Bit of a coincidence Andy I'm treating Mrs Noc to a weekend in Bruges on the same dates you are all going Dutch.

I've got a spare alternator I can pack, along with my usual emergency spares - cam and crank sensors, UBP and so on, so if you get caught short one of your posse is more than welcome to pick up anything.

And if you see a Platinum Gold 75 on the A16 or E40 give us a wave.

I have film from the cliff top by the castle, of a ferry trying to get into the harbour, and you could see the front bottom of the boat. It did not make it in. Glad I And my car was not on it. 35 minutes on the shuttle, wind, rain, no one being sick all over the place. What more could you want.
