Sadly a pint of Jail Ale in The Dolphin isn’t a pint any longer☹️
A smudge over 3 hrs from Salop to Plymouth
A nice surprise to see @16valver.bsky.social on BBC4 just now
Sometimes, just as I’m dropping off to sleep, I think about the battle damage continuity between Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock.
I won’t sleep for a good while after that.
and covering up the bird poo marks etc that I still need to buff out
But of course, it’s now pouring down 😐
I should wash this more often but always worth it when it’s done.
All ready for a run down to Plymouth tomorrow. The last one for the foreseeable as it’s daughters graduation.
She’ll be reet and back home in no time 👍
I’m still waiting for Betty to be wrapped in the same colour scheme……
Well….it only seems right to buy an S40 T4 to complete the set with a bit of an ASBO model.
Oooh. That’s lovely. You could run that as a daily for years and it wouldn’t give you an ounce of bother.
It does being ‘a car’ very well.
Really looking forward to the series on this one.
The teatime toddle is thirsty work. The sossidge got plenty of pub fuss in the short time we were in.
Will do, beaut! 👍
Also, if you go on Wednesday, it’s market day in Mach too 👍
Was going to fit the new rear shocks to the MGF today.
Dear reader, I couldn’t be chewed with the faff today.
Are you going exploring whilst you’re there? May I suggest that you try Blasau in Machynlleth (@hubnut.bsky.social can vouch for how good it is)
Their food is unbelievable. The vegan strudel and custard slices are a highlight.

The time has come. Ruby is for sale.

I’ve spent more than £5k getting her back on the road and in tip-top condition.

Last on the road in the UK. 77k miles. 12 months MOT. Everything has been done.

Sensible offers between £2k-3k.

See what HubNut thought of it below.

How did she find THAT turning circle? 😆
Once she does a bit of stop/start traffic in an auto she’ll fully experience the magic. I must admit I do find the MGF a bit of pain on the occasion I’ve been in traffic.
More importantly…..did she like it?
Brilliant news. The end of an era but she’ll go to a good home.
A bit like my mission to make sure your S60 went to the right person.
I’ll stick the other fingers down in preparation of the next test
I like my glove there. It adds character.
