where in York? not a few miles north west I hope

You will be driving along the A64 to get to the racecourse, right past pinkies LR dealer, wave at him as you pass. He will be in there bothering the hard worked staff over some problem or other.

On this route you will not come within 20 miles of me .

York has some lovely hotels and B&B's I recommend you try one after a few nights in your van. See what you are missing (and get a wash too ).

I would recommend some tourist locations for you to visit, but you wont get time to drive to them because of all the caravans blocking the roads . At work

and watch out for the speed trap/tax/insurance checking white van parked just past tadcaster, with a hand full of police cars dotted further up the road  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Where would we be without farmers and their tractor’s

To cut a rather long embarrassing story short - on 1st. June (Bank Holiday), I got my FL2 stuck in snow (yes I know SNOW) a very lonnnnnngggggggg way from everything

A small 4x4 could not pull me free, but after a quick telephone conversation an hour later a local farmer arrived and whips pulled us free in a jiffy. So full marks to farmers who rush off from a barbecue to help folks out of a situation and full marks for such wonderful vehicles that can do the job other 4x4’s cant .

Ps – being a keen amateur photographer, the situation has been duly recorded, but too embarrassing to publish here  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

News flash headline.... Farmers BBQ ruined by careless pensioner., quote " it was another of them city folk with a 4x4" sources report that a few other cars got stuck in the snow near a notorious dogging area. At work
