Replace the fuel lines on my Bushbaby. Try and get some more work done on my Challenger 2 LSS kit. With my staff on leave I will have peace and quiet, with no need to check on them, so progress is underway....... :lol: :lol:

Ok, so that did not work out 100% as planned. Weekend of 14th Dec we, Tailwinds and Chain Gang, albeit by car, headed to Oom Paula's Elands Quad Camp. (^^)
