Would have needed a rather large telephoto lens - the vehicle stayed at home at Chateau PP.

Although usually up for humerous banter I can announce that there is no way on earth, even with Claire's education that 3.5 Tonnes of steel and plate glass will be going anywhere water. It handles like a supertanker now so to try and make it ampf? go in the sea is just not going to happen.
Anyway... Claire's evaporated water from the shower thread would get wet and tha would just be a waste of money! ;D

If it stays there much longer without moving, it'll become a listed building.

It looks like the Brethren will be needing to put in some overtime to get her ready in time. I hope he doesn't intend to come here in June or he will be walking ;D
