Well the image selection from the gallery came up with this Scottish Garage, and I like an interesting garage. Its in a familiar location to the FCF AA Box Spotter, Alford, Aberdeenshire, the home of the Grampian Transport Museum.

That looks a proper traditional one Neil :) Wonder if they also do work in the proper traditional way and give good customer service?

If they tick all those boxes they're worth their weight in gold ;)

Sure you all recognise that..
..and very topical...Chris Bonnington was a guest on Simon Mayo's radio 2 show on Tuesday. He talked about his first ascent of the Old Man of Hoy and his ascent to "celebrate" his 80th Birthday. It was one of those "couldn't take your ears off it" for want of a better phrase, moving personal accounts. Both events for Chris sprung out of deep personal sorrow and loss, and his emotional recounting of the loss of his son prior to that first ascent was heartbreaking. His latest book "Ascent...A life spent climbing on the edge" reveals much more of the man as well as his climbing. I'll pop in in the PE Library..out tomorrow 19th October 2017.

The OTCL is currently becalmed in need of a bit of stimulation.....

So in the words of Delia Smith "Come on! Lets be 'avin you!"

Anyone got a picture to get things flowing again?

Can the viewing public anticipate, a little white car (or possibly a pair of little white cars) in a scenic location appearing in POTD later on :-D :?:

Very, very possibly :D I think a few pictures of Daffodil and her little sister would be just the job!

Excellent, but Jim/Alasdair I was thinking of a background sort of like where the ice cream van is, although I do like a nice garage or two as well :!: :-D
