Yep its satisfying when you drive a long distance, always much more of an epic journey in an SJ!
I used to drive a 220 mile round trip every weekend and really enjoyed that
and tom - i dont really tend to get sunburnt that much, and if i do it looks bad on the day but is always tame afterwards!!

I'm gonna give her some TLC soon, do some major body work and oily bits so i can drive long distance again. It'll be well worth it, makes every journey an adventure!

See I've perfected the art of spraying most of the mud in on karis's side of the SJ

Sorry to Karis but the mud evidently didn't work very well as sunblock!!!

I burnt quite badly in May, I had SPF30 lotion on + SPF 30 make up. There was a nice fetching line where my sunglasses had shaded the top of my nose too!
Big blister right on the end of my sneck!
Not so good, we were getting married in Vegas the day after!
