Cracking day yesterday.....had to go for a 1hr drive to update the maps on the idrive, so we headed for Weston Super Mare (from North Devon). Got stuck on the M5, so on the way home we stayed on the A38...roof down, Van-Halen "Jump" on the stereo (brings back good memories for Deb and I) and heaters blowing!

First time for 6 years since I got rid of last Z4, so it was a goooooood feeling!

Bit of a difference in the weather from last weekend. By coincidence MrsG and I walked to the same spot today as I did last Monday.

See if you can spot the difference. :o

Ok so the last one is other side of the reservoir, but the same view of Yes tor in the distance on both. :wink: MrsG's not daft enough to walk up that high.
