Fantastic, and when it's lower than the horizon, "well then it's a pond.... or mirage...... moving about a bit"

Ah, well the LRDG were a law unto themselves and didn't really use the 'official' colour schemes. They painted and repainted their kit (much of it looted from friend and foe alike) as they saw fit, and sometimes from job to job.

I love the pink scheme on the LRDG trucks. Win!
Take car. Go to Mum's. Kill Phil - "Sorry." - grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over. How's that for a slice of fried gold?
