River Deep, Mountain High

I got my power inverter for charging stuff, and I just picked up a great little battery powered triple LED lamp from B&Q, it's magnetic, has a velcro mount and a window sucker thingy, it's waterproof, and cost £4.98.

I am quite impressed so far, but we'll see what it's like after the weekend, I bought it primarily as a light for the tent, but I reckon it's got loads of uses.

i just picked up 8 gas canisters for my small heater. 2.5 hours each. I hate the cold....

Good one Bob I forgot to buy a light....

I have an 800 watt inverter as well so charging shud not be a problem..

we got loads of power between the trucks by the looks of things....

[joker??]

One of the Kumho's on the front is pretty beaten up, so I might get a pair of Insa Dakars to match the rears (barely used) when I get back. They're cheap as chips, and will only be on the truck if I think tyre damage will be possible, otherwise the BFGs will be on.

This might be an opportunity to paint the steels a bit fancy

isn't the spare tyre in better condition ???
wales took a lot out of those tyres

[blackpoolsparks]

I hope tyres wont be a problem, Im running M/Ts ??????

[blackpoolsparks]

He was unable to get cover reaarranged at work, so will be unable to make it. I am under instruction to take loads of pictures.
Shame really, we've been planning this for a while now and it all got messed up cause of some health issues i had last month, now im OK and able to make it and hes not.
You guys would of really enjoyed his company, hes a top bloke.

I have a 500w inverter, so we've got at least 1.6kW between us. Should be useful for the microwave oven and the plasma telly

Possibly. Sadly its not on a wheel yet

I'm taking one of the BFGs as a spare. It'll be ok as a 'get me home'.

By 'beaten up', I mean kind of looks like scarface gone ten rounds with a cut-throat razor! What the hell were you doing with them?!

I,ve done Wales twice on my Cooper STT's (M/T) and had no problem whatsoever, but I'm not an aggressive driver (off road)

[gwh200]
