I saw quite a bit on my run in through the Asdown Forest. It looked really stunning out there this morning.

One of those "should have had the camera with me mornings"

Going to use the Mercedes tonight, all panels, doors, locks & even petrol flap get warm air vents, along with the heated mirrors & aeiral, so frost is no problem
