We tried the Figgy Pudding SPAM over the holiday. Most of those who tried it were rather surprised. The most surprising was the mother-in-law... she is an incredibly picky eater and she loved it!! Believe it or not, SPAM's popularity is rising rather highly and their sales are excellent.

Absolutely!!! I barely knew how to change spark plugs and do an oil change before getting my SIIa. It has taken years to get it where it is now. Part of the deal made with SWMBO in order for me to buy it was that I learn how to fix it. It's been a slow process, but I can honestly say I did...

Actually, not that many. The most recent trip had only one, very minor hiccup, and the owner had it fixed in a couple hours. Most of the owners of these rigs are competent mechanics and can make roadside repairs on their own. Sadly, most owners of modern rigs can't do the same. I have...

Guess it depends on which Rover. I know of an unmodified (except for an overdrive), 1950s SI Rover that completed a 4K mile trip across the US earlier this year. Know of a guy who has crossed the country several times in an unmodified 1960s SII, as well as a few other Series owners that have...

Oh man.... a friend in the UK just sent me this pic and said it was dinner tonight. Evidently they are not available in the US, not that I've found anyway.

Thank you. We have a Christmas parade every year, so it's kind of a requirement for the vehicles that participate. There's a rumor that Santa will travel to the tree lighting ceremony via the Rover.

And one for the fat-man in the red suit.

Did someone say "lights and a tree"?

Two of our twin packs arrived today. Have a feeling the other will arrive tomorrow.

Just noticed... they have Teriyaki as well.

Than you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!! Just snagged 2 2-packs!!! Hmmm.... maybe I should try to sell a couple of them - parts for tge Rover! LOL Nope, 1 is to try, 1 is to save and the other 2 will be gag gifts for Christmas.

'63 SIIa 88 Land Rover Station Wagon. Not yet finished, but getting closer. Attached are pics from the day Grover arrived (rough shape) and a couple or so current pics. Once finished the adventure trailer build will begin.

So far all of the flavors are available in my area except for the tocino and terriyak.

And that's what I'm talking about. I have no problems whatsoever with a person making a profit, but 3, 4 or more times the actual product cost... they give free enterprise a black eye IMHO. And those friggin' idiots who pay those prices... well, at the saying goes "a fool and his money are...

Already sold out... friggin' price gougers should rot in hell...

Following is a link to one of my favorite early pioneers of overlanding via a motor vehicle - John Weston and family. https://www.johnwestonaviator.co.uk/overlanding/ IMHO the 1910s - 1930s is the 'Golden Age' of vehicle assisted adventure overlanding, expeditions and safaris. A side hobby is...

Yup, the term definitely came out of Australia, just like 'trek' was coined by the South African Dutch and Afrikaans. Here in the States and Canada the massive Conestoga wagons developed - massive beasts! Definitely bigger than the wagons seen in western movies! First mention of them was here...
