Yesterday I watched the AA man drain £20 of unleaded from our D5 after my wife put it in and drove the 1 mile home before realising the mistake when the car would no longer start.

Luckily no harm done. Once removed and replaced with diesel it is all running fine again. She is £220 poorer though.

Thursday to be exact, front brake pads replaced. The old ones were about 3/4's worn. But we're 'singing' on light braking.....

Went to see Joe Brown at the Stables MK last night. 76 years old, and still going strong. That's Joe, not me.......

fitted the HANDBRAKE GAITER today, may do the gear stick gaiter tomorrow
very well made and good price, mine are very worn so it does look nice, and they add 12.45 BHP
