Really not getting on very well with these tyres at all...Mrs C had a valid point by suggesting that maybe i have purchase a number in a defect batch...3 in 6 weeks is either Very bad luck or there is someting wrong..even my local tyre fitter wet himeslf when replacing the last punctured tyre.
He read out to his mate..."ere mate this ones a brand spanker and split a good un...dura wall technology for exellent puncture resistance" he said as he read the writing on the tyre whilst peeing himself  "you cannot teach stupid people to do clever things"

Said it already but many thanks to Rob for sorting it out, it was a very very professional job and made for a great day. Just p  d off that we had to go after just two lanes with a poorly Tomb Raider.
Got to say though that after Laning in Defenders and D3's, there is just no contest with a D3 winning hands down, so will be using the D3 on the next one.

Sorry Steve 
@ innominate - great photos of group 2. Thank Laura for getting a couple of photos of Mick and I, unless she was driving and you took the photos  . Tell her I owe her a tea cake or two  If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

Feeling a bit guilty Have therefore posted the only pics I took in my Gallery. At least it shows the D3s before we got them muddy / dusty! I was taught to be cautious.

No worries Spoons If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

I can’t believe I missed this, it looks like you had a lot more fun than I did  and what a day for it to the pic’s look fantastic. Brute force and ignorance, the D3 does the rest.

Looks like you had a great time.
Really annoyed that I couldn't make it (at the last minute as well  ) as I was really lookign forward to it.
Looking at some of the pictures I recognise many parts, especially the ones at the bottom of Bamford Clough, as I walk the dog there most days but have yet to try it in the D3
