Default Weight?

You look like you've lost weight Max!



Must be all that excitement.

It looks like so much fun it should be illegal.

Well thanks Max for putting up a photo of me driving someone’s expensive piece of kit with my eyes shut. The truth is I was letting The Force guide me, no need to keep a look out. No really you get eyes and mouth full of grass and soil of the tracks driving.

... on the REMLR forum are some more pics

I guess that is how it would have been when the Cent would have been running during my visit. A good reason to come back one day

Greetings from hot Switzerland (34 degrees!)

Keefy, Max was just sucking in with excitement and hasn't lost much weight, just looks like it in the photo. Just ask him what the doctor said yesterday about him.

Hi Chris
We got the cent sorted, just a fuel problem that let us down durring your visit, we look foward to your next visit.

We will take on the tracked vehicle course....Unfortunately my driving skills restricted the vehicles completing the designated course by getting bogged on the 4th crossing !!

We were looking foward to seeing the wheeled vehicles have a go as well but due to lack of time the 12km cross country course dident get started.

All you carrier guys should start planning your next group visit.

Phill
As you can see we are looking after the old girl !

Kind regards

good idea Tim, you take your carrier and we will take ours then we have to have Keefy come along with his movie camera to document it all.

ditto!!

A few truths. No outing with armoured vehicles is complete without getting one stuck. Likewise, they are always larger in pictures than in reality (not saying anything about anyone's girth here either). And, it never ceases to amuse and amaze me that the appearance such ferocious beasts can be tamed with the addition of a curious boy or pretty girl.
