After a few weeks with Gerald in his little pit today dawned bright and sunny. I had to go Christmas shopping so i thought lets give Gerald a run!!

Half way up the drive (its quite steep) back wheels start to spin Ah Ha I thought its coverd in ice.

Took a couple of goes to get him up and them we drifted off down the road, which was sheet ice, slipping and sliding, turned the corner and went up the next road, a little hill, sideways BUT finally go to the main road which was clear of ice.

Then had a great run into Worcester to get SWMBO her pressie and then a great run back.

Super run out with clear blue skys and bright sun, top down, heater on max (for what its worth) and thats when i remembered why I bought a TVR

Have a great Christmas all

Really wanted to take mine out today, but to get to the main road was bad enough in the Zafira with ABS and traction control yikes, so thought better of it

Norman, happy xmas, BUT... you know this thread is useless without pictures, (Hehe LOL.)

Seeing you (Santa) and Gerald (Rudolf and the sleigh) with six rumbling
pistons/Reindeer going sideways doing the Xmas shopping.

Take care my friend, done a lot of miles in the van in the last snow/ice spell. Had one very near miss, (not my fault) and some plonker scraped up the side of my van, (that has a big aluminum frame on the side, for carrying large glass, Taxi driver more worried about his next punter, didn't stop.

Happy Xmas to you all, and your family. Take care out there. I look forward to our next year.
