Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
Two more great days together.
Doing all sorts of stuff. Yesterday was a trip down to Do er Castle, war tunnels and some Medieval castle sights. ![]() One for the King of Selfies...... Dr Bompenstein. ![]() Dover ferry harbour with France in the background, 20 miles away. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Down the tunnels into the White Cliffs of Dover. ![]() ![]() A good time spent learning a bit about the history of the men saved and evacuated at Dunkirk

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
The Castle was very interesting.
![]() Once we got out the top it was time for a drink. ![]() From Dover we went back to Whitstable Harbour to look for Fish and Chips for dinner. ![]() They had just closed when we got there, however, a walk into town saw us sorted soon enough. An no, we did not go in for Pie and mash. ![]() And we were not disappointed Cod and chips. ![]() It seems food is playing a big Role in this trip. Today we had a few errands to run, but first on the agenda in Chatham high street was a real Full English Breakfast. Again, no complaints. ![]() Done. ![]() After this we went to a sports shop for McMurphy and his bride to buy some,comfy trainers as they will be doing a lot of walking. Followed by a trip up to Hempstead Valley Shopping centre for some more money spending, and a coffee. On a serious note, it's awesome to see these two still behave like kids after being together for almost 20 years. ![]() Eventually home by 4pm. Had Mickey from next door around to arrange Taxi duties for tomorrow as I was headed over to Katy's place. ![]() The cats are also very happy to have visitors to make a fuss over them. Animals are strange........ They know a good person.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
I said I would post up a bunch of food centred photos.
Monday we went into Rochester for the afternoon. Another good day. McMurphy outside my place, over the road. ![]() In town. ![]() Leaning shop. ![]() Lunch....... ![]() ![]() Renault 4 ![]() Still on Honeymoon 20 years later. ![]() Rochester Cathedral. Seen from the Castle. ![]() Medway River and Rochester Bridge. ![]() ![]() Then a break to sit down and relax with a premium priced tourist beer. ![]() Eventually back home we decided to do a quick little BBQ. My friend Kevin came over for a cuppa tea and to meet the visitors too. ![]() Happy camper. ![]() After dinner everyone faded and we all turned in by 10pm. Being a tourist, or the guide is hard work.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
Hello Murph,
Glad to see you are doing well, the truck will get done when time allows. I took a similar break as well when life got in the way. Looking forward to see the truck complete.
