twas a chilly morning at birling gap, when we arrived late.....sorry, everyone was freezing their nuts, and whatever you have when you don't have nuts, off.
right next to the carpark, a sheer drop, that's creeping ever closer to take the place down to oblivion...
of course as a mod, i had to prove that although walking on water was tricky, i could at least levitate on it.....
and so on we wet, eastwards along the coast to a pebbly beachy bit, where someone had the idea of a photo shoot, which ended in the disaster of both james and i dug out wheels in to the deceptively shifty ground, and ended up being pushed out, i earned a glower from the mrs, and james proceed to demonstrate how to get most of the beach out of his car at 50mph, whilst his car shook like a ****ting dog!!! course there's always that one stone that never comes out easy........
the convoy down to the smugglers arms pub was great, the looks as a row of 8 pandas, new/old, 2wd/4wd, and all the colours was so cool, i think we got some genuine love out there!!
lunch was a mountain of meat and veg.......ay photos, i was too busy eating, after which i was called upon by the gathered to present young john/MEP with an award for the dubious honour of...well not quite getting it right
https://www.fiatforum.com/polling-station/217862-panda-idiot-year-vote.html
which he won by a landslide

however it appears he is now exempt from such japes, and i have placed myself in the running now.....bugger.....
anyways, onwards to the east, to the "grand designs" sugar cube house, short stop for a bracing walk along the promonade, and time to see a very cool rainbow do its thing....
and finally the last push on towards lydd, a final gathering and photocall in the gathering gloom:
now, somewhere along the line, i might have said "oh, do that arseing about in the puddles again.......see what i mean about panda idiot of the year? videos to follow on youtube!!!
in the meantime, thanks to all that made it, was a great day out
