I didn't get a huge amount as I left the go pro on and the battery died :oops:
Cool, thanks. I wasn't much better. I filled up my camera memory really quickly on Saturday morning then just pretty much completely forgot about it until Sunday lunchtime.

I'm getting withdrawal symptoms already.

When i win my millions i just gonna pack my tent and BBQ in the Zuk and go for a drive (presuming i win enough i will of course be bringing internet strangers with me. Otherwise who would pull me out if i got it stuck?)

Pre-warned the wife for the potential next visit to Wiltshire. I'm taking the "we'd have to get a baby sitter" as a good response!

I went out in my SJ today and used the bull bar to shunt some huge boxes full lightweight junk around outside a warehouse, positioning them in front of the doors then pushing them in. Was a good laugh. Who needs fork lifts.

If I won millions though, I'd just have a fleet of seriously mental SJs for all occasions. I've caught the bug though....I want one like Dan's. :twisted:

Mine is parked at work waiting for me to back and wash it down.

Then i have all my new bits to sort out and a PAS conversion for my Dads to sort as well as the smoke issue.

Be full of busy or working possibly. Gotta fund that wiltshire trip!

If I won millions, I'd definitely be up for a long ass 4x4ing/camping trip.

I'd pull a caravan though. With all that cash, I could afford to upgrade the SJ with a decent enough engine so I could pull it!

It's only 650kg.

Don't think you would get vary far down most of the lanes with it. Did you not see topgear the other week?

I'm not desperately fussed about format. pngs will be fine. As for format, not a huge amount of point in anything bigger than 720p or 1080p as the majority of the footage is 720p, though I'll probably end up dropping in some stills too.

Ha! I meant that the caravan would go in a field somewhere, and I'd go out on the lanes...

Maybe make a LWB camper... :-D
