Thread: Not so alone any more.

Tuesday one of the trucks that deliver to us pulled up over the road.
I wandered over to say Gooday to the driver & see what he had on for us.
Walked over & noticed an older Defender Ute on the flat bed. Complete with small oil/fluid leaks & done up for some serious off road stuff.
I asked the truck drive who it was for? He sais some new Copper that was coming up.

So, a couple of days latter the Police Sergeant comes in with a small, young, female Police Person (is that the politically correct term now?) to introduce her to me, I do a lot of JP stuff for the local police.
Turns out she owns the Defender, & has a newish one at her home base.
So we talked land Rovers for a bit, until the Sergeant got sick of it. She said I was soft & didn't drive a proper Land Rover because I have a D2, apparently they are a luxury barge.

I did point out that I have a Series 2a at our home base in 1000 parts that hadn't been touched for years, this, I think, bought me up slightly in her estimation.

Anyway, SWMBO is now jokingly jealous?
My reply to that was land Rovers or not I doubt a very fit 20 something girl would be much interested in balding, 50 something bloke with a paunch.

SWMBO said she wasn't either!!

Any woman who owns two Defenders is worth knowing, I reckon.
