Been off-roading at Kirton this afternoon...
It's hot: if you're popping down tomorrow, make sure you have water for self, engine, and pets.
The site is frighteningly large. You can end up out of sight, and sound, of everyone else. There are steep slopes, axle-twisters, and lots of water.
The Google Earth coverage is currently datable as late June 2003, and the main features haven't changed. That long "trench" around the south- west corner is flooded towards its northern end, and I decided to turn back.
It looks like the fettling I was doing has sorted my Landie. It scraped through the MoT on hydrocarbons, but fitting a new thermostat has let it warm up properly, I've been able to lean off the mixture, and the effect on fuel consumption has been dramatic. And the leaf-springs are a lot less stiff now.
Weaknesses: on-site signposting is a bit meagre. A couple of places in the wooded area, it would be worth marking routes as one-way, since there's no chance to pass another vehicle, and no way to see the other end of the section.
I hear somebody broke a suspension turret while getting a cup of water.
