Excellent selection of shots Chris!

Not unless your name is "RAMAIR" - now there's (apostrophe) a thought - another sheep connection Paul.

Thanks, yes she runs fine despite only having the SDL soft cam at the moment. Whips round to the red line, like only a highly tuned boat anchor can.

I need to sort out the mixture as she's (apostrophe) drinking like a fish, but 95mph (private road next to the A1) on the way home was well good, if a bit wandery.
