I'll give you a toot if I see you, Andy.
Off to the Lakes myself tomorrow with my kayaking buddies for a long weekend of paddling.
Bunking up near Ambleside.

No lanes planned but you never know. Will be doing a few walks though.
Usually go over Loughrigg Fell to Grassmere for a spot of lunch then walk back to Ambleside.
Ronp where do you kayak. The B&B we stay at overlooks the River Brathay and usually see a few paddling up and down. Will keep a look out for you

We rent out High Wray village hall and yes generally kayak up the Brathay & Rothay for a play then over to Waterhead for a brew & muffins.
Also paddle south down past the ferry, over to Storrs and up to Boness.
Really do feel 'at one' over in the Lakes especially in a LR.

Yeah know what you mean. A LR really looks at home in the Lakes. For me there's no better place to be.
We are staying at The Riverside B&B. Been going there for 20 years now and it's right on the river with a bit of a rapid right in front of it.
Will wave at everyone that floats past

Ment to say it's the river Rothay that runs in front of where we are staying.

Thanks Cliff
Yes been a nice little project, never really seen an FL2 rufty tuftied up.
You'll see I've even squeezed 285/50/20 LTZs under the arches.
Oh, and stuck a complete ebony HSE leather interior [per Landamark] in it last weekend.
Ray's got my Mantec 'being seen to' so that'll go on when he's back from Poland.
Make sure you post some pics of yours when it arrives.

Will be good to see.
Hope you've got your gobstoppers at the ready as you'll need them to talk on the FFRR site.
Oh, but they won't say much as they don't talk too much over there.
