Just got back: great couple of days: rain held off till the last 60 miles from home.
Will post a couple of pics tomorrow.

Amazed at the economy: brimmed the tank before we set off and reset the odometer: brimmed the tank from just under half on t'way home, converted litres to gallons etc. The sums reveal a genuine..........

44mpg! :omg:

Mostly 70 ish motorway and dual cabbageway cruising (officer) , but with some A road and B road + slow steep moorland roads.

Very impressed!

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..

Are those sheep what is called a "Leisure Centre" in rural Yorkshire?

Ain't it funny, how time slips away...?

Nope, that's the local talent, as Mr Sewell has alluded to.

I like the sound of 44mpg, that bodes well for our European jaunt :-)
