[Techniquest]

Meh,I had a bloody great time so I'm happy.Cost a fortune but at least I'm almost done with the UK at long last.Soon it'll be onto the rest of the world...

[RB37057]

My last bash was an 8 in 15 Freedom of Devon & Cornwall rover.

Track bashing or doing units?

[RB37057]

Track bashing or doing units?

Bit of both! Only not units, HSTs! MTU p*ss!

The units aren't worth doing in Devon & Cornwall now since the 142s migrated north! 2 weeks of commuting on 143s - *shudders*
