Well my vote goes to YHR, that is a great pic! Here I am with a winter camo Tiger in bits and waiting...and waiting...and waiting for Kin at Tankzone to deliver the metal roadwheels that I ordered on 27th Jan, and a pair of 480 motors that another dealer promised me would be despatched on 3 Jan.

and heres a few more, some of these photos look a little foggy, its not me its the weather, while i was taking them it was almost like blizzard conditions
the last picture i took after reversing down this hill, we got to within 50 yards of the top but could not get any further, to much snow & ice, so i had to reverse down a narrow windy hill about a quarter of a mile on snow, !!!

Nice pics, thats kinda how it looked around here (Wolverhampton) but the sun coming out today has melted most of it, never mind, with any luck we'll get more over the weekend!

thanks larry. youre right, it is nice to see what it looks like in other parts of the world, it sounds funny, but i look forward to seeing youre posts in "youre weather today", some of the photos youve posted of where you live are stunning in my opinion, where i took them photos is where i used to live, its where the book and film "watership down" was based on, you should see it in the summer, a real little bit of heaven

Tony me and you seem to have a lot in common. ;D I do like snow when it is first falling and everything is covered (it is beautiful ),but when everything is first leafed out and evrything is green and nice and warm thats hard to beat.Where you took the pictures looks like it would also be an awsome place in the summertime. ;D ;D

I do miss driving thru the English countryside :'( , either down your neck of the woods Tony, or up over the North Yorkshire moors (I lived in Scarborough for a bit, and I still have a lot of friends in Whitby I try to visit when I'm home).
The American Mid West is dead flat and not at all attractive >:(

larry, when the summer comes i'll post some pic's here of the south downs, the scenery will take youre breath away, and in this day and age it may come as a surprise, that the "natives"  in that neck of the woods are so friendly, compared to where i live now, and ecchinswell the village where i lived has got one of the best country village pubs you'll ever likely to go to. mart when you come back to blighty for a visit or permanantly, if you make it to my neck of the woods i'll give you the guided tour of watership down country, loads of country pubs ;D ;D ;D
