week end at the lakes,,,,

ok just had a weekend in the mountains by the lakes at el choro it was a warm sunny weekend,we managed to find some lanes had a cook up on the oz pig,, :shock: ,,,,,,good weekend...

just a few pics,,,,,,,

Gorgeous! Well for once you didn't beat us with the weather, warm and sunny here in the Midlands too - 20 degrees in places - but sadly no off-roading for me.

The Disco's looking good mate, but see you were followed up that track by a townie in a large Mercedes?

Well, I suppose we can't all have taste.

mate he was a diplomat that was with us for the weekend and it was on CD plates and he caned it,,,,,,yes,,,,,,,,,,,, :shock:

how was your oz pig.
I'm thinking about getting one

it was my mates,,and i could have done better with my bbq, ,,and i think there 250 quid now,,,just another heavy bit of kit to carry about,, ,,,i cant say i was impressed... ..no i wasnt,, ,,no i wouldnt have one .....

Depends on what you use it for, and how you use it, we our happy with the one we have.
Have to say that yes the price is quite high now, we payed less than that 2 years ago.

Not saying you did anythink wrong, first mistake i made was trying to use house coal smooked us and next door out, so tryed wood that was a lot better, going to be doing Convoy for Heroes in april going to try smokless fuel see how that goes and my friend is briging along a Dutch oven.
Will report back after.

no we used wood and after removing the spark arrester to aid the draw it was fine it cooked well and it kept us nice and warm , ,,,but its heavy and takes up room needs cleaning etc,, ,,,all im saying is i wouldnt have one,,,it dosnt float me boat,,,, ,

Dont knock the Merc very few cars can beat it for its mile eating ability and level of comfort.

I might have a little bias towards them as I have had one for 2 years and apart from dragging it's rear across the grass like a tired old dog I can't for one knock it's comfort, performance and fuel consumption (well diesel anyway) 35 to 40 on a run and around 30 to 35 around town.

Not bad for a panzer with the turret removed

Oh yeah great pictures by the way, you lucky person, but I can't believe you took the disco and not the frontera.
