New alternator could be duff. It does happen.

I'm assuming they impounded the car for no insurance.

Sad news. I always liked him. RIP.

You can buy individual sockets at Halfords and their Advanced stuff is excellent with a lifetime warranty.

Mapp gas.

I love the peace and quiet of Buttermere. I wish I could attach a video. Just after this an F35 went blasting over. I saw about six of them as I came down the side of the lake from Fleetwith Pike. I stuck it on Youtube.

Diesel is marginally cheaper. But not enough to be worth while driving down to Keady, which is just across the border. It used to be a lot cheaper and I'd always fill up when I went down to see my ma.

Scottish and Cumbrian people. What's the average diesel price like in your neck of the woods? I'll be getting on the boat to go to the Lakes on Satdy morning and don't know whether to fill up over here or over there.
