Lovely sunny day today, for a change.
Off in a short while to Lautrec, the town that has lost most of its pink garlic harvest a month away from picking due to the hail.
They are having their usual festival and this arvo a soap box derby.
Hope it...
On another fred someone asked me if I had a brother called Ollie.

My dad suffered with "mental health issues" all his life after his fiancée died, from TB possibly contracted from him, when he didn't even know he had it.
I once came back from holiday to find he was in a mental hospital.
The docs there told him...
I had a girlfriend in Lille who owned a white Renault 4. They were so common that she had the sense to stencil a small but easily visible design around the radio aerial just above the windscreen, made it much easier to find in a car park.

Here is a little poem "wot I rote".
There is no cause for alarm. I had a brief black dog moment the other day that had me sink rather low for a brief time; and it made me reflect on how we are conditioned to respond to such moods and I thought...

Buying one for £5 and flogging it for £10 to a scrap yard, feeling I had been a real clever dick/Kevstar!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣
Mind it was pink 😋, the engine sounded like a bag of bolts and...
She was very serious when it came to bedroom antics. War and Peace she would not have had to have brought round as I already had a copy. And when it comes to the bedroom all it would have been any good for would have been as a soporific!

Funnily I had heard that before, about the crims preferring the 3.4. Weird to hear it confirmed.
What he didn't mention was the sheer luxury of the interior.
Love it and wish I had one again!
Other things to mention.
good: it's done 140,000miles. It's not done any towing. It's been pretty well looked after (insane amount of receipts with it).
Bad: I don't get selected gear notifications on the dash. I don't even get the warning...
So after further investigation found that turbo knackered as not been getting oil! Changed all filters, including fuel and noticed centrifugal filter was difficult to turn and was a bugger to remove. I'm gonna go full monty and get sump off...

Knowing how rally cars are built and the trauma prevention methods employed, as far as what the crews have to wear, I am always a bit surprised when this happens.
But if you fly off the track and hit a tree... well, they take no...
