I should be somewhere around Singapore then! I live about 3 miles from Nick Nairn's School - hope you are enjoying the food that your wife must now be able to prepare! How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?

I attempted a winter run over the route this afternoon - it wasn't a dismal failure and I'm sure with an earlier start and some more cars it would have been a great day out, especially driving the virgin snow on the high section of the Amulree to Kenmore road.........................
Going up to Loch Turret
Th locals out demonstrating about all the Land Rovers on the track............. I waited 15 minutes for them to stop their protest before turning round and heading toward the Sma Glen. Driving back down I stopped to chat with a family trying out their new D4's abilities, I wonder if they made it beyond the locals protesting!
As I found they really do mean it too!
Normally you can see the track winding up the side of the far away mountainside, not at the moment
I decided that as I was by myself and it was a bit late in the afternoon to risk trying a crossing to Kenmore I turned round and very nearly got stuck when I dropped a rear wheel into a snowed over ditch.............. GGS, Ice and Snow Tyres, DSC off andf plenty of steering wheel twirling saved the day!
On the way back to Amulree. Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet? Now driving - RRE Coupe Dynamic Lux Auto with Plus pack, Fuji White, Ebony, SD4 with tow pack Gone - 2010MY FFRR TDv8 Stornoway and Ivory, Privacy - the pace of a TDv8 RRS, the incomparable grace of a Range Rover Gone but will be missed- RRS Tdv8 HSE Stornoway Grey with Ebony Leather Gone (only a little missed) RRS Tdv6 2.7SE Giverny Green/Aspen Defender 90 County HT in Epsom Green |

The roads are great to drive and are not "off-road" they are all metalled but unclassified through routes - except the road to Loch Turret (it is above the Grouse Whisky Distillery at Crieff) which is a waterboard road that is open to the public.
