I laughed at camping part as would be wild! Car looking sweet too mate Thanks Ali mate. Yeah wee Mindy-moo is coming along nicely, although slowly. Meant to take a pic of her latest addition that I fitted at the weekend. She now has the chrome air vent trims so think that pretty much finishes off the interior, although we quite fancy the chrome style bars too or possibly a small roll bar in silver. Gayle was serious about the camping bit mate! Thing it would be a right laugh eh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was gonna give Simon and Gav a call too along with Sarah and Dave. Plus anyone else that's would be up for it you're more than welcome guys! Will need to get moved in first though and get the bulk of the work done but might be able to do it later this year? Would be the first civic5 meet where we can all have a right laugh/drink etc, and the village has an amazing wee cafe that does evening meals on a Friday. Plus there's the train to Galashiels just 5 min walk from the house if we all wanted to go for a wee night out in town? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 Just had Mindy out for her first proper drive since end of October last year. Was freezing cold, but sun was shining, roads were dry(ish) so we went for a run down to our new house to get an idea where we're gonna build the garage, sunhouse etc. And yes, roof down! Did lunch again in the wee village cafe, then went for a wander round the village. Folk are so friendly and it's just relaxed and quiet. We drove back over the moors road that goes from Stow to Lauder then up the A68 to home. Thought I'd stop to get some quick photos of Mindy! Where we stopped is literally 2 mins drive from the cottage (less than half a mile) so this is what we have on our door step roads wise! And good to see the MX5 love is still there on the open road........got a wave from a mk3 then shared a lights flash with a mk2 that had the hard top fitted (wonder if either are on here?) Awesome wee run and think Mindy likes her new drive way/village 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that deffo looks like another roman road... Straight as an arrow! It is indeed......but at the end of the straight you're into some nice twisty sections. Really is an epic road although a few of the corners are blind so have to be a bit cautious as the roads narrow and there are sometimes 4x4's, tractors and sometimes flying livestock! That road is gonna be Gayle and mines summer commute, what a great way to start and end your day eh! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
