A few weeks ago we came pootling along a narrow lane near us to find a water truck upside down, clearly the road wasn't up to the weight.

...a selection of soggy, moth-eaten, grubby toys going free to a "good" home .

It's the leader of the C&W trolls!

Well it was actually yesterday. A local chippy that was in a wooden shed..., It closed a few years ago. P1p
It now just more airy, Outside on the Range...
But Ivy' now onto the job
The stone, correction brick piers look a bit wanting...

No pics to prove it but found a guy casually walking his ferret on a lead tonight.

Sure I posted this yesterday but it's disappeared

Not all riding around here is mountainous, today's adventure was exploring the hundreds of km of pan flat gravel tracks on the delta of the river Ebro about 20km away.

The white dots on the water in the background are flamingos

Looks like one of the motors from Mad Max
