No when i wuz a student on a snowey Wed sports asoc afternoon we just found a member with a LWB Land Rover, bribed him with beer (or nicked his van?) booked 600yds & backed it up as far on the FP as we dared & with the engine running & heater a blowing we laid down inside pumping in bulls & V's. :shakeshout:
& when the Range office (in those days round the corner where Karens office used to be) said hey 'boys' how did you get on we said hey just fine 'old man', fine :lol: & drove off to the Royal Std for beef & ale pie & beer.
My Automatic MPV could have made Biz on Sat no problem! (it did a hill to take Ollie sledging) & I could have shot fine at 300, just every body looks out the window at snow & thinks 'day off'?...........appart from students it seems?
