Default Is anyone going out for a blat today?

Seeing as it's going to be "largely dry" today according to the weather liar on the BBC news i'm going to have to try and get the Sammio out for at least a local(ish) run in between family duties.

Anyone else planning on going out and about in their cars today? Anyone in the SW?

You should hear the rain belting down on my office up here in the North west (But then, the clue is in the location. we're not well known for good weather up here are we )

Perhaps you could do a tour of the caravan parks in West Wales?

Dave, what differential did you end up with, and how 'relaxed' is your car for cruising at speed?

3.63:1 and its much better at cruising at 60/70 although the car really isn't a motor way car anyway. But on A roads and round the lanes it's lovely.

I may still consider an O/D conversion "in the future"
