Willys Jeeps! Snow Patrol!

 

Back in December we got a cold snap with ice in Dunbar, however up on the eastern Lammermuir Hills was a dumping of about 5 inches of lovely snow and I drove up to see farmer Chris and we got out a drive in the Jeeps!, it was magical!

Roll the pics and 3 films!...

Jeeps drive with friends Chain Bridge Honey farm

 

Now you have watched this you see why we have to help out John make his dream come true...

Today we took John out in the Jeeps and let him drive them for a bit to give him that extra bit enthusiasm to keep going with his project through his treatment...

We headed to the Wojtek pond to show John the trees before continuing to the recently re opened Chain Bridge on the English Border Norham and stopped at the Honey farm for a cuppa and cake...

What a place!

Back in Duns with John driving we had a chip roll,   before John drove back to Chirnside and Chris and I headed back over the Moor roads having had a great day out sharing the Jeep love and catching up with John again...

I headed for home back to the coast as the sunny was already going down at 8pm ending a great day out...

Film of our fun day out, as always the Jeeps creating a lot of interest by people...

More soon...
