What did you do with your Range Rover today

Update on Ukraine trip I was released from hospital 3 weeks ago and decided to take it easy and took 2 days to get to Kiev and take another look mat the Micro miniatures as they change them around every so often this time i was impressed by a fob watch that had a 3 mm diameter and also worked and there were 130 working parts to it.

moving on from there we went to the black sea and the roads deteriorated and at one stage i was douing 10 km p h for about 4 hrs. then on to Odessa just another big town.

from Odessa we headed for the Carpathian mountains looking fo things to see on the way getting a bit fed u[ with churches and places. Looking on the map we see world heritage sites called strauves arc points so looked it up on internet and came up with an explanation google it if your interested, anyway there are three of them here in Ukraine and we managed to find one of them nowhere near the coordinates given but looking for them took us to some intresting villages that would be right at home in the 1950s.

next on the list was a town with a puppet theatre and a synagogue and also some mini statues one of them being John Lord of the band deep purple. Why u may ask google it again. but also finding them is a challenge as they are only 6 in high and perched on railings overlooking the river.

now the Visa is nearly outso we head out back to Poland and im thinking im glad i got Cooper tyres on 16 inch rims as the roads here are BAD with pot holes the size of bomb craters and some of the roads look like the middle of a war zone

One fault did show up and that was the drivers window mechanism played up and when i took the door card off found that the stupid pot rivets that hold the wider to the door had sheared so i replaced them with bolts and all is well

done about 4000 miles so far thinking of going to Belarus after Poland if we can get visas

My new sparks and O2 sensor have arrived so the mister is being put to work again, while I literally sit here blowing bubbles
On the plus side though we got my brake cap off

Back in the realm of P38 driver, instead of just owner

Starter came - is on, injectors, manifold, clear pipe mutilated. Static timing set
It runs!
Spills pi** everywhere but that’s usual for all of us at some point

I have been up to my usual though
It should be okay, one shouldn’t hurt? -

I think she may be trying to send me to my last house, judging by her panic attack at the ferry terminal . Every time I head to the pier she tells me to do a u -turn, then do another one when I drive away from it. View attachment 183312
