Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
Two more great days together.
Doing all sorts of stuff. Yesterday was a trip down to Do er Castle, war tunnels and some Medieval castle sights.  One for the King of Selfies...... Dr Bompenstein.  Dover ferry harbour with France in the background, 20 miles away.     Down the tunnels into the White Cliffs of Dover.   A good time spent learning a bit about the history of the men saved and evacuated at Dunkirk

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
The Castle was very interesting.
 Once we got out the top it was time for a drink.  From Dover we went back to Whitstable Harbour to look for Fish and Chips for dinner.  They had just closed when we got there, however, a walk into town saw us sorted soon enough. An no, we did not go in for Pie and mash.  And we were not disappointed Cod and chips.  It seems food is playing a big Role in this trip. Today we had a few errands to run, but first on the agenda in Chatham high street was a real Full English Breakfast. Again, no complaints.  Done.  After this we went to a sports shop for McMurphy and his bride to buy some,comfy trainers as they will be doing a lot of walking. Followed by a trip up to Hempstead Valley Shopping centre for some more money spending, and a coffee. On a serious note, it's awesome to see these two still behave like kids after being together for almost 20 years.  Eventually home by 4pm. Had Mickey from next door around to arrange Taxi duties for tomorrow as I was headed over to Katy's place.  The cats are also very happy to have visitors to make a fuss over them. Animals are strange........ They know a good person.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
I said I would post up a bunch of food centred photos.
Monday we went into Rochester for the afternoon. Another good day. McMurphy outside my place, over the road.  In town.  Leaning shop.  Lunch.......   Renault 4  Still on Honeymoon 20 years later.  Rochester Cathedral. Seen from the Castle.  Medway River and Rochester Bridge.   Then a break to sit down and relax with a premium priced tourist beer.  Eventually back home we decided to do a quick little BBQ. My friend Kevin came over for a cuppa tea and to meet the visitors too.  Happy camper.  After dinner everyone faded and we all turned in by 10pm. Being a tourist, or the guide is hard work.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
Hello Murph,
Glad to see you are doing well, the truck will get done when time allows. I took a similar break as well when life got in the way. Looking forward to see the truck complete.
