What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[Eric]

Gave it a little wash since it seems to be a magnet for road salts

They also tend to be over generous with the salt north of the border. Don't know what Highland Council is like but down here they go OTT because of the logging routes have to be keep clear. We have a wood burning power station north of Lockerbie so those roads must be kept clear

Yeah it's quite bad up here , they really only grit when it is need but it is just so much they put down

Today I drove a long way on the motorway and then on country roads into the Oden Forest to look at a piece of woodland that is to be auctioned off there. When I got out of the Grenadier a couple of gentlemen asked me if that was the new Defender. I said yes, except that it's now called the Grenadier and is built by Ineos. Dark faces. They probably don't have that much contact with the real world in this area. But then we took the Grenadier for a spin through the forest. They were thrilled and I was proud. My Grenadier fulfils my expectations. I am happy and look forward to it every time I get on it. At the end of the appointment, they asked again what it was called. I explained to them that it wasn't a Land Rover Defender. You're more likely to find them in the urban jungle.

Where they bring their own backup...

I jumped on FB marketplace last night and grabbed this kayak which had just been posted up.
Guy had it a year but family only used it twice. Cost him $1400 incl 3 seatbacks, 3 paddles, 3 jackets.
Cost us $500! Ooh I do love a bargain.
Should be great for our watery adventures.
I've ordered the Frontrunner roller as it's a fairly heavy boat , and as I intend to mount it the other way up , the various attachments catch on the rack lip.
We have an inflatable twin kayak , but it's a bit of a faff to set up , awkward to get in and out of - and there are no fishing rod holders.
Kids can have that one!

I think the rod holders are the Black flush mounted tubes...two up front and two in the stern?

My wife and I do a walk from our car parked on a headland to the river mouth at the base of the headland in the distance, Mooloolaba Sunshine Coast Queensland. Great walk along the beach, a little more than 6klms round trip with a dip in the ocean bending conditions. We have been this morning and now ready to go back for the

swim

Pulled my solar guys out of the mud.

I swapped my spare tyre to the front as I had scraped the sidewall on a rock or two. (just cosmetic damage).

Getting the wheel back on the spare wheel mount is quite an effort!
