Evening all - feeling tired after a quick trip to North Wales with the boys to climb Snowdon

Really proud of them both, James 7 and Josh 9 both carrying their own kit and food :clap1:

Fair play to them mate, I did a four day expedition when i was 15 and just joined the venture scouts, third day we had to go up Snowdon..... in 30 degree heat with four kit. Prepared for rain, sunburn was the bigger problem. Disheatening walking up there and watching the train go by ;) First time I ever saw a plane fly below me when i was up the top and all :)

Yeah, they did a great job - never had the chance to walk it when I was younger, did it a couple of years ago and for some reason decided the kids would love it

Evening all - the 164 went straight through the MOT with no issues and I finally got the new aircon pump gassed up

No worries about the CATs being removed :excellent:

My oldest (10) was at a sleepover with his mate, and his Mum bought them pumpkins to carve, he did a great job!!!!!

Not sure what she made of it!!

Evening all - just had to order my next company car. Unfortunately we are only allowed BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes or Volvo

Going for a Mercedes C350e Sport premium plus plug in hybrid because it's cheap on tax at 53g CO2 and 293bhp

My last car before the Citroen C5 was a C250 CDI which was great when it worked or the trim didn't fall apart!!!

I'm sure it will, but at least we have something with soul to drive at the weekends
