Going to be an expensive month.
Banana needs 5 tyres, the spare has never been on the car in the 13 years I have owned her.
Then into a local body shop to have the rusty osr sill replaced, I do have the replacement section. And then there is the hotel to be paid for when we attend the CMGOC weekend away. End of the month it will be road tax time. Still she is worth it.

Already on order. My local tyre shop is as good as gold and giving me a good deal.

Well, that made a dent in my wallet. In the 13 years I have owned Banana the full size spare wheel has never been on the car. But the tyre looked as if there was a few cracks in the side wall, and the wheel is a gridspoke, we now have 11 spokes fitted. I had spare 11 spoke so I got the tyre shop to surround that in rubber.
It’s a family run business is the tyre shop. And all the family work there. 1 man and his 4 sisters. They also sell batteries. Banana has one of there batteries fitted. The handy part is they are right next door to a cafe that does tasty bacon baguettes. Washed down with a mug of tea.
