Thanks for that picture and I thought why are Exmoor ponies grazing in Thetford so was a little confused until the knee deep pee provided enlightenment..[/quote]

Found it quite by accident and we commented to the effect that it looks just like the New Forest - complete with cattle grids. Didn't realise we had trespassed into Suffolk until we passed a Norfolk road sign!

We shall pay it a visit when we come over to Thetford later on in the year to lay Heather's Mother's ashes along side her husband and sons (delayed from a year ago due to restrictions) we were very lucky and gave her a proper send off down here a week before Doris restricted all movements.

Their family home was Abbeygate in Thetford although Heather was born in Southmead.

This SSI is a new addition, we last lived there briefly between overseas contracts in 1975 and it wasn't in existence, it's very reminiscent of our two parks being Dartmoor and Exmoor other than the pony types and of course your trees grow vertically, not leaning with the prevailing wind grin2

Great weather today in Belgium.
Needed to do some shopping I C W the Valance for MattMog.
So on the road with MattMog. First to my paint shop, to ask what color green MattMog is.
He did a test, but no match. No recognition because of the matte paint ???
Does anyone know any other way to find out what color this is without going via MMC.
On the detour back I pass Mrs. MattMog I hit the horn with a terrible noise as a result.
What happened; I had moved the horn to make room for the valance.
I had mounted the horn vertically but because of that it doesn't work properly!
Placed it horizontally again via a bracket and everything works perfectly again.
Strange and weird but another wonderful day Morganing.

Any help with the color is welcom. I think it is the same color as the M3W Shark Face.

I don't see what a matt finish has to do with not being able to test the colour. Did they use a hand held scanner? There is software out there that will match any colour.

Yes with a 2-hand held scanner. He searched for a long time without result.

Very odd in colour matching for print we wouldn't have that issue. Lots of colours are matt such as say Coca Cola red on a cardboard case.

Dean Royale runs a car coatings company maybe he can help. Otherwise then MMC I guess.

A dry, bright day so I managed to get Tarka out for the first time in weeks.
An absolute delight, I just wish there were places to go, other than a garden centre or DIY store!
Oh for a Cafe or Pub.... just to sit outside....

i have just returned from a quick blast from Reading though Goring to Moulsford, then up to the Downs and the A417 before returning to Reading. Slight rain did not stop play.
