Probably too late for today & not sure where you live so distance might be an issue - have you been to the Pontcysyllte Aquaduct ? LL14 3SG.

I have been a few times over the decades, last time I went it was being refurbished and there were no hand rails - I crawled most of the way - no head for heights.lol

Respect Rick, I would give it a go but for the Missus its a no-no she is terrified of water even though she can swim and hates sheer heights. !

Had airbag recall done this week. Nice folks at Nissan Sheffield, Bristol Street Motors.

Said was most interesting car he had all day and despite bit of rust should keep it.

Got a free wash n vac too. Now looking at some new ATs.

Need to have another meet up at some point, but I'm working a weekend shift now which proves a bit antisocial

Still here.
Been busy at work and home for the last couple of weeks.
Fitted the new from flexi exhaust section to the terrano and made a start on my swing away wheel carrier.
Rain has stopped play on most of my projects recently.
