A strange anniversary - one year without a post!

Awaiting inspiration; motivation; and better weather, though it's been a mild Winter thus far.

The GS/GSA section is quite sleepy but.... one of the classic auctions which I take an interest regularly on the Classic for under £10K thread, actually has a GS on the lot list.

Must be because it's a leap year.

Welcome back.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

Well I had nothing to comment on, and it appears neither did anyone else. I had logged on every day to check, so not totally comatose!!

But thanks for the responses - much appreciated - coffee on the go!

Love the auction GS, that's how mine should look! And NF's Renault Floride avatar. I had a Corgi Floride in pale metallic green a few years back (well, OK, lots of years!)

I did start the GS up last November for the first time in 18 months and moved her into the barn.
Blowing a gale here right now, things are rattling but she's safe enough.

A few years back:

We moved house with the GS towing a calf trailer. Many trips and in snow as well. Didn't miss a beat - and didn't get stuck either.

Picture(s) of the day thread, just about the FCF's most active topic. The GS in the snow would be a perfect submission.
