November 2000 update from Garreth:

I have been enjoying all the updates to the Land Rover Centre homepage and often find myself entertaining fantasies of collecting a few more Land Rover models.  Who knows? Perhaps someday.  The one I’ve got presently is serving me well and it’s a pleasure just to see it sitting in the drive-way never mind ranging about in it.  It is the best thing I have ever paid money for.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the Land Rover this summer and only regret having so few opportunities to get her out into her element.

The picture below left was taken on the beach in Breskens, Holland on the return trip home the one on the right was taken from the window of a windmill near Breskens, Holland.
