We could meet in Henton. Not far from here. I'm guessing there might be some toys to see there?
Incidentally, I told MrGorsky you had given him some presents but he doesn't know what yet as he hasn't been up.

That’s very kind mate. Four people have offered to lend me a press but I’m reluctant as I’m sure it’s gonna get damaged in the process. Got this £50 one and was amazingly delivered yesterday if it survives the whole axle il be pleased. Only one leg is threaded It’s heavy but obviously of oriental origin I’m bound to mash it
Auto parts store is open few hrs tomorrow morning so il pop there get some EP90 loctite etc before risk being stranded. Joints going in the freezer now

That's looks like the same one I used, it's done 2 P38's and is still in good order. Lubricate the thread well before use.That’s very kind mate.

Looks like the one we got. Probably from the same factory.

I bit the bullet and took her to Newcastle Airport has my holiday was way overdue, 115 miles, it was great. Fly to Malta with Jet2 apart from the covid requirements and associated paperwork all was good. 14 days later, back to the car, a bit dusty, sat for that time, fired up, lovely drive home. great car.

Having done the drive to and from Newcastle airport, we had to pick up our dog from my daughter in Bicester, in view of the petrol prices, I was amazed at people doing over 70 in some cases, it would seem that the price is not as much of a problem that as been reported, no, it wasn't in the RR, but in the T-Roc, which does about 48mpg, however, we had to fill up in Bicester ( Tesco ), they were queuing at the pumps £1.66 a ltr
Probably because the news went and said prices will rise by 10 to 15p a litre on Sunday, so people are freaking the **** out... again.
The worst thing about a blue car, black wheels don't look quite right.

Metaphorically. I still have the RR, but it needs a medically induced coma to fix some things. Our son loaned us the Tahoe in the interim.
Yes.
Today I wafted the girls (wife, daughter, step daughter and grandchildren to lunch, the theatre (Chicago (the show not the city)) , later dropped them off at the Ed Sheeran concert and will be escorting them home later (without having to charge it)

Well, yes, occasionally a backup car is required but how many vehicles are still on the road at these ages?!
