They’re not too bad in snow, great fun in wide empty spaces in the snow ;)
You can't beat RWD for entertainment value in the snow.
I remember drifting a 7.5 ton in an empty car park years ago, that was long before drifting was called drifting though lol
We get by just fine - always carry a few extra animal skins to keep warm in case we get stranded, and a big stick to ward off marauding mancs and scousers...Quote:

And no I've never been one for fashion, not since the Bowie song of the same name. I can make even the most ludicrously expensive designer gear look like something I found in the bins behind Primark, so I just don't bother :)
OI - I come from the pool!Quote:

Most of it belonged to Del's mum, and quite a lot of it from when Del was a kid used to live in a much bigger house with her parents [huge detached villa with many rooms], long before she met me.Quote:

Possibly lol... Although we've been back weeks later, after having made a donation, and have seen some of the stuff we gave them, put out on the shelves. But yes, we always take stuff that others would likely consider as worth having. It's the same when we do car-boot sales - the bulk of our gear is gone in minutes, often snapped up by dealers!:eyebrows:Quote:

Yeah but now you live all the way down there in That London, so I should be safe :) I would include cockneys in my list of marauders, but they tend to be a lazy bunch who don't think there's anything worth marauding further north than Watford :DQuote:
