Ben, are you not on your way home, have you been kidnapped by those bloody northerners, Shock, horror. Give us a couple of weeks and we'll see if we can organise a rescue party. Unfortunately though you won't be able to come to the party due you having been kidnapped. I hope they don't want a ransom. If they do, they're out of luck there as well, as we poor southerners have no money. Hard times, but enjoy your stay up north, and we may see you again one day.

You will not believe Ben's lucky escape!! Barry,the fierce marauder,travelled from North of the wall :evil:.There was a stand off in a once quit cul-de-sac as Barry expressed his intent to press gang Ben NORTH OF THE BORDER!! Fortunately,Barry was distracted by a Zetec engine and went away happy :wtf:

The first picture brought back some memories for me of early starts on the Red Funnel.
Do they still have that fairly crap cafe on board? I used to have lunch in there on my way home every second Friday but there was precious little that was edible..

Good luck with the Coupe Ben and health to enjoy the van Matt. ;)

Fear not! I am still here, they'll never take me alive!

I will be setting off this morning on the long trip back south. Give a wave if you see a range rover towing an old, sad looking Marina!

The restaurant is a bit better these days Fergus. They know how to charge you for a breakfast though!!
