Love it bobby.
Thought you were the good uncle [/QUOTE]

I was last night mate. Babysitting for my Goddaughter and her little brother and once their Mum and Dad had gone out, I read them 2 books and then let them stay up and watch the Formula One - Monaco Free Practice 1, which they loved.

Have a great weekend mate - again, sorry I can't be there for this one but I'll be moving house in the rain. Ugh.

go all out

I run a front runner the extra weight is ok to live with .

I have had the Frontrunner for about 6 years and it's still doing well. I like the bolt/ slide idea and it's not too heavy. It holds my eezyawn RTT perfectly (1.8m wide).
Cheers, Scoota

ive got a 2.8m frontrunner roofrack with a Gordigear 1.65m wide Explorer Plus tent on my 110. I think Frontrunner do some quick release brackets for roof tents if you don't want bits hanging over the side of the rack. I have the tent open over the drivers side of the car as its a bit wide to open at the back. I also got the annex which zips on the base of the tent. My wife and kids kip upstairs and I rough it downstairs. Plenty of room up top for 1 adult and 2 kids, well made and customer service is fantastic. I had the tent in my garage for about 3 months before I took it out of the box. When I did it was damaged (no damage on the box so we think it happened in the warehouse). At this point I was thinking "that's me knackered then...3 months after taking delivery." I took some photos of the damage, emailed Helmut at Gordigear and had a reply within a couple of hours. I had 3 options, one of which was a new tent. Very happy customer. They have a video on youtube if you want to check their gear out.
