a WB on the M6 on way home from the meet, didn't catch plate or see driver (they were leaving at J2 and I was shooting past rather fast 8) ), I'm assuming it was one of the Hinkley lot... so who was it?

So my husband laughs at me for being too slow to notice most of the oncoming Rexs. . . then promptly waves at every Land Rover we pass, thinking we are in Bertie (1986 2.25L Land Rover Defender 90). :o don't even ask how he can possibly confuse my baby for the tank!

Actually I'm getting better and managed a slightly mad wave at some poor guy in a grey just outside Cheltenham this evening.

Too slow for the next two on the A435 (black and then red). . . was too busy looking for my next overtaking Spot - DoH! :oops:
07 Sparkling Black Kuro (303) - strakes, private plate. Definitely getting front numberplate lowered - soon!

The 'practical' vehicle is a 1986 petrol Land Rover... I think it does worse mpg than the Rex but I try to not count!
