Filled the Range Rover up then dropped the dog off at the boarding kennels, then straight down to Sanderstead near Croydon, nautical memorabilia being valued tomorrow morning then off to auction with it. Hopefully then we can get this house on the market don't want to be making this trip through the summer.

Went for a ride around the north Cotswolds earlier today, for no other reason than to go for a ride.

Had 4 seasons in about 10 miles, the weather is berserk ;D

spent most of yesterday and today  trying to untangle the across dash (main ) wiring loom, the oil, ign and starter solenoid wires now run to the right of dash instead of going round the l/h and across front of engine. Had to lengthen wires to relay box so it would sit on left of dash , gradually working it out till it fits the Austin tidy.

Boxster had a wash yesterday as it was its 21st birthday.  ;D Today changed one of its number plate bulbs and tried to find out why the rear fog light doesnt work.
I must say, now Im getting a bit more used to it, its a superb car to drive. Induction and exhaust note is lovely, and it handles beautifully.
Not all that quick by todays standards, with 220bhp, but quick enough to have fun.
Ive reverted  to going out for a drive  for no particular reason, other than enjoyment. ::)

Gave TBE a sound spanking on the way back from a spot of model flying at lunchtime. Thoroughly enjoyed that little spin :)
