If you’re a regular reader here one thing will probably be all too apparent, we like our tea at GLR towers! I can’t think of any trips we’ve done, be that shows, camping, greenlaning or just out for a drive where at some stage during the trip we haven’t pulled over and dragged the ‘brew box’ out of the boot… Read more »
Yesterday I had to take our hairy beast to Queen’s Veterinary School Hospital in Cambridge for treatment for an ongoing condition. This was the 3rd of 4 visits and so far the trip there had been reasonably smooth, taking just under 2 hours. However due to the weather conditions yesterday, it took a little longer! My route was to be M5… Read more »

It’s a fairly easy going lane with a hard, compacted surface for the majority of the route. The route has recently been repaired with hardcore after… Read more »
Went to Wales weekend just gone and a group of us took opportunity to drive a short greenlane. The going was quiet easy and about a half of it was on a metalled surface. The bits that weren’t covered were potholed in places but generally quite easy for a Freelander. On the way out we had to wait for the… Read more »
