Good morning all, how is everyone?

Good morning Richard, I admire your patience and understanding in regards to what happened to your car. It was an accident and the main thing is, no one was hurt.

I am looking forward to getting away to the tropics for the winter and I am sorry I didn’t get to see my mates this time round, partly due to car repairs and someone else’s commitments to see her friends and family. The only thing outstanding with the car since having the engine changed, is a slow drop in the coolant level which I am going to leave to the mechanic to sort out whilst the car is in storage.

Quite a lot was done to the car this summer: a replacement engine, the belts were changed, new ABS sensors, the boot lid PCB was repaired and the no plate lights were upgraded, thank you Ed for soldering the PCB. The VIS motors were changed for the Stocktake upgrades, thank you Dave and a big thanks to Andy who offered to drive to Bristol to repair the ABS. I was gob smacked by his offer, what a guy, exceedingly generous

Morning Phil, It's dreary rainy day here & the highlight of my day is ordering some new underwear & sweaters I've been told by the kamp kommandant that I look like a scruffy get and it looks like my washed out comfy 'sloppy joe' sweaters will get the heave ho.

I was stuck on a coach job last night, which ran late, then the A1 north was closed, so got diverted south, then I peeled off from the diversion route and followed another route north. By the time I got dropped off, cleaned the coach and got home, it was turned midnight. Will be on a go slow this morning.
It’s bright, but cool and blustery this morning.



Ouch! I know the feeling well Rich. Never had this problem with steel bumpers and kerb rashed alloy wheels
I need to get a steel of steel wheels for our car.

Cool

Morning all from stormy Cornwall.

Looks like it’s going to be a rough couple of days.

Staying in today.

Morning - it's a right mucky day here this morning - wet, dark, lots of surface water from overnight rain - and cold.
I've got the school run to do in the next few minutes - might postpone the weekend shopping 'til Saturday

Only 45/50 miles north of you Rod,but it’s dry here, been raining and still a little overcast, but looks promising.

Bright sunny day and clear sky here but a bit chilly nonetheless.
