Welcome

One of my favourite modified Patrols is that newer shape so would love to see this come together.

I don't know about anyone else but it seems more and more people are heading towards modifying Patrols and away from Land rovers. Prices seem to have gone up a bit on them and there's more stuff to get for them too which is great.

Hope you stick around as said I'd like to see this come together, I can help with some advice as and when you may need it hopefully

Hi,
Yep, Caulkhead meaning true Isle of Wighter as apposed britrb and myself who are classed as Overners or from the Big / Other Island.
I have been told to be a Caulkhead you need to have at least three generations of the family from both sides born on the island along with yourself.

The Islanders used to do alot of the Caulking of wooden ships apparently and that is where the term comes from although nobody knows for sure how it originated. There are also stories that true Islanders can float home across the Solent because of the amount of Caulk in their heads.

We'll have to meet up for a pint at some point

Hearing you on the spoiler my friend

but the spinners, now had not thought of those.

A pint sounds good to me, I see you are a paid up member so PM me at some point when you are free.

Have you thought about adding a spoiler to that list of mods

will give it instant style tearing it up down the Military Road may get in the way of the ladder though.
